The Government gave a timetable based on adjusted figures. They said they adjusted them. I want to know on what basis they adjusted the figures based on the fact that the company have said there will not be a drop in Q2 deliveries. Did they do it on the back of a unsubstantiated news report? Is that really what we are basing our communication policy on?
I am not looking for certainty. I am looking for a clear concise message.
There's another story about infections falling off a cliff and Prof Henry? I think I heard saying it can only be attributable to vaccines didn't hear details.While it feels the rollout here is interminably slow, according to HSE on course for 100,000 vaccinations this week.
Last week it was 80,000.
Over 340,000 vaccine doses have been administered in Ireland so far, with 126,000 people fully vaccinated as of Friday. These are within the first two cohorts of frontline healthcare workers and residents in long-term care over the age of 65.
The latest figures mean that roughly around 2.5% of people in Ireland have been fully vaccinated against Covid-19.
100,000 vaccines set to be administered this week as government expects big supply increase from April
The health minister has said capacity is being built up to vaccinate 250,000 people a week.www.thejournal.ie
Speaking at a briefing this afternoon, the HSE’s Chief Clinical Officer Dr. Colm Henry said there has been a “very severe drop” in infection rates and that it’s “very difficult” to attributed that to the drop in community transmission alone.There's another story about infections falling off a cliff and Prof Henry?

Well Pfizer didn't participate in that program, Moderna did and I'm unsure about J&J.Wikipedia article how the US has accelerated the vaccination development and deployment
The EU was much more hesitating....
Most in the industry now think that it was a waste of Federal money and achieved nothing extra as the vaccines were developed by companies in-house capabilities.
Well Pfizer didn't participate in that program, Moderna did and I'm unsure about J&J.
At the same time, on July 22, Pfizer agreed to a $1.95 billion deal with the Trump administration “for large-scale production and nationwide delivery of 100 million doses of a COVID-19 vaccine in the United States following the vaccine’s successful manufacture and approval.”
Technically, that agreement has nothing to do with the development of the vaccine. But it also appears to undermine the claim that Pfizer is operating entirely outside Operation Warp Speed.
A senior administration official told Yahoo News that since “the early days of March when President Trump convened pharmaceutical companies at the White House, Pfizer has been a part of the incredible public-private partnership forged to combat the coronavirus pandemic. Additionally, the nearly 2 billion dollars awarded to Pfizer will go a long way in the manufacturing and distribution of the Pfizer vaccine in development.”
They didn't and the second quote was Pfizer selling vaccines in the same way Moderna, AZ did. Using that argument would mean AZ took more money from the EU than the UK did.So is Pfizer part of Operation Warp Speed or not? Yes and no.
Pfizer’s assertion that it is not part of Operation Warp Speed, the Trump administration’s vaccine program, is setting off a heated political debate.ca.news.yahoo.com
Oh yes it is , to the point that the links you posted clearly states that Pfizer did not take Federal money for the development or manufacturing of the vaccine.It isn't that black and white as you claim Paul but nevermind
"Kurz said that he and Frederiksen will cooperate with Netanyahu on the "research and production of vaccines and drugs," saying that the first priority is to accelerate the production and procurement of vaccines."
Good move of Denmark and Austria
Corona in Europe - Why are Israel, UK and US vaccinating so ridiculously fast?
The countries that will be able to be freed from the lockdown the quickest because they have administered enough corona vaccines to achieve herd immunity do not appear to be in the European Union.innovationorigins.com
Are Israel researching and producing vaccines?, thought they were exclusively using Pfizer/BioNTech in a deal that was done whereby Israel would get more vaccines at a higher price than anyone else and provide detailed data on effectiveness and other vital benefits of the vaccine in a real world scenario.It isn't that black and white as you claim Paul but nevermind

No the return will be stellar as the US and Israel will be able to reopen the economies much more earlier than Europe. The billions poured by Israel, the UK and the US into Vaccinations will be a pittance then.For some reason the other link won't copy.
No matter,
So, for the all the money invested by Trump ( should be noted Ivanka thinks $18bn was invested) outlined in the above link, there is on one vaccine is presently in use in the US ....Moderna's.
J&Js $500m is a pittance to the world's biggest pharmaceutical company ($350bn market cap approximately) probably made no difference to what it has spent in getting its vaccine produced.
After all those billions the return isn't exactly stellar, actually its abysmal and hasn't made a jot of difference to the US, Europe, Israel or any other country.
Did the HSE's Excel file crash?(...)
The groups say they have been told the delay is due to problems with the online vaccination registration portal but the HSE says there are no issues with the system.
The Irish Dental Association says an estimated 85% of its members in private practice have not yet received an appointment to be vaccinated.
Caroline Robbins, who is on the IDA's GP Committee, said the association has been inundated with calls from members who have had no communications from the HSE despite registering for vaccines a number of weeks ago.

Again you seem to have an inability to back up your previous posts even though what you asserted was incorrect.No the return will be stellar as the US and Israel will be able to reopen the economies much more earlier than Europe. The billions poured by Israel, the UK and the US into Vaccinations will be a pittance then.
