Page 82 of Coronavirus, anyone starting to get worried?

Testing centre I went to was staffed by the Army and to be fair everyone in the queue was masked and distanced.

Done anything constructive in lockdown II?Yep, got a new dish wash machine, its heater packed in after 8 years, and followed covid rules to the letter, pulled the old machine outside for re-cycle, and waited for kerb side delivery. Not looking forward to hauling it inside all the way to the kitchen.

Lorry arrived, two guys unloaded new machine, and said are you on your own today sir, and I said yes, and they actually took the new machine into the kitchen, and took the packaging away. Great! Sigh of relief not having to haul it in.

You don't realise all the things people do as standard at work, till you lose it, due to covid rules. These delivery guys went way beyond their covid remit. I did open the kitchen window for a few hours though, to change the air, LOL.

Edit today: I hate plumbing....Never realised the pump pressure when emptying is double that of the old machine, and drain water was flying out everywhere, as the drain hose was just pushed down a vertical plastic drain pipe and duck taped (as per the former installation). I had to go to the store and buy additional piping and that tapered push fit hose connection with a jubilee clip , set me back a tenner, all to make it watertight. Job done.

Latest thing to hit the supermarkets, is a green go/red stop light above the door. If green you can enter, if store is busy red comes up and you have to wait for green.

I suppose this replaces security guard at door controlling entry.

Maybe they should link it up to the app to work through your smartwatch.

I think that's the thing that everyone who wants lockdown to continue needs to consider.

There are always those who can't lock down as other people rely on them.

Another vaccine with even more promising outcomes.

A 95% success rate from a study of 30,000 volunteers in a Stage III study. Analysis based on the first 95 to develop symptoms, of which 90 had the placebo.

This one from Moderna in the US hasn't been pre-ordered by the UK, so they'll probably be a bit of a wait, and probably a price gouge if/when it's certified. On the bright side, it can be stored at -20 degrees instead of -80, which will make it easier to distribute.

Wonder which injection we will all end up with?

If its the Russian injection we will know, as we will end up speaking Russian, and being able to jump into freezing rivers on command :D
