This is good news as far as picking up the pace goes. Supply in March was always going to be ramped up so no doubt now they have confirmation of imminent doses they can switch with the confidence enough is inbound.

Hmmmm 140 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 10 minutes ago, Southernman said: But no jabs recorded so far today? I hope our vaccination palaces are fit for purpose during a lockdown. Might have something to do with the fact the Chester Street hub is all in darkness - ie closed, so it appeared when I walked past at 2pm. It is really odd how they are rolling this programme out. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It is really odd how they are rolling this programme out. It is odd. But let's hope that since The MBE said that we are due more than our fair share in the next few days (I think that's what I heard him say over the weekend) then the process should be a 7 day operation rather than the 3 day one we've have had so far. I'm told that there's no shortage of volunteer trained ex GP/hospital/nursing staff so there's no reason for holding back. They just need to get on with it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXE8LdXzeHM&ab_channel=lonjil Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe the inability of anyone to get through to book is reducing number booking? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cambon 1,122 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 According to the dash board, only 5 jabs done today as at 18:15. All care home. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But don't believe all you read on social media ......too much disinformation out there. Believe the statements at the press conferences instead, their disinformation is more correct. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Two-lane 307 Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Today's trivia... When the airport "hub" was opened the gov. proudly announced that there are 10 vaccination cubicles. The attached photo shows the first 5 cubicles closest to the camera, and the others are on the far side of the width-ways partition. When I was there, the first 5 cubicles were not being used. That first area is where documentation is checked and where people sit and wait to be called into the far side. The cubicles are taking up space that should be used to gain a bit more physical separation space for the people waiting. I suppose it is par for the course for gov. design. It does make one wonder what else they have screwed up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheTeapot 11,407 Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 I only know a few people who've been for their jabs at the airport, but they've all been impressed (and surprised!) at how smooth and efficient it all went. Sometimes I think people just complain for the sake of it. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
