fuzzyduck79 Jan 2021 8:40pm, 31 Jan 2021 71 posts	0 fuzzyduck79 I heard an article on the news this morning saying Chris Whitty was pushing for 6 weeks between jabs, but I can’t see anything suggesting this has been adopted. That would pull lots of jabs forward and impact the queue for first doses, might explain why the calculator has pushed some dates back?
Bazoaxe Jan 2021 8:40pm, 31 Jan 2021 18,803 posts	0 Bazoaxe Mrs Axe and I had a walk this afternoon part of which was on the canal path but to be honest we regretted that as it was absolutely jampacked with people. Many of whom in big groups and very few who seemed to want to give any space. We were quite relieved when we got off the canal path and could pick our way around quieter streets.

To be honest, I haven't even looked at the predictor, I'm so far down the list that I don't expect to get it before summer. I'm glad we're currently on track though. I'll be following the positive covid twitter feed with interest, OH has struggled with lockdown, so it will be good to be able to say some good things occasionally.
