Caging students appears to be working (https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/furious-students-tear-down-new-19231246) Graphs from week 47 surveillance report. Week 44 was half term in many parts of England, isn’t it concerning that cases in primary and secondary school student continue to increase? Will the gov decide to push remote learning and shut schools to save Christmas?

62% effective when people received 2 full doses, but 90% effective for those that received half a dose followed by a full dose.

Also "There were no hospitalised or severe cases in anyone who received the vaccine" ( ox.ac.uk).

AZN vaccine believed to prevent infection not just disease which has yet to be suggested for the others
AZN may not gain any profit from the vaccine but given its cost, ease of delivery etc is likely to be the one used most widely global - being the company that saved the world may have some knock on financial impact if spun well.

The Oxford vaccine, at a price of around £3, also costs far less than Pfizer's (around £15) or Moderna's (£25) vaccines. Cheaper than a pint. Making the first dose cheaper than half a pint.
"Barman, I'll have a pint and a half of your finest please".

Unless your in Wetherspoons when the pint & half may well be cheaper but finest probably won't come into it

What will happen to those who refuse a vaccine? They'll all be holed up in Wetherspoons bemoaning the state of the world. Why would anybody sane refuse a vaccine?

What will happen to those who refuse a vaccine? They take their chances and hope enough people do get the vaccine so that there is very little virus left floating around for them to catch.
