Correct - it doesn’t bear thinking about (for too long), what the UK numbers would be were they vaccinating at the same level as Thailand.

Don't need to think too long. Just look at last year and early this year.

I just watched this brief 2018 doco about the Spanish Flu and pandemics. They didn't know at the time of this documentary that Covid-19 was on our doorstep. In a moment of irony the segment ends with the guy saying we don't know when the next one will hit, it could be in 10 years.

Actually, the reference at the end to the possibly 10 years from now, was in relation to a flu vaccine. Never the less, a very interesting article!!

Already shown what we're capable of in that respect before the vaccine rollout. 1800 deaths a day and god knows how many infected.
I don't trust children. They're here to replace us.
