Quote of the day. "The shortage of trucks in the UK is down to a lack of articulated politicians"
Seem to be a few countries missing - any more above us?Latest Covid deaths per million chart
Doesn't Sajid Javid have any mates who run pubs?
According to today's Times ...
Hospitals and GPs have been told to stop non-essential blood tests amid a shortage of blood-collecting tubes. Genomics testing for unwell new-born babies, and as part of pre-natal screening or cancer diagnosis, should be prioritised over more routine tests, guidance issued by NHS England yesterday says.
Testing to ascertain vitamin D levels should be stopped "in all but very exceptional circumstances" ... routine wellness screening and allergy testing are described as "not a priority".
NHS bosses stressed that changes to testing should be made in consultation with individual patients" and added "it is important to make clear that tests that have been deferred will be carried out in the future where appropriate. As part of conversations with patients, it is important to make clear that routine tests will be deferred only where it is clinically safe to do so" [emphasis added; article then goes on and blames covid for increasing demand]

BP wants to build a factory that makes 1 million tonnes of ammonia a year using renewable energy to hydrolyse water then use the hydrogen to make ammonia for export.
BP sees potential for green hydrogen, ammonia plant in Australia
The production of green hydrogen and green ammonia is technically feasible at scale in Australia, but will require a major investment in port, electricity and water services, BP said on Wednesday, based on the findings of a study.

Yes, quite a few missing as Woosh and others have said.
But to see graphically how brilliantly we are doing ...

Peruvians probably feel most comfortable up there, living at high altitude is the norm for them.

As I reported when the restrictions were relaxed, there was quite a lot of non mask wearing among customers in week one at my Sainsbury's large superstore and all the staff were unmasked. Things has changed a lot now though.
The early sign saying customers didn't need to mask was replaced a while ago by one encouraging customers to mask if they could to continue to protect others. And on both visits this week, today's being exceptionally busy with the car park and store both quite full, I failed to see a single unmasked customer. Even all the staff members I saw were masked, clearly the management have taken the hint from we customers who have mostly continued to mask.

I had to visit bank last week. Lady I saw said more customers are now wearing masks than before lifting of restrictions. Said they were having far less arguments than when they tried to enforce requirement. Good old British attitude. Tell us to do something. No chance.. Suggest it might be better and we oblige. Think Flecc has been telling us this for nearly 2 years now.. Ahwell.. Live and learn.
In Hull today on Pearson Park, literally hundreds of people and a Chess festival
Only one mask in sight ...mine
Ah me...

But that's outdoors OG, far less risk in open air. The real importance of masks is to protect others in enclosed air spaces like shops where there's less potential for distant displacement of expelled air. The air we breath out has been warmed so is likely to rise, out of harms way outdoors.

Are any of you doing lateral flow tests a couple of times a week?
Depending where you look, some government pages seem to suggest we should all be doing so. Others limit by considering various factors.

I've never had any Covid test, all my efforts are defensive, following my lifelong rule that primary safety is infinitely better than secondary.

Well I have had 4 . Each was in advance of and linked with hospital procedures. However my view is that Tests should be discontinued, and resources devoted to vaccination. There must be competition between making vaccines and administering them and collecting the materials including vials plastics and reagents for the tests ,
