Using that, I'm going backwards(later dates given) since Thursday. No change to the numbers in front of me though.

Based on your profile, there are between 6,029,525 and 9,926,645 people in front of you in the queue for a COVID vaccine across the UK.

📅 Given a vaccination rate of 1,000,000 a week and an uptake of 70.6%, you should expect to receive your vaccine between 28/01/2021 and 24/02/2021.

I know, the only thing to change on the result was the likely date period.
Answers remained the same.

The numbers already done will have changed in their equations.

I'd say this guy should be thrown out of office, not for refusing to take the vaccine, but because he's shown a complete lack of critical reasoning skills, making him nothing short of an imbecile.

I think if that were an accepted reason to recall a politician, we'd have a different UK PM and POTUS by now!

But then, would anyone who can reason want either job just now?

I wonder where they've parked up the refrigerated vaccine carrying HGVs in the freight lorry queue in Calais. [or is it all being handled by the military via an air bridge...]

It’s coming in by air

Am slightly puzzled by the later start of many European countries.
Any theories?

Emergency licencing here and in America. Different regulators.

EU has a combined approach that may well pay off when things get going.

Not underplaying anything to do with vaccines, but the 450,000 people vaccinated is small change to this virus even before B.1.1.7. It's a massive psychological boost and offers hope to the population.

EU countries can catch us up quickly with a properly run program.

yes I know - but why so much slower on that?

Surely individual EU countries don't have to wait for a nod from above?

Hancock reckoned being out of the EU enabled us to move faster.

Greeted by howls of derision by the usual remain zealots.

The proof may lie in the pudding.

The actual head of the actual MHRA confirmed that the approval was granted under the existing EU regulations.
