The vaccines aren't stopping transmission so how will herd immunity be achievable ? especially as they're letting in fully vaccinated people from other countries without testing

Alberta/Canada is no where near herd immunity I don't think.
I should also add, we do not even have rapid testing here so even if I wanted to test myself, come Aug 16, I can't. Also the provincial party in Alberta has been wanting to privatise healthcare (they can do that) since they won and they are slowly destroying the healthcare system so they can. It is disgusting. We had an amazing system a few years back and it is being gutted by them.
Australia calling in the military
Actually we only need 98% of people to be vaccinated (or have antibodies, resistance, T cells, etc), should be easy enough...
Well here in Alberta we only have 64% fully vaccinated and not sure how many have antibodies from the virus. Our second doses have slowed down as we reopened and removed all restrictions so some people see no point getting the second dose since everything is open
Until the next VOC arrives
Will you be introducing vaccine passports like the UK?Well here in Alberta we only have 64% fully vaccinated and not sure how many have antibodies from the virus. Our second doses have slowed down as we reopened and removed all restrictions so some people see no point getting the second dose since everything is open
No.Other provinces are. But our right wing provincial government has said no.
There may be a federal one introduced for international travel. The provincial government has decided covid no longer exists, hence no more testing and positive not having to quarantine. Even though the delta variant is starting to get crazy here.
We've seen deaths rise. Now they have stagnated. Then they will fall.
Looking at the data today, the number of people in hospital has fallen by 1. Bear in mind that hopsital admission data is usually lagging by 4 days whereas actual numbers in hospital is 8am the day before so a little more representative of the current situation. It's not much and it is only 1 day and 1 person but it's the 1st time in 6 weeks that there have been less people in hospital than the day before.
Not up to date with this thread so this might have already been said. But those pregnant/IVF/BF CAN get the jab....
Sorry still catching up with this thread so apologies if this has been clarified later on - just to point out that this isn't accurate. I'm in a vaccine trial and because I'm an NHS worker was unblinded so that I could consider getting the Pfizer/AZ vaccine if I'd had the placebo already (I had the active vaccine). However others who have had the placebo have been told they would need to have an active vaccine
NHS App is updated for 'domestic' Covid passports
Those opening up the Covid section of the NHS App can now go through to the 'get your NHS Covid Pass' - which presents two options of 'domestic' or 'travel'.
I have had mine a couple of weeks. There were two vaccine passport sections. One was for trial events like Wimbledon, Euros etc and the other was for travel such as abroad. When we went back to 'normal' the other week the trials one switched to 'domestic' alongside the travel one that's not changed.
AstraZeneca vaccine 'has same risk of blood clots as Pfizer's'
Pfizer's coronavirus vaccine is just as likely to trigger blood clots as AstraZeneca's, according to a study in Spain that has prompted fury among UK Government officials.
The EU have been disgusting the whole time. Lives are at stake and they have used the opportunity to pour scorn on the UK vaccine for our cheek to leave the EU instead of keeping shut they decided to slow the roll out by putting doubt in the heads of people about the safety of the product.
Florida’s in a bad way
Hardly anyone vaccinated and majority of people there are old to enjoy retirement. Still hope that senile president they have gets it sorted so Brits can go there though.......
