Pfizer temporarily reduces vaccine deliveries to EU
Pfizer will temporarily reduce its deliveries to Europe of its Covid vaccine while it upgrades its production capacity, the company has said.
The reduction in deliveries is reportedly due to Pfizer limiting output so that it can upgrade production capacity to 2 billion vaccine doses per year from 1.3 billion currently.
“This temporary reduction will affect all European countries,” said the the Norwegian Institute of Public Health. “It is as yet not precisely clear how long time it will take before Pfizer is up to maximum production capacity again.”
Pfizer said it had to make modifications to the process and facility that will require additional regulatory approvals, Reuters reported. “Although this will temporarily impact shipments in late January to early February, it will provide a significant increase in doses available for patients in late February and March,” it said in a statement.

I assume the headline wrongly refers to EU when it should have said EU/EEA and UK? Or something like that.

I know. But geographical Europe is not 100% clearly defined. Some consider Russia, or part thereof, is in Europe; some don't.
Our lodger works in a night shelter ... high risk of CV spreading so they were due an early jab yesterday. No jab, because the promised supplies had not turned up at the jabbers. Currently rescheduled for next Friday.
I do know a few people who are busy contact tracers . In this country ,my Brother in Law and in Swansea another brother in law.Meanwhile here is a recap
I probably went to about 4 different super markets during the first lockdown and they were all like Oyster described them. I don't know if perhaps somewhere like Cardiff the situation would be similar to you flecc, but in the smaller towns and cities in Wales I think Oyster is correct with what he said.
I tend to do my shopping fairly early in the morning, so the stores are not very busy. In fact there tends to be more staff filling up the boxes for click and collect or home delivery than there is customers, but I never ever see a customer in a super market without a mask on. It might be different in little corner shops but I don't tend to go to them anyway.
Looks like the law is trying, finally, to catch up with a certain family:
A while ago, we were regaled with allegations that voting Democrat was something you'd only do if you wanted to support the billionaires.
Looks like voting Republican, or denying Biden's win, doesn't actually mean you are not supporting billionaires.
Billionaires backed Republicans who sought to reverse US election results
Guardian analysis shows Club for Growth has spent $20m supporting 42 rightwing lawmakers who voted to invalidate Biden victory

There certainly seems to be some very big differences between this vast urban/suburban area and elsewhere much further away. It's on record in this thread that I posted a number of times about the widespread non compliance here and usually got responses from outlying parts about how compliant they were. It appeared the smaller they were, the more they stuck to the rules.
But here much has reversed and individual compliance is much higher now in this latest lockdown.
But I still find it strange that national supermarket chains would permit such huge variance in their branches with almost none of what Oyster indicated during the first lockdown present here then and some still not present.
That's why I'm puzzled by those politicians complaining about worse compliance now than first time round when that is so patently untrue here. Perhaps that is linked to the long period when parliament wasn't sitting due to Covid, so they were at their constituencies rather then seeing things at first hand here.

Yes, I just heard that on the News here. We'll probably follow suit but for the present the government are dealing with air travel. A pity they didn't do more of that back in March and April.Wales has moved to tighten things:

Covid tongue:
More people are presenting with ‘Covid tongues’ and ‘strange mouth ulcers’ after coming down with coronavirus, according to the professor leading the UK’s Covid Symptom Study app.

I've had that whitish scaled tongue many times in my adult life so I wouldn't link it with Covid. More likely to be a minor internal upset, though the last time I remember it was when I had a severe allergic reaction to clarithromycin in early Autumn 2019.

I rather liked this
"The government has insisted that despite losing access to a key European database after Brexit, Britain has adequate criminal information. About 40,000 alerts relating to European criminals were deleted from the PNC after Britain’s deal with the EU. "
"Forensic systems are also linked to the PNC and hence information to do with DNA and fingerprints was also earmarked for deletion mistakenly. "
"But the Times said “crucial intelligence about suspects” had vanished because of the blunder, and that Britain’s visa system had been thrown into disarray, with the processing of applications suspended for two days. "
And now we are down another 150,000? perhaps we may as well
To top it all Earlier in the year the Police National Computer went down because (wait for it) someone unplugged it.
delete them all and start again?
As I posted earlier, perhaps someone unplugged the Police Computer?
