The R number, which estimates the growth rate of the pandemic, currently sits at between 0.8 and 1 - suggesting the virus may be on the decline as lockdown begins to take effect.to bring the number of new infections down, but warned the NHS remained under"enormous" pressure.variants not yet discovered and admitted the government is not sure whether schools in England will reopen fully by Easter.
Mr Hancock added that current rules are helping to"bring cases down", but that the country is a"long, long, long way from them being low enough" to ease the lockdown. The seven-day rolling average on positive tests shows that infections are now falling, which suggests that lockdown may be having an effect on case rates.

Elderly vulnerable will have had both doses by the time the brakes are take off and people start mixing again. Government has a choice between giving 2m people 70% immunity or 1m people 95% immunity with the same amount of vaccine & chose the first option. I agree with them.
If everyone (those who do not need to shield) stopped wearing masks tomorrow this phase of the evil stunt would be over. It's those virtue signalling mask wearers that are responsible for perpetuating this plandemic.
Even when we are the best in the world, the left wing media does nothing but find activists to criticise the government. Shocking neglect of impartiality.

Surely everybody knows this already? Covid is dominating literally every news channel, advert break, twitter feed, etc. None of it is news, it’s just constant noise. Tell us when something changes.

Where is the detailed evidence from JCVI to justify their decision to delay the second dose? The health of the most vulnerable in society is being gambled with. Pfizer has said don’t do it, WHO says don’t do it, no other country is doing it. Please publish the evidence.
On RidgeOnSunday you balanced that interview with the evidence for spacing them out, why not in your tweets?
To form an orderly queue is the British way... and it works. In other countries they see an acquaintance come through the door and they call them to the front and gossip for ages. Tell me I'm wrong about that.
Can confirm that to be true. Had mine yesterday. Very efficient. The staff and volunteers did an amazing job making sure everything ran smoothly. Not a moment wasted. Atmosphere wonderful, full of optimism & positivity. Such a change from all the sadness the NHS is witnessing 👍
