We dither and delay basic decisions Stevie Wonder could see were needed.

You cant close something that isnt open

Have a link? The BBC article I just googled says this:

All of the work and findings are checked and verified independently.

The Covid vaccine trials have happened at breakneck speed, but they haven't skipped any steps.

It’s scaremongering because you posted that the U.K. skipped steps in verifying the vaccine safety.

Now you’re saying you knew weeks ago and kept your mouth shut about it?

Yeah I knew on the 2nd of December that it was approved, we all did, this was all over international news, Fachi himself said that it was rushed! Don't shoot the messenger for crying out loud

Again, please don't shoot the messenger because I am pointing out that a month ago every single newspaper in the world was like "WTF are the UK Doing approving this in just 3 weeks, can they even have read the reports in that time like!?" (paraphrasing)

Fauchi apologizing for pointing out that they approved it very very quickly: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-55177948

So it was rushed (which seeing as its incredibly important you wouldn’t want any delays due to haggling the cost) but they didn’t skip any steps.

Thanks for clarifying your initial ‘they skipped steps’ post.

They skipped the final review stage, the details of it are in the Time article, which defends them because they did a rolling review instead of a final review once all the data was ready

We have a 5km rule, yet the motorways in and out of Dublin are bumper to bumper . Dublin is the problem now, all roads in and out should have check points. Essential vehicles only, but no packed out with traffic heading all over the country

Dude I didn't mean to give you a fright I'm sorry, I guess my level of worry is already at 9 and i forget that sharing all the reasons why it's at 9 is just making stuff worse for everyone else

The vaccine is definitely safe

They approve them through their own ministry of health, the EU countries have to wait until a single EU authority approves them.

Don't have to

"the MHRA has pointed to an existing provision in E.U. law that allows member states’ regulators to issue temporary approval of products for use in their own countries during public health emergencies"

I don't think we could have done it much faster by ourselves

I hope we are near the peak.

This faffing around with half-arssed lockdowns with regard to schools, construction and "essential" cappuccinos is not the answer.

I wouldn't think so unfortunately (near the peak) if it's going the way it is I'd say a few weeks time would be this waves peak, if everyone sticks to the guidelines.

It's getting to be a serious pain in the b*llx and I feel guilty saying that, cause I ain't a frontline worker.

Prayers to them on the frontline and to those suffering from C19.

Vaccines can't come fckn quick enough now.

I don't necessarily disagree but there is a Facebook page for the area I live in and every second day people are whinging about checkpoints. The Gardai are damned if they do and damned if they don't.

Tony saying we should assume we have Covid if we have any symptoms surely means that absence from work will be through the roof for the next few weeks.
