We need to get small children vaccinated PDQ age 3-11
The UK is ahead of the USA in vaccination, but is also ahead of the USA in spread of the Delta variant. While the USA has only 6% Delta Variant, the UK is over 90%. So Boris Johnson has done the reasonable thing, and delayed reopening the country by four weeks.
Does that mean that Johnson is a Democratic Governor or some other crazy rant by the alt right?
The Delta Variant is more infectious, and more likely to get around weak immunity of previous infections or single vaccinations. Getting the full vaccination seems to hold up against it relatively well.
The Delta Variant also appears to raise the number of hospitalizations, especially among children, but that is just preliminary data.
First, even at 90%, the UK has vaccinated significantly fewer actual people than the US, and we’ve done it much faster than they have.
Second, even the jackass governors here are ending restrictions because of declining cases and deaths. And we’ve heard a shitload of conflicting reports on the efficacy of everything from masks to lockdowns and even vaccines. Is he doing the right thing? Who the hell knows?

The UK got a faster start, and is still ahead of the USA. We are catching up, especially with the competent leadership of Biden. I doubt either country will ever be able to hit 90%, so I do not know where that came from.
I thought you wanted restrictions ended. Those "jackass governors" are ending restrictions while Prime Minister Johnson is extending restrictions in the UK.

Gee, I don't know how to explain this to you in leftardese. You guys don't even have a word for "mathematics", do you? *sigh* They're "ahead" on a percentage basis, not on a basis of how many actual people have been vaccinated. To put it in smaller numbers, if you have to vaccinate 10 people, you can jab 90% of them a hell of a lot faster than if you have to jab 90% of 10,000 people. And if you can only jab 50% of the 10k people in roughly the same time frame as the guy who had to do 10, you've still vaccinated 5,000 people!Hope that helps.The UK got a faster start, and is still ahead of the USA.
We're "catching up"? How morbidly tacky of you to turn this into a competition. At least put the contestants in the same weight class. And tell me ONE thing biden has done to make this nightmare better.We are catching up, especially with the competent leadership of Biden.
Both countries have the logistics and technology to hit 100%, then it's all human nature and reality.I doubt either country will ever be able to hit 90%, so I do not know where that came from.
Yeah I did, and it's happening finally.I thought you wanted restrictions ended.
Yeah, I know. And I don't care what Johnson is doing either.Those "jackass governors" are ending restrictions while Prime Minister Johnson is extending restrictions in the UK
