    Yep. Double jabbed. But 60% of the people in UK hospitals, with Covid, have been double vaccinated - which is not convincing me that I'm safe! Yes, I understand the more people that are vaccinated, the higher that percentage will be - but it's not looking like a 'magic bullet' to me right now. :(

      Yes, I know, there was never going to be a 'good' time - but: Cases up 41% week on week. Hospital admission up 40% week on week. Deaths up 48% week on week. I respect everyone's right to now go back to 'normal' if they wish, but I'm staying in lockdown - particularly now that everyone else is 'free' to infect me.

        M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

                OK, that's a bit better. When he said 60% vaccinated yesterday, he did seem quite calm. The rest of us were: WTF! :wtf:

                  Anything possible in statistics. :) ..... It's week on week percentage increase. Deaths are also, currently, relatively low, (200 - two weeks ago; 296 - last week), so it doesn't take many to create a significant % increase.

                          Wow! Impressive! :confused: But you guys are ahead of the curve on lifting restrictions (and then re-imposing them :doh: ). I wouldn't be surprised if we are matching that within a couple of weeks and then following your lead on reintroducing lockdown! :(

                              We're in lockdown again!? Wait, were we ever in lockdown? A festival I had planned was cancelled, so I guess something's going on :sigh: Other than that, no one over here seems to mind anymore.

                                      And the other 39.5% had only 1 of the 2 jabs?

                                        60% vaccinated? That sounds odd. In the US %99.7 of those being hospitalised are unvaccinated.

                                        - I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.
