Tom Harwood @tomhfh Replying to @tomhfh And guess which country has secured the greatest and broadest vaccine access pool for its citizens? please log in to view this image did the eu not like novavax
If I’m reading those two graphs correctly we’ve spent marginally less than the EU for far less return in terms of absolute number of vaccines. Also not really relevant but Harwood is a soggy biscuit for the far right at their parties.
Don’t get me wrong it’s a very good thing on paper although I dread to think how badly we’ll go about importing and administering it if our track record on everything else logistically with Corona is anything to go by let alone the chance for there to be some sort of grift involved somewhere along the line. Plus Brexit obvs and all the additional fun that can bring to the process.

Govt standard PCR tests. First major comparison, shows whole Govt strategy possibly based on flawed data (as many been saying for months) Urgent statement please @MattHancock please log in to view this image 1 whats a lateral flow test
Yeah, I hadn’t realised that if you were a Tory peer, MP, donor or whatever there was an explicit fast track to give your mates, no matter how ill qualified, loads of money, often before any due diligence was even started. Surely this should be investigated as a crime?
The Italian fella who got £21m for acting as an intermediary was particularly deserving. As Starmer pointed out at PMQs, this was exactly the amount that the government couldn't come up with to feed kids.
Loads of previous on this... Remember the firm that was hired to run ferry's across the channel...and they didn't even own a dingy. Remember the person who runs the trace and trace system, who was on the The Jockey Club Board
Remind me who that would be. Or let me guess, it’s Robert Generic in his spare time, after he’s finished awarding grants to his own constituency, or giving planning permission against local wishes to Tory donors. Yeah, he really understands corruption.
It’s the test that the army have been using in Liverpool. I believe it searches for viral protein instead of viral RNA and is quantitative not just qualitative. Mike Yeadon was talking about it on talk radio yesterday and said one of the tests, either the PCR or LFT is seriously flawed.
Yeadon seems to genuinely believe there is nothing left to worry about. Have a listen, 15 mins or so I think. Interestingly, in the longer interview from a few weeks back, he was quite scathing of government and their advisors, but now, whilst maintaining his view, he suggests everyone has been trying their best to do the right things, but that genuine errors have been made.
Rather odd that Oxford/AZ felt it necessary to say it’s vaccine appears to works well in the elderly, based on an early phase trial with tiny numbers of patients, without releasing any actual data that I can see, just that it has an immune response. No large scale, more definitive data until ‘about Christmas’. This was the one that, in a fit of Johnsonesque over promising, the researchers originally said would be available by September. I reckon this will be the vaccine that most of us, especially in the less vulnerable category, will end up getting.
