After all, the fewer people who have COVID, the fewer they can pass it on to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It doesn\u2019t matter if a 40 year old gets it before a 70 year old &#8211; if both are jabbed within days of each other. But right now, we have decided to administer it to people who are considered \u2018at risk\u2019 first. That\u2019s laudable at first glance, but it isn\u2019t until you start considering the logistics of doing that that you start realising it is just a series of accidents waiting to happen. We\u2019ve already seen that it results in situations where <a title=\"Vaccine Rollout \u2013 Managed By Idiots (In The UK)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.diaryofanadi.co.uk\/?p=25576\">incompetent bureaucrats make mistakes which result in vaccine being thrown away because it hasn\u2019t been properly refrigerated<\/a>. As a result, we\u2019re not getting it to enough people anywhere <strong>&#8211; no matter what their age or vulnerability.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting the vaccine to care homes, which are often in remote locations not on the government\u2019s Big Atlas of the UK &#8211; anywhere outside London, for example &#8211; is fraught with problems, in spite of what the imbecile Johnson keeps saying. There are over 18,000 care homes in the UK, with just over 400,000 residents. Yet there are barely 7,000 GP surgeries covering the entire remaining population of over 60 million! On top of that, GP surgeries are already able to give vaccinations, whereas many care home staff will not be. It\u2019s obvious who should be administering the vaccine right now in order to stop the spread.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This idiotic approach initially resulted in the decision to administer the second dose after 12 weeks instead of three &#8211; something that wasn\u2019t part of the clinical trials that led to it being approved, and that\u2019s all tangled up with the new, highly infectious variant sending the R rate skywards. In the meantime, they\u2019re focusing on getting temperature and time-sensitive vaccine shipped to remote locations at the likely expense of ruining a lot of it. This is why the company I used to work for <strong>must<\/strong> be involved somewhere. It is incompetence to the max.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Look, you f***ing idiots.<strong> Just vaccinate as many people as possible, as soon as possible.<\/strong> By all means, aim to vaccinate the <strong>same<\/strong> people with the <strong>second<\/strong> dose in your calculations based on availability, but stop pissing around working out who to vaccinate first. It automatically leads to delays and screw ups. And fine, since you\u2019ve spent the whole summer arguing that \u2018young people don\u2019t die from COVID\u2019 then don&#8217;t prioritise them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just get the shots out and into someone\u2019s arm! The workforce\u2019s arm. Use GPs and pharmacies. The more people there are who are protected, the more <strong>everyone else<\/strong> will be protected. Especially in the care homes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The government is targeting 2 million doses a week, yet they\u2019ve barely managed a million in a month to date. They have <strong>no<\/strong> chance if they keep pissing about trying to get it to care homes before anywhere else, because too much can go wrong. It <strong>has<\/strong> gone wrong. And much more <strong>will<\/strong> go wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vaccinating <strong>anyone<\/strong> provides protection to care homes. Not as much as if you <strong>only<\/strong> vaccinated care homes, but infinitely more than what is happening right now. Then, don\u2019t let <strong>anyone<\/strong> who hasn\u2019t been vaccinated anywhere near a care home, and if they attempt to do so for any reason, jail them. It\u2019s a far easier solution. Christ, we are so nearly out of this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Pfizer vaccine\u2019s storage limitations were always going to be a challenge for the incompetents who run this country and healthcare system. But my worry is that the Oxford vaccine\u2019s fewer limitations plays into their hands even more, because it allows them to be bureaucratically incompetent without the obvious and measurable wastage to highlight it. Creating a logistics situation that rivals a Gordian Knot plays into their hands still further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don\u2019t believe me, <a title=\"Coronavirus: Medics complain of 'bureaucracy' in bid to join Covid vaccine effort\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/news\/uk-55516277\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">look at this story on the BBC today<\/a>.
