Most of the World is now freely reporting that there will be vaccine shortages for quite a few months. | |||

"It's not as much to do with training people as it is efficacy to the risk of clinical self-care afterwards. If people self-administer the are outside of clinical oversight." Why do they need such self care afterwards if the vaccines are safe? | |||

"It requires the full logistics, including resources with staff, at high volume to achieve this. The 1st vaccine isn't as easy to store and transport as others, so makes it tougher. The Oxford jab opens this up more easily as a potential strategy? But still needs the huge volume of staff to inject people. We're probably not close to having them just yet but we should target closer to 24/7 coverage, where physical treatment space is limited. The key issue for the 1st target group, the over 80s, is that getting them mobile in the middle of the night, with snow, ice etc around, isn't as safe or recommended as daytime. Once we move to younger, fitter people, it becomes easier and more appropriate to do. If we have the space to do it during reasonable hours, it would still be better than middle of the night. Many have no private transport and buses etc don't run typically in the middle of the night etc. " Surely these most vulnerable people should be vaccinated at home or a mass programme in the care homes? The vaccine is safe apparently so this should be feasible? | |||

Nothing to do with the vaccine being safe it's to do with those people who may have an adverse reaction. | |||

" There are tens of thousands of military personnel who are competent to deliver this." Current situation as mentioned is availability of the vaccine at point of use being an issue. This will improve with the availability of AZ vaccine. But the idea we have tens of thousands of military personnel available is sadly laughable. 14,000 have been made available. Many of whom might be good with a bayonet but would you want them stabbing your arm? All the rest are busy deployed, injured or getting ready for deployment and maintaining security, keeping an aircraft carrier from crashing etc. Our military force is tiny. Sri lanka have a bigger army for example. If you scrap everyone together in our military there is less than 150,000. Sounds like a lot but it isnt when you consider they are working all over the world. The military medical professionals best positioned to vaccinate are already deployed or working in the NHS so there arent more people just available to throw at the problem. I think the WI needs to be mobilised. | |||

Have you checked your sources, checked why before making the assumptions or implications you may want from stating such a thing? Otherwise it feeds the conspiracies with more false information. We have two like that here in NI. The reason is they have been set apart as covid centres if they need to move all covid patients, all great when they thought it out but all the staff were relocated to help other hospitals. Bit of a chicken an egg situation made even worse with the numbers of staff off sick or isolating. | |||

"As Cat said there is not enough vaccine to do 24/7 Secured so far USA 600 million doses EU 300 million doses JAPAN 120 million doses UK 40 million doses The figures are correct (at present!) However what is inexcusable is the amount of vaccine that is currently being disposed of due to nothing more than poor logistics and lack of foresight. Some people simply need to pull their fingers out and do the job expected of them. It is one of those situations where you are only limited by your imagination! WHO are trying to get it produced elsewhere for poorer countries " | |||

"Can I just add DRY ICE again. Is in shortage too, not just the ingredients that make up the vaccine itself. Or the logistical problems of a vaccine that needs to be colder than -70 degrees. So it's storage fridges too that you don't just throw around as if it was a cheap tiny home fridge - then there is the oversight of installation into premises local to the vaccination outlets and on and on it goes . . . I really don't know why anyone is surprised at this. The whole World after all is trying to get the whole world vaccinated at the same time. Any breakdown in any part of the chain is going to fook the other parts. Like the vaccine itself - we need to chill for a while - we have come this far already. I think that there is a far shorter distance now to travel than the one we have already been on. " People just seem to think that vaccines will miraculously appear in their billions.

"So there maybe a simple answer to this but in this Pandemic with most peoples jobs at risk mental health issues people dying etc why are we not implementing: 24 hours 7 days a week testing 24 hour 7 days a week vaccinating Anyone help me with this? " Yes. Even if 24/7 working were an option, even in shifts, there are lots of things that can go wrong and slow things up. However, the main reason it's not happening is that you live in a country that, since 1979, has bee entirely run on the principle of "Fuck everyone else, as long as I'm ok, I don't give a shit." People may think that's harsh; but I'd remind you of the panic buying and all the careless fuckwits calling for hundreds of thousands to be sacrificed, to let herd immunity take place, just so their lives wouldn't be inconvenienced in any way. It is, of course, a coincidence that the breeding ground of the more virulent, mutated version of Covid 19 was the Tory heartland of SE England. Coincidence; but, ironically, fitting - given the "Me! Me! Me!" attitude they've spent over 40 years enabling; whilst simultaneously destroying communities - especially the ones that don't buy into their bullshit. The fact that this country cannot - particularly under its current, dangerously incompetent, leadership - unite in the face of a common threat, after decades of diminishing the role of the state in the overall welfare of the country, really is no surprise. | |||

"Covid patients are unlikely to be in accident and emergency. Only been in to a and e once during lockdown, to an elderly relative in. It was surprisingly busy considering no pubs were open." Correct, covid or suspected covid complications come to us as immediate admissions, not via the ED. They are swabbed if not confirmed and then moved to wards once we know where to place them. | |||

Testing on a grand scale wasn't and never will be necessary and we certainly don't need 24/7 testing!

"Can I just add DRY ICE again. Is in shortage too, not just the ingredients that make up the vaccine itself. Or the logistical problems of a vaccine that needs to be colder than -70 degrees. So it's storage fridges too that you don't just throw around as if it was a cheap tiny home fridge - then there is the oversight of installation into premises local to the vaccination outlets and on and on it goes . . . I really don't know why anyone is surprised at this. The whole World after all is trying to get the whole world vaccinated at the same time. Any breakdown in any part of the chain is going to fook the other parts. Like the vaccine itself - we need to chill for a while - we have come this far already. I think that there is a far shorter distance now to travel than the one we have already been on. People just seem to think that vaccines will miraculously appear in their billions. No thought for the glass vials, machines, ingredients, in process testing, distribution, storage, etc etc. " This | |||

"It requires the full logistics, including resources with staff, at high volume to achieve this. The 1st vaccine isn't as easy to store and transport as others, so makes it tougher. The Oxford jab opens this up more easily as a potential strategy? But still needs the huge volume of staff to inject people. We're probably not close to having them just yet but we should target closer to 24/7 coverage, where physical treatment space is limited. The key issue for the 1st target group, the over 80s, is that getting them mobile in the middle of the night, with snow, ice etc around, isn't as safe or recommended as daytime. Once we move to younger, fitter people, it becomes easier and more appropriate to do. If we have the space to do it during reasonable hours, it would still be better than middle of the night. Many have no private transport and buses etc don't run typically in the middle of the night etc. To me this is a national emergency this is our generations World War we can make all the excuses for this not to happen, apparently 500000 or more people offered there services in the first lockdown, I would happily volunteer to take people to be vaccinated at whatever time of day, to many excuses " Well according to the media it looks like I was correct in suggesting we go 24/7!!

"So there maybe a simple answer to this but in this Pandemic with most peoples jobs at risk mental health issues people dying etc why are we not implementing: 24 hours 7 days a week testing 24 hour 7 days a week vaccinating Anyone help me with this? Where are the trained people who can do this going to come from? how much training does someone need to inject this Vaccine? Not alot i wiuld of thought!!! I'm guessing it's more to do with,if something goes wrong My friend is a paramedic and 2 hrs training and that's it to be able to do and injection it's a very simple procedure but lack of staff You only have to look at nightingale hospital it's empty due to lack of staff which Seams very strange to have a massive hospital empty with no patients or staff It’s not about doing the injection. We have loads of staff that can give an injection (including HCA’s , dentists and paramedics) They have to be qualified to draw the vaccine. Anybody could do that but no one knows how much vaccine their is to go around the whole of the uk that will take a long time before everyone has the vaccine it's just a waiting game I find it really disrespectful to just be like “anyone could do that” when in reality, not “anyone” could be a fully qualified nurse If anyone could do it surely the NHS staffing crisis wouldn’t be a crisis " You don't have to be a qualified nurse or doctor to do an injection just 2 hrs training I work for nhs and have no training but I could do a 2 hr course and be qualified to give vaccine injection it's not rocket science | |||

"It's not as much to do with training people as it is efficacy to the risk of clinical self-care afterwards. If people self-administer the are outside of clinical oversight. Why do they need such self care afterwards if the vaccines are safe? Can you tell me please as you seem to know so much how do you treat a person who has a anaphylactic reaction to the vaccine?. That’s my point exactly. The vaccine shouldn’t be sold as safe to people when we actually don’t know, and people are dying after having it. Figures how many people in the uk have died following vaccination? It doesn’t matter if it’s UK or any country, nobody should die after receiving a ‘safe’ vaccine surely? Who has died? Who has died after receiving the vaccine? Which country? How many people have died?" Do you really think I need to respond from you? The answer is no, so stop with the question firing | |||

Nope So are you suggesting there aren’t medically trained people out there who could administer a jab!! To me if your medically trained anyway it wouldn’t take long to train you up to give a jab! It’s about going the extra mile to give people back there lives and income, as there are many of us who can’t work and don’t get 80% of their wages " I didn't say that. You assumed that. There are a lot of trained staff but most aren't. If you're happy at a tank driver giving you an injection, go ahead. I want competent vaccinators | |||

" We must have loads of good quality Drs and Nurses in the armed forces and loads that have retired who could help with this, " The Armed Forces no longer run dedicated Military hospitals, the last closing or turned over to the local NHS trust in 1995, (although the hospital at RAF Akrotiri, Cyprus, stayed open until 2013). They have been replaced by Medical Defence Hospital Units (aka wards). There are 7 of these. Closing, transferring and selling off the military hospitals provided the bonus of being able to lose vast numbers of the medical workforce. After all, the Cold War was over, and it's not a if we will need all of those expensive doctors, nurses, theatre technicians, pharmacists, microbiologists is it? Even before the closures and the job loses the medical services were not recruited to the service line numbers required; the exception was RAF as they were able to say that full staffing was required for active airfields and the Navy for submarines. The Defence Medical Services now have approx 8000 staff (with around 4000 on Territorial Army strength). Most of them, whatever their job doctor, nurse, combat medical technician etc. will be working in the NHS in their day to day activities (and that includes those in the TA). A small core of command personnel remain to administer the so-called Field Hospitals that would be required in times of conflict but note that these hospitals would be staffed by military personnel pulled out of the NHS services they are working in. Trust me; the medical staff warned their commanders and the governments at the time(s) of the potential consequences of these cuts (See 'Options for Change') but ears become deaf to arguments when there's a potential promotion, or a CBE / Knighthood) to be had by going along with decimating the service. Having neutered the Army Medical Services in the late 1980s, attention has switched to the RAF and Navy. | |||

That’s my point exactly. The vaccine shouldn’t be sold as safe to people when we actually don’t know, and people are dying after having it. Figures how many people in the uk have died following vaccination? ...we think you are making this up Me? So what. Couldn’t give a monkeys what you think " Fine by us. It would be helpful if you used facts rather than make things up | |||

Figures how many people in the uk have died following vaccination? It doesn’t matter if it’s UK or any country, nobody should die after receiving a ‘safe’ vaccine surely? Who has died? Who has died after receiving the vaccine? Which country? How many people have died? Do you really think I need to respond from you? The answer is no, so stop with the question firing So you lied. No. Maybe not, but your conjecture is ridiculous and dangerous. The information is out there, is not for me to post links or do peoples research for them I hope the jab is safe for majority of people and I hope it helps to stop the spread, it should, however, be safe for all " No, the information isn't out there and to suggest it is and people are being mislead and misinformed is dangerous. | |||

"Here is a slightly different thought process, why don't they train the people doing the tests to administer the vaccine? If you go for a test, and fit the criteria of the at risk groups you can be vaccinated on the spot regardless of the test result? " the test centre i went to they just handed you a test kit you swabbed yourself and it was just a few folk walking about to answer questions rather than actual clinically trained staff | |||

"just thinking see on these threads about vaccines and testing and manning the nightingale hospitals etc ... despite probably none of us having a perfect solution even with a snag further down the line people have had loads of good suggestions its like when you do a white board session at work and 90% of what goes on the whiteboard gets discarded as oversimplistic solution once you get into the detail but at least it got you thinking outside the box and usually eventually a combination of peoples thoughts results in something brilliant ... wonder if the govt / nhs management have even completed a similar exercise or just stayed exactly in the box of this is how its always done so we repeat " In fairness we probably do a better job on here than they do in Whitehall | |||

"So there maybe a simple answer to this but in this Pandemic with most peoples jobs at risk mental health issues people dying etc why are we not implementing: 24 hours 7 days a week testing 24 hour 7 days a week vaccinating Anyone help me with this? Where are the trained people who can do this going to come from? how much training does someone need to inject this Vaccine? Not alot i wiuld of thought!!! I'm guessing it's more to do with,if something goes wrong My friend is a paramedic and 2 hrs training and that's it to be able to do and injection it's a very simple procedure but lack of staff You only have to look at nightingale hospital it's empty due to lack of staff which Seams very strange to have a massive hospital empty with no patients or staff Your friend is already a qualified paramedic. That makes a difference. So suggesting taking them off the front line to administer the jab? Who does their job? It does but he is not qualified to do injections just because he is a paramedic that wasn't the debate anyone could do this One example is a private dentist they are not fully qualified dentists but they still can do work on patients just like a fully qualified dentist that has had many years training " Well. Matt, you've totally destroyed your credibility with that rash statement. I think your best recourse is to gently apologise for misleading readers about the dentist. I've just spoken to my private dentist, who is a professor and she said, total rubbish. Lots of private dentists have worked and still do NHS work. If anything, they're more qualified than NHS dentists. | |||

Why are these people who have, volunteered to be vaccinaters(and some of these are ex NHS workers) being asked to sit through 18+online courses. Too much red tape in this country. " I’m a ex nhs worker who has applied via nhs professionals and as yet haven’t had a response to my application. I told them I would be more than happy to work on my days and off from my current job. | |||

"What happened too all those thousands of retired medical professionals who were going to come out of retirement to help with this pandemic? Serious question? I remember reading about it all but don’t think it came off? " Some came back where I work but they're working in the hospital, not the testing or vaccination centres. | |||

Where are the trained people who can do this going to come from? I have seen a video of a Gloucester Hospital that looked like a ghost town, A&E departments are quiet, routine operations all cancelled, surely these Drs and Nurses could be quickly trained to administer a jab!!" The hospital my mum works at, the day surgery staff have gone to work in the additional ITU they've created in the department I used to work in. | |||

"Apparently it’s not feasible due to not enough staff being able to implement on these timescales. I agree with you, it ought to be possible if this virus is as deadly as we are told! I made this point in another thread. If the Government use the resources available to them it is more than feasible. There are tens of thousands of military personnel who are competent to deliver this, plus retired medical professionals. If there was an appetite to deliver this, it would be done..... I just can't work out why it hasn't been instigated already Competent enough to administer an injection.. Nope So are you suggesting there aren’t medically trained people out there who could administer a jab!! To me if your medically trained anyway it wouldn’t take long to train you up to give a jab! It’s about going the extra mile to give people back there lives and income, as there are many of us who can’t work and don’t get 80% of their wages You are dead right! It just seems to be excuses after excuses now, it’s kinda embarrassing They have to be competent. Not guys running around playing soldiers " I find that pretty insulting to the military to be honest. One of the top cardiologists in the uk is military I don’t see him running around with playing soldiers. The drs who work at DNRC dont run around playing soldiers either. You suggesting they are not competent is an insult to some very intelligent men and women who have no doubt achieved more in their lives than you or I. | |||

"People could also self administer surely? That would speed things up? " Because of potential complications of it being administered incorrectly like SIRVA (shoulder injury related to vaccine administration). There's a reason you need to be trained. | |||
