• Its only half the equation though, preventing people from dying from covid doesn't map exactly onto preventing people from dying.

    Lots of issues caused by lockdown are taking lives. Nobody in their right minds wants to be part of a discussion trying to choose the least bad outcome, but knowing that there are no good choices.

    As for the antibiotic analogy, my biggest worry is that if the vaccine looks to be working once 60% or so of people have been jabbed, there may be a drop in take up by the younger cohort.

  • Yep,
    I'll go along with those additional concerns.
    That's why I miss our conversations, of a Thursday night, at Wests.

    Again, yes, 60% is nowhere near herd immunity.
    Who knows what variants will develop in asymptomatic younger people.
