    Britain could be free of lockdowns and strict coronavirus restrictions by the end of February, while the Oxford vaccine is reportedly set for approval ‘within days’.

    Some 12 to 15 million people who are most at risk of dying from the virus have also been identified by officials.

    Vaccines Minister Nadhim Zahawi said the ‘heroic efforts’ of the team at the University of Oxford ‘have paid off’. ‘From day one of the pandemic, people from across the nation have been working day and night to find a safe and effective Covid-19 vaccine. ‘We have seen the best of British at every stage, from our world-leading scientists working around the clock to carry out vital research, to builders and engineers constructing new facilities.’

    He said the ‘UK-wide effort’, including manufacturers’ efforts and people participating in clinical trials, shows how ‘fantastic’ the nation is. Despite Pfizer saying two doses are necessary to ‘provide the maximum protection’ ministers reportedly are debating giving people one jab instead of two. The idea to accelerate the programme is supported by Professor David Salisbury, who ran immunisation at the Department of Health until 2003. Professor Salisbury said: ‘You give one dose you get 91 per cent [protection]. You give two doses and you get 95 per cent. ‘You are only gaining 4 per cent for giving the second dose.’

    I’m quite happy for you to go first. Then we can see if you develop any unusual side effects, like growing a pair of tits, or a functioning brain.

    I’m quite partial myself. Though somewhat less so, if their owner also has a cock.

    Have you seen the follow up to that? The Hospital saw that people were questioning the validity, so they say that they gave him another shot the next day, which wasn't videoed, to prove it was all genuine. :emoticon-0102-bigsm
