The U.K. COVID-19 vaccination schedule starts this week!

The COVID-19 virus had seriously disrupted our existence these past ten months and most probably for a long, long time to come. Although at present we are trying to reduce its spread by using masks, social distancing and improved general public hygiene, the only way to drastically reduce its spread is by vaccination,.

 

The first doses of vaccine have been delivered to hospitals here and the immunisation program is due to start tomorrow. Hopefully the vast majority of people will take up this entirely free and voluntary injection. It is the only way to reduce the occurrence of this virus amongst our population.

 

Here in the U.K., the the incidence of infection is about 1 in 110. My niece, working in pathology at a major hospital in Dallas, Texas, USA, has told us that the incidence of positive tests in her hospital is 1 in 4!

 

These figures do not need any explanation. They speak for themselves.
