Sounds like the Indian variant may throw a spanner in the works for the UK reopening in June. I hate these poxy variants. I hope it doesn't make its way over here.

I'm pretty certain it is in BC already, especially in the Surrey area and in Abbotsford.

Re: Coronavirus
Seems it has been found everywhere except Antartica, quite why it was not locked down is a mystery, OK probably would only have slowed the spread.

Re: Covid Vaccine
Ontario…Lockdown was extended today until at least June 14. Some further restrictions will be lifted after a further 3 weeks (July), and finally the rest after a further 3 weeks (August). Of course that depends if the number of cases keep falling and the amount of vaccinations rise.

Re: Coronavirus
The 2nd dose of AZ vaccine is now being offered 10 weeks after the 1st dose. Maximum efficiency is 12 weeks after the 1st dose. We are 9 weeks on Monday. Wondering whether to wait until the 12 week mark, assuming there is AZ vaccine left, or go for the 10. Results are expected early June as to the efficiency of mix and match vaccines.

I remember we talked about the 12 week optimum aspect but I don't think there's that much difference between 8 or 9 and 12, albeit that's based on NB infection levels rather than Toronto. For MIL I reckon that will be fine and perhaps even sooner if this CBC report is anything to go by. A growing "cluster" of COVID-19 cases at the Delta Fredericton is fuelled by the variant first reported in India and health officials believe there's a "very strong probability" it's spreading through surface contacts rather than respiratory droplets or aerosols, according to an internal Horizon Health Network memo. |

In NB the remaining 3500 doses expire at the end of May. I calculate that to be 9 weeks for MIL.

Difficult to believe some media stuff though. https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/150333...entists-probe/ |
