You'll have to wait until next year's tattie harvest in Scotland Steels
Ten days ago you promised we would have an approved Oxford/AZ vaccine by now.......have a word with whatever friend sold you this one.
No crowing (well just a bit) we desperately need this approved, because we aren’t getting any more Pfizer stuff or any of the new Moderna stuff until March/April. I read ‘before the end of the year’. I don’t think there are huge problems with the vaccine, just the way the trial results were reported. We need a bit of good news this week.
What do you reckon on Handcock’s stock today, presiding over an ‘out of control’ virus?
Little Gem of a joke there.
Whatever gave you the impression I was worried about anything?
I'm not worried in the slightest. Just reacting to what I see and hear in the UK media.
Yes, I mean the UK.
So, to conclude, shelves are full at the moment. None of the lorries waiting at ports around Europe are carrying food either in or out of the UK. It is all a media conspiracy. Hopefully your shelves continue to be full over the festive period.
You had a 3 day countdown from something I heard a while back? Bloody hell Sb only stock that has gone down is yours.
On a serious note Hancock seemed happy when they mentioned that on Sunday. I don’t work for the regulators they all said within two weeks. Obviously a day or two behind. However you are spot on we need some good news as every time I turn on the TV I hear doom and gloom.

Tuning in just in case he’s doing the honourable thing and taking a cyanide pill live on air. Feels unlikely based on the first minute or so but I’m hopeful.
So Peston uses the COVID press conference ask a stupidly loaded question about Brexit, which even a child can dodge. Now there is a man who’s stock has definitely fallen in recent months, and seems to dig himself a deeper hole at every opportunity.
Vallance is being very disingenuous. The new variant might not be more deadly in itself, but that fact that it is transmitted much more easily will de facto put up the death rates in the short term as more people will catch it and a proportion of them will get very sick and need hospitalisation, and the hospitals we are told can’t cope.

Yet a load more of drivel. When will this clown ****ing learn not to say things he can never ever stick to! No bloody wonder people just do what they like when they like. Sooner the government can replace him the better.
I'd be more interested if Boris told me where I could get my hands on a PS5 for my lads xmas present.
Some interesting data on genomic sequencing of COVID here: https://covidcg.org/?tab=global_sequencing
[Has to be on a laptop, not phone]
One thing we can rightly be proud of is the UK's leadership in the field of genomics. We've conducted far more genetic testing of COVID cases (55.9 sequences per 1000 cases) than most of our European neighbors (0.473 per 1000 in Germany, or 0.925 per 1000 in France). Could explain why we are 'seeing' the new strain and other countries near us are not.

I’d be very surprised if this new variant wasn’t in most European countries already. We might be a bit ahead of the curve for a change.
Apparently lettuce shortage in Tesco's is just the tip of the iceberg
