@gavinshelley @Rioutm @jet2tweets Amazing, thanks!

@hcathro @Rioutm @jet2tweets Jet 2 rep has confirmed it at the airport and check in from 14:05

IMPORTANT NOTICE 28TH AUGUST 2023

@Rioutm @gavinshelley @jet2tweets We’re at a hotel so think we’re going to wait here rather than head to the airport yet, hopefully we’ll hear something official soon

@Rioutm @gavinshelley @jet2tweets I’ve found the same on flight radar and the jet2 website so hopefully this is true!

@Rioutm @gavinshelley @jet2tweets No response from customer services after half an hour so I gave up! Might try again after breakfast…

@hcathro @gavinshelley @jet2tweets Thanks

@Rioutm @gavinshelley @jet2tweets We’re in the same boat, currently on hold to customer services but don’t hold out much hope of an answer! Will update if I get through

@gavinshelley @jet2tweets I’m also on this flight have you any information on it. Getting nowhere with trying to contact jet2

@jet2tweets LS832 Palma to Manchester - when will our rescheduled flight be? Stuck in Majorca with 2 small children and absolutely zero communication from Jet2 to let us know what to expect

@RoyalMailHelp I haven't received any post at all for 2 weeks now - what can I do to find out what is happening to my mail? I've emailed a complaint but just got a generic response, and there is a 40 min wait on the helpline...

@Flemingo_99 @Peradventur3 @DPJHodges So lockdown everyone forever just in case??

Unless I'm missing something ,the problem in Bolton and other areas is people not getting vaccinated who have been given the option to be vaccinated. And if that is the issue, I'm not sure what there Government is supposed to do about it.

@djmeph @MamaMoose_Be @timspector We’ve been ‘easing back into it’ for months, the UK has been one of the slowest in unlocking this time around. 5 weeks between each step is hardly rushing!

Plenty of scary models around that I’m treating with a pinch of salt-, ALL the data shows vaccines are working and I don’t buy into an Indian Third wave scenario that some of the media seem to be whipping up

@Blen050Paul @GMB You’ve got to love a bit of racist poetry on a Friday afternoon!

@GMB COVID spreads in a vibrant land But selfish travellers weddings planned Now they rush get back HOME ! Backed by MP’s reckless prone We’re all shielding to what effect They’re narcissistic let’s not pretend During Eid they reckless gather Now it strikes do they bother🤷🏼‍♂️

As the government says it can't rule out local lockdowns, should restrictions remain in place for the areas where cases of the Indian Covid variant are rising?

@ebeth_0990 @JamesMelville My heart goes out to you, I can’t imagine how tough it must have been for people giving birth during that first lockdown! It’s hard enough with the usual support networks in place.

When two friends committed suicide because their businesses went under during quarantine. My heart bleeds for Gwyneth though. 🙄

@pete_v @pmholling @andygmckay @Atrios @PaulMainwood Same here, booked in this week for Pfizer jab and I’m under 40 (just 😬) Large numbers of friends of same age all booked in/already had the jab, all guaranteed to have Pfizer

@pmholling @andygmckay @Atrios @PaulMainwood Similar here - 39 and I had a text from my GP earlier today inviting me to book in for a first Pfizer jab 🥳. Wasn’t expecting it with the central NHS site still saying over-40s only.

The UK is doing something hard to understand, and harder to justify. We are both importing and producing unfeasibly huge vaccine supplies and ... sitting on them. The stockpile is currently a little under 12m doses; ~5m of them are mRNA. Can we *please* get them into arms now?

@Johnnie77628091 @emmakennytv My five year old had this done last week at school!

@emmakennytv Exactly how hearing tests are still done!

Another 80’s memory at school!!! Hearing tests!!! Like they came in and you went in a room and they made you say when you could hear certain beeps and tones! X

@GAZELLIO @ThatRyanChap The graphs are by school year, not age - the first graph covers age 2-10/11, the second graph covers age 11-16

@ThatRyanChap What about the 12-18 age group?

my take on why we need to be very careful when interpreting stories about the AZ vaccine and blood clots theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

@TracyGreaves24 @Beer4John @PaulKetchley @JonSykesNbr1 @slowoldgoat @Smyth_Chris @SophyRidgeSky @WHO Same here in South Cheshire - vaccinating over 65s for the last week or so🙂

Significant move from @WHO - they are following Britain in recommending the Oxford AZ vaccine be given 8-12 weeks apart, saying a longer gap "associated with greater vaccine efficacy" and will reach more people. And recommend for over 65s too who.int/publications/i…

@quiscustodis @ChrisGr29264921 @andrew_lilico Where are you getting this from? And why would this be the case? google.co.uk/amp/s/www.bbc.…

@ChrisGr29264921 @andrew_lilico No. This time more younger people are occupying ICU beds. ICU aren't able to take every patient who needs an ICU bed, so elderly patients are triaged out.

@h_dub @rehabrich @obi1_2 @MichaelYeadon3 I guess they didn’t test it on people who’ve had covid as they are already (at least partially) immune - there is some concern that giving the vax to people who’ve had covid could actually cause a large immune overreaction but I haven’t read up on it

@hcathro @rehabrich @obi1_2 @MichaelYeadon3 The more I read this, the more questions...will this be given to people who've had covid?? It hadn't been tested on suspected/known previous sufferers.
