Article on the use of ionisers to fight Covid 19, these things are not that expensive, from £15 upwards but apparently not good for asthmatics, worth checking,

On the news last nght was an item about the innoculations.  apparently people have been standing at the end of queues because news has circulated that there's often some vaccines left.

Also on the news was the American Hospital that had received its first vaccines and the first to be innoculated were the hospital managers !

I've just had a phone call to to ask if I would like to be innoculated (Yes please).

Mom had the pfizer vaccine today. Her gp surgery contacted her 2 days ago. The living well centre was used, just down the road from gp practice.This is bloxwich walsall and there are supposed to be 4 hubs opening. I think she had the pfizer vaccine because the Manor hospital less than 10 mins away is a storage hub for it
Rena , a birmingham labour councillor was the one who stood in the queue and there was an article i think msn that i read. They said if people just turn up without an appointment then they will sent away but other centres offer to people from odd comments i see, Also it was a birmingham group of hospitals where some executives were given left over vaccines rather than the front line staff and obviously staff were n't happy. I also seen an article about american congress people getting the vaccine in one of the offices. Yes important not to waste but the MP was daft to adverise it and jeremy vines lot obviously had n't researched enough. Think the MP had previously had a renal transplant if my memory serves me correct.

I was insensed tonight when I listened to the manager if a football club saying that all professional footballers should be vaccinated rather than having tests because so any are testing positive and games are having to be cancelled... 😤😤😳😳😱😱... I hope someone’s going to put him right and that they should be at the bottom of the list! Who do they think they are....

What the heck are they playing for anyway ... if they behaved themselves... didn’t flout the rules, jump all over one another and hug every-time they score a goal it wouldn’t happen...

Sorry.. rant over now!
