Tony McManus
Back in 1775, Colonial authorities in New Hampshire took a census of its inhabitants and reported the total number of people then in Dover as 1,666. There were 410 males under the age of 16, 786 females, 342 males between the ages of 16 and 50 not in the army, and 74 males over the age of 50, a decidedly young population. In addition, there were 342 males gone in the army,  a decidedly large percentage of the whole.  There was one final category: 26  negros and slaves for life .

Sir Chris Whitty, the chief medical officer for England, has said the “the great majority of the protection is given by the first vaccine” and that “the second will top that up and extend it over time.”
The British Society for Immunology signaled support for the strategy as a short-term measure given the “unprecedented situation” brought on by the pandemic, although it acknowledged that uncertainties remain given the plan is not based on clinical trials. ....
