From true. there have been over 4000 cases of the delta variant and we also know from singapore and israel that they have been outbreaks with fully vaccinated people getting infected and in singapore those people are infected. so its quite a dangerous strategy, its not backed up dangerous strategy, its not backed up with any evidence at this point in time and the thinking appears to be that we look to be pushing people back to other places while putting others at risk.— others at risk. that is...

The sunday telegraph says health secretary matt hancock failed to tell the prime minister about a study showing the effectiveness of covid vaccines during a meeting to decide whether to extend restrictions in england. however, a government source tells the telegraph that "equivalent data" to the study was shown to borisjohnson and other senior ministers at the meeting. and i think this is all around the discussion about whether it is appropriate to keep these current measures in place for anothe...

Going up quite consistently now and the beginnings of a rise in hospitalisations. but in terms of the second part of your question, i think were all very optimistic that this will be different from the previous waves, and the early signs are that, indeed, it will be different. the age distribution of the hospitalisations is much more even over the different age ranges without that very large waiting towards the very elderly, which is a clear pointer that the vaccination programme is making a dif...

What happened over that time period? the numbers came down overall, which was good, but at the same time the delta variant started to enter the scene and you saw the numbers pop back up. that was primarily people who had not been vaccinated. we know this is a much more transmissible variant. the alpha variant was 50% more transmiscible before the strain, and the delta is -- in scotland a study showed the people infected with the delta variant was more likely to be hospitalized. so it appears to ...
