Don't know about over there SCO but over here the ONLY thing Bodgit's merry band of idiots got right so far, and I have to wonder how it got under their radar to be honest, was throwing not quite as much silly money (tbh, nowhere near as much silly money) at vaccine research, not done by their mates, as they did at a track and trace project that still doesn't work. It was millions instead of billions and there's likely someone with their hands out wanting to know why they weren't lead consultants.
We've still got a Hotel California app* and no financial assistance worth the name for those that have to self isolate if they even bother to get self tested anymore. If they do they can put any result they like into the system anyway. Net result was we got ourselves at the front of the queue for vaccine deliveries at 2-5x the asking price (current best guess), but we still haven't got close to full vaccination for the one's who are most at risk when we're still fannying around by age groups regardless of risk category.
By some miracle it has been shown that 12 weeks between jabs rather than 3 weeks gives better immunity this week. Amazeballs. Just as the Indjun 2nd out of 3 predominant strains from over there starts to take over from the Kent strain, both of which should be renamed as the "Bodgit didn't want to keep it out again" strain taking over from the Rishy "eat out to spread it about, especially in Kent" strain.
*Check in anywhere you like but you can't ever leave. It checks you out at midnight to save you the bother, even if you were only there for 5 minutes.
Elsewhere it's apparent Modi has really helped to spread it about the world by letting vaccines go out of date while he argued the toss about a few rupees per dose when he also did fork hall the first time round when shear luck kept the Indian numbers low. Meanwhile we keep letting flights into Heathrow from all points India.
At least the BA Staff have again made their point as they did with China. "Feck you, I'm not putting my life at risk and coming in to work on those flights." while BA and the Government don't apparently see a problem, but "the safety of their staff is their highest priority". Whatever.
Still, if you won't admit you ever fecked something up, then you won't ever have anything to learn from will you?
