BBC Politics Wales programme
With early analysis suggesting two doses of a Covid-19 vaccine do not offer sufficient protection against the new Omicron variant, the rollout of the booster programme has been escalated.As two doses of a vaccine cannot provide enough protection against Omicron, a booster is "vital"In the run-up to Christmas, the Welsh government is urging people to take a lateral flow test before going out, meeting outdoors if possible, and leaving a day between social events.
He also added: "But I think we may well see a situation where, despite all those measures and with good compliance to those measures, we may still find that the case numbers and the burden on the system may be such that we might need additional restrictions." The current situation in the Hywel Dda Health Board in west Wales is "really challenging at the moment", according to its chief executive.
One of the main concerns with Omicron is that a wave of cases could spread widely and quickly in a short space of time, leading to workforce pressures if a significant number of people are self-isolating. "Clearly, as things ramp up, we're going to need to make decisions about where we prioritise those things because we're not going to be able to keep them all going if some of the predictions, some of the modelling, comes true."Andrew Morgan said plans were being put in place in case a large number of council workers caught the virus
Media Manipulation Part 2
They keep saying that
1 on 3rd December 159 on 17th December best it get a wiggle on
Even if a govt adviser says 'tsunami', it doesn't mean you can't question their use of the word. You could push them to qualify what they mean. You could say to them: 'that's an exaggeration.' But no. No challenge is made. Free ride for adviser.
Hospital admissions? have these people short memories about what they told us 20 months ago, you cannot change the goalpost to suit you
It’s the common cold for fucks sake,but milder ! This shits boring now !
Has anyone at the BBC thought 'we have more than a third of the population that can be triple jabbed, actually triple jabbed'...therefore (a) where's this 'tsunami' hitting? (b) were the vaccines a waste? Is there nobody at the BBC who can question?
we need to remember all these experts in the weeks ahead
If there's a 'tsunami' where are the global deaths? The UK is now getting this Omicron, but what are the hospitalisations and death rates of countries who had this earlier? Has nobody got any inquisitiveness about them?
Fearmongering is unnecessary. Just look at the figures.
