Hope so .So what do we reckon?
21st June will be the day normality returns? Its looking promising at the moment
It's just playing to the crowd isn't it? The contracts that were posted up implied no absolute commitment as far as I could seeRidiculous stuff from the EU really

Do these cretins not understand that primary manufacture of vaccines, medicines or whatever else technical is often beset by issues that are complex in nature and take time to solve?

Some countries aren’t using it are they?It won't make the vaccines arrive any sooner

Not sure about USA.Only Denmark I thought
They've not even approved it and have been sitting on millions of doses. They're now going to 'share' them with the rest of the world - doubt they'll even use it over there.Not sure about USA.
They are however going to release some, soon. Suspect that wouldn't have happened under the previous incumbent.They've not even approved it and have been sitting on millions of doses.

One would assume if you refuse the vaccine, you consider the risk of infection less than the risk of Covid, so wouldn't want to isolate anyway.My friend in Brussels has just told me that 150,000 elderly Belgians have refused the vaccine. Surely they will have to continue to isolate or risk infection and the figures will rise. I wonder what the figures are like in the UK.
That's how I see it too. I know the vaccines aren't 100% but surely it will affect the way Belgium plans to reduce it's restrictions.One would assume if you refuse the vaccine, you consider the risk of infection less than the risk of Covid, so wouldn't want to isolate anyway.
Who is footing the bill? Assume you don't get charged for the vaccine even in the US so is the government picking up the tab at over-inflated prices? Is treatment covered as well or are huge numbers of American's going to be paying for this for decades to come?Yep....and if thats not purely the result of the USA big pharma lobby....I'll eat my hat.
Why allow a "cost price" european vaccine into their domestic market when you've already got pfizer, moderna & Johnson johnson.......
Are the US donating the unused vaccine or selling it on?

I'm going to take a believe it when I see it stance I think. Events over the summer, well past the date that restrictions are supposedly being removed, are being cancelled on a daily basis - I've already had two today and one was a relatively small outdoor event that's not until September!"Get ready for a 'normal' summer: Nearly 70% of adults in England now have coronavirus antibodies" Nearly 70% of adults in England now have coronavirus antibodies

Depends who you want to listen to atm, it's all speculation.
Always knew you were a Telegraph subscriber.

The problem is that it’s a global pandemic, so we’re probably several years away from a return to true normality.The transmission news really is fantastic.
We have had enough data to understand the vaccine stops serious illness and hospitalisation in 92%+ of cases.
But to see that halving transmission is possible too really does bode well.
I got burnt last summer on here by being too vocal on normality needing to return, so more cautious this time round. However i will say, it definitely does look like were in the home stretch
I think a lot of people are still fairly cautious about it so I think it'll be fine. I don't get why the Torygraph is so bothered about social distancing, it needn't negatively impact your experience of going to a pub.The only thing you can be certain of is if we get to June and people lose their heads we could be back in the shit again

That's been my concern really. Look at Wembley this weekend, a condition of entry was masks being worn at all times which was totally ignored. If minimal restrictions remain in place to allow things to open and people ignore them we risk going backwards.The only thing you can be certain of is if we get to June and people lose their heads we could be back in the shit again

Not really, isn't this is just showing that India is the best placed runner up rather than any threat to the good old Kent variant which represents 99% of casesSomeone tell me this is nothing to worry about
