Nah, booster and before Monday just a warning how they are rolling.
The NHS booster jab rollout will deliver 35 million doses to over-50s and the most vulnerable over 13 weeks from Sep 6 to save the country from another lockdown this winter.
But won't Barry want to know if it is a lockdown as well when the boosters don't work?

I have a COVID test every single day I attend site and if a LF test is positive I go and have a PCR test as Public Health England do not recognise LF tests. So no, we all have the same rules dependent on what your work dictates.

Quite.  I know several people who due to occupation have a similar regime to that.

If you can't read it here's a taster:
Ministers and civil servants at three government departments are able to avoid self-isolation after being quietly invited to join a special pilot scheme that allows them to take daily tests and return to work, The Telegraph can disclose.

The scheme, nicknamed a Monopoly-style "get of jail free card" by MPs, is understood to have been used by Michael Gove, the Cabinet Office minister, to avoid self-isolating when he returned from watching the Champions League final in Porto in May.

Government sources confirmed that three Whitehall departments, including all staff and ministers who work in the Cabinet Office and 10 Downing Street, had secretly signed up to the "daily contact testing workplace pilot".

The Telegraph understands that several officials in 10 Downing Street have been able to use the scheme to return to work immediately after being notified by the NHS Covid-19 app.


One rule for us and one rule for you plebs. Do you get it yet?

I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you.

Anyway, here is the mask that most definitely works against the covid virus, probably as long as there isn't an accident.

Not great for the street cred, maybe a little much for the fashion conscious.

I would rather not thanks.

Yes, it's my favourite star trek quote. However in this case, it seems appropriate ...

Surely we have needed Government more than at any other time during the last 18 months. Certainly avoiding wholesale quarantine needs to be avoided. Isn't it a bit petty to judge members of government/Civil Servants who really need to be present at work, for trying something out to see if it works? I have no doubt that free tests won't be around for very much longer. It's not them and us it's a relatively small number of people trying to keep going to serve the rest of us. Why has everything got to be so vindictive?

Is that regime any different from what members of the public can opt to do? Went to Tottenham Hale shopping complex early this morning and there were tests on offer to employees and the public...

I guess they will be needing a booster then.
Turbo boost will be essential, and maybe a paper bag over the head to protect the boost.  😁

According to the telegraph, you are right, BOTH people had indeed been fully vaccinated...

Well that's a bit old, this newer news says it's 257 deaths (of course they probably just had the flu), but either way, the vax looks so so effective.  😁

According to Sky News, most people who died with the Delta Scariant had been fully vaccinated.
