Fingers crossed the vaccine works.

Bit misleading. As has been explained on here before, the EU cannot block any member state from approving for use any drug it wants. What it can insist on is that the drug has been through an approval process, either at EU level (the European Medicines Agency) or at national level. As indeed should the people taking the drugs. Now, I don’t know if Ireland has its own drugs regulatory system or whether it leaves it to the EU. If it doesn’t you will depend on the EMA. The EMA does seem to be slow (or perhaps thorough is a better word), but the Oxford/AZ vaccine was only submitted to them for approval last week by AZ, and they expect a decision by 29 January. I suppose Ireland could say ‘we’ll just do whatever the UK does’ but that might be a bit tricky politically in several ways.

Cheers Yorkie. Family won’t let me forget this one, on the champagne now before the heavy red with dinner. Feel a bit odd to be honest, distracting myself.

Happy birthday sb_73. Have a drink on us <cheers>
I did wonder what the 73 referred to in your account name, clearly it is not your birth year. Remember, you are only as young as you feel.:emoticon-0137-clapp

Time to come clean. The 73 is a mistake, it should be 72, which is the year I first went to Loftus Road, QPR 3 Cardiff City 0, hooked. Too thick to know how to change the user name, so it stuck.

How I wish 73 was my birth year. Or do I? Hmmmm, probably not.

I hope you particularly celebrated the 21st second of the 21st minute of the 21st hour of the 21st day of the 21st year of the 21st century.

For ****'s sake. Newsnight showing graphs purporting to represent numbers of Covid cases going back to early 2020. If you were to believe these, you would think that there were four of five times as many cases now as there were in March last year. Utter bollocks.

Ultra-orthodox Jews. They’ll have been too busy shagging their own sisters and telling each other god will keep them safe from the plague to adhere to an inconvenience like social distancing. Similar in the equivalent communities in Israel and probably the extremes of other religions such as Mormons.
