How many have been vaccinated so far?
Discussion
Looking at the 10 tiers:
https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/covid-1...
What is the estimate for 1-9 to have received/offered both jabs and for them to have had time to be effective? Is that linked to the June 21 date?

just for clarity - Im all for the vaccine. Its great for the at risk and anyone that wants it.
Im all for social distancing, washing hands and the first lock down
Im all for sensible precautions that dont do more damage then the virus.
anyway back on topic.
when are the 5-9 being vaccinated any time scale on that or the 10-14 age group? will they need a booster every year to maintain their covid/nhs passport as being valid.

However, so far there is no new on when 5-9 will vaccinated, They are trialling 6 month to 11 year olds with Moderna and Pfizer at the moment.
They expect 12+ year old to start their jabs in September.
I would imagine a booster would be the norm, why would they be any different.
If passports apply to children, then yes, they will require the individual to maintain the jabs.
Again, Google answered that for me, not sure if that satisfies you?
This thread was purely about numbers, can we not keep it this way??

Is there any transmission going on? Would appear not given the “data”
If there was no transmission going on then we'd be down to no cases, which hasn't happened.Where are you geting the idea from that people aren't catching it?
There are very few people catching it - you are being pedantic.

It is amazing that you seem to have no concerns vaccinating large numbers of children on a yearly (or more) basis.
Still as long as this thread can continue to be about the numbers, eh?

Are you a zero covid advocate?
There are very few people catching it - you are being pedantic.
No, I'm not, and it's not pedantic pointing out that you posted something a bit sily. Transmission is going on. Its going on in the UK, and it;s going on massively elsewhere. Claiming that it isn't's just wrong.There are very few people catching it - you are being pedantic.

What are your concerns then?It is amazing that you seem to have no concerns vaccinating large numbers of children on a yearly (or more) basis.

I took my little boy for his booster yesterday. He's had his measles vaccine too, despite measles being nearly nonexistant in the UK. Polio as well, although that's pretty much unheard of nowadays.
Going from your weird views you probably think that it was wrong to take him, as he's one of a large number of children (nearly all) being vaccinated against diseases that are increadibly rare.
I guess he's fortunate really that his dad used to be a scientist, so understands the numbers a bit better than some.

I didn’t give you any reason to state that I would think it was wrong to vaccinate (measles/polio) - my children have been vaccinated too.
I don’t know how old your son is but are you quite happy to have him vaccinated with the covid vaccine at such a young developmental age?

And what is the result of that very low (in this country) transmission?
If you go back to early January, the result of the "very low" transmission resulted in around 1 in 50 people in the country with an active covid infection, and in some boroughs the rate was as high as 1 in 15 people. The rate is far lower now of course, but that it also partially as a result of 50%+ of the population being vaccinated.

Is it not important to question the numbers of different cohorts vaccinated and the effectiveness thereof?
Or do you wish the thread to be limited to pure numbers?
