[News] The Coronavirus Good News thread

[blue-shifted]

Worth mentioning that "capacity" is not the same as jabs given, but it's still very, very encouraging news - along with the new info from Israel that vaccines are driving down infections significantly, we can start to feel a bit more certain that summer is looking much brighter.

Bet it will piss down ...

Sorry good new thread

ZOE app continues to project new cases down - now at 53k a day, from a recent peak of 70k.

Had a text from my surgery earlier saying vaccinations have commenced at Brighton Racecourse - Im nowhere near the front of the queue, but it'll be great to really start rattling through Brighton residents with the extra capacity it gives us up there.

Could see over the last few days that Westcourt in Rustington has started vaccinating.

My Dad has his vaccine appointment on Saturday. Now I know that's not particularly good news for any of you guys, but I'm please about it.

248k jabs done yesterday in England alone. So UK likely to be around 275k or so. Let’s go.

Front page of the Mail today suggests there is now the material for 21m jabs in the country - not all approved yet of course, but it’s here.

Coronavirus good news thread permanently in the top 3 or 4 on the board means it's a good day

Both in laws have had their first jab and my 30 year old son who has a chronic lung complaint is getting his on the19th much to his parents delight �� as we have been so worried about him as he lives in London.
