Ex prime ministers STFU
Discussion
All ex PMs should know the job is hard enough without those that have already failed at it putting their unwanted opinion in.
Not quite as stupid as Trump injecting bleach but FFS.

It did strike me as a strange comment to make, if the Chief Medical Officer agreed that it would be better to give a larger number of people a single dose instead of half as many people a double dose then we would already be doing it. Clearly they don't think that is the best way forward.Not quite as stupid as Trump injecting bleach but FFS.

Surprised he has time for this. Thought he’d be too busy advising Macron and co.

He knew that remaining in the EU was best and now he knows how best to vaccinate the country.
If anything is going to unite this country it will be TB, such is the universal desire for him to leave us in peace.

91% effective after the first dose, 95% after the second.
91% of a larger population body sounds pretty good.
Unless it has been clinically trialled as one dose you cannot know the percentage of efficacy. If it had been clinically trialled as one dose it would have been licensed for one dose and it hasn't therefore it's a daft idea from an ignoramus.91% of a larger population body sounds pretty good.

Tony has ways.
Bloody hell, I'd have Tony Blair back in a heartbeat over Boris Johnson. Quite frankly I'd rather have Theresa May, or Gordon Brown (great politician, poor PM) for that matter. At least they were all competent.
Boris is going to go down in history as one of the world's most incompetent leaders ever, and easily our worst Prime Minister to date.

Source?91% of a larger population body sounds pretty good.
"The Pfizer and BioNTech covid-19 vaccine may provide some early protection, starting 12 days after the first dose, the peer reviewed results of a phase III trial have found.
The study, published in the New England Journal of Medicine,1 found that vaccine efficacy between the first and second doses was 52% (95% credible interval 29.5% to 68.4%), with 39 cases of covid-19 in the vaccine group and 82 cases in the placebo group.
Seven or more days after the second dose, vaccine efficacy then rose to 95% (90.3% to 97.6%), with eight covid-19 cases reported in the vaccine group and 162 cases in the placebo group."

Fortunately you only have one vote.Boris is going to go down in history as one of the world's most incompetent leaders ever, and easily our worst Prime Minister to date.

I only said yesterday to my wife:
'Thank god for miniscule mercies this Xmas time, at least Bliar seems to have gone into hibernation.'
Should have known...

And he's prattling on about 'health passports' again. Somebody should give him a passport to edge of the galaxy.
Still, hope he gets the vaccine up his arse.
Might stop him talking out of it!

The argument from Prof Salisbury is the effectiveness of the first dose is underestimated. I would be surprised if this wasn’t already being investigated, given the logistical pressure on producing and delivering the vaccine.
