So according to a report by a health board or the like the death rate in Manchester is 25% higher because they are poorer. I call bullcrap. Imho ignorance is the cause. Living 15 to a house doesn't help and refusing the vaccine when offered because of some spurious rumours could or rather will have an impact.

This now gives them even more excuses to not have to deal with people face to face. Doctors are now about disease management which you can do without even seeing a patient this is not only a UK thing (This is what happens when you are run by Pharmaceutical industry you are a number nothing else) Originally posted by cryrst

People who are poor have awful health. Take a look at the lifestyles of this group of people pre covid-19. It has nothing to do with people who have or have not received a jab. This is about deaths not infection rates again meaningless if 15 are in one house how many of those 15 died. I had to laugh regarding you mentioning cause and effect. (yet you do not appear to understand it for the concept of wealth regarding a persons health) Edited by grumpymort (30 Jun 2021 11.36am)

Southern Asians are culturally attuned to large interacting family groups. Even if they were much richer that dynamic would still be a cultural reality. Outside of a contagious virus this cultural practice is much more effective than European style nuclear family set ups.....though it gives less individual independence.

As with most things in life there are likely realities in between. Is being poor a plus when a pandemic is around? No. Is 15 to a house a positive in the same scenario. Most certainly also no.

Sorry but the "Manchester poor" meaning they get more covid than anywhere is plain crap and lazy politics.

As some of you know I am a vaccine volunteer I received this today. ""We have been advised of a mass vaccination clinic at Crystal Palace on Saturday 3rd July. I have no further information than that at the moment, apart from the following: The event will be a celebration of football and music, with the Club televising the England Quarter Final Euros match on their large screen to people in the stands who got their tickets by coming along for vaccination. There will also be a DJ on site and some high profile music performances (securing Stormzy to ‘headline’). Appointments will be available on the NBS and we are looking to deliver 6k-10k Pfizer vaccinations to under 40s"" So if you have not had the first jab or it is now 8 weeks since you did book an appointment and get down to the Palace on Saturday get the jab and enjoy the day. I expect there will be a press release at some point so if someone could post it this was an internal email asking for vaccine volunteers.
One more point |

Stormzy. This has got a rally written all over it but its great news outside of my cynism. Well done badger you have shown all through this that it costs nothing to care.

A good idea really to get some of the vaccine shy opting in. Thanks for highlighting it and also for your volunteer work .
