I'm sure maidit308 can supply us with all the evidence to qualify why he thinks it's only 45% effective. I'll look forward to it. Perhaps, then he could cast his eyes over my mates MRI brain scan. I'm sure the surgeon would like to know his verdict.

97% of new covid cases in the US are in the unvaccinated.

The vaccines are working.

Well, I'm an atheist so for me that couldn't be more true. My belief is we have one shot at this and then we are worm food.

If you look at the problem from a purely economic perspective. It makes sense. I don't agree with the approach but people (voters) want their freedom and they have been told what that freedom will cost but I'm not sure that they understand the cost. Like I said. SAR need to keep plugging away at this for when the inevitable happens.

Whitty also said, we just present the science and data. The ministers make the deciosns. He's on record basically say. Not me, it's them.

Whitty intimated what living with the virus means last week. He said something like we are keeping alive people who will probably be dead in two years. Not exactly like this but that was the gist. Living with it means throwing the vulnerable under a bus. A recent poll says 52% of the population are ok with this approach. Same split as Brexit, weirdly. SAR need to keep plugging away at this regardless because if the experiment goes awry, the **** will hit the fan in about 3 weeks time.

I don't think Boris will mention therapeutics other than in passing. Today's briefing will be a warning that we need to slow the transmission down. Mask wearing indoors will be advised as will caution when mixing with others. Hospitalisation and deaths aren't rising at the same rate so there is still that 2 week lag before we really know if vaccines are going to make a difference. There was a doctor on Radio 4 this morning saying all the positives they know so far. How and when to treat etc... Boris will rest the decision on that. Mumble, mumble, vaccines, vaccines, vaccines, first-class NHS, mumble, lots we do know, mumble. We're counting on the good old fashioned British common sense, mumble, vaccines....something like this.

Presumably, the ones who conscientiously object to the experimental, rushed vaccine, will also conscientiously object to an experimental, rushed treatment?

Yes, HBD. I reckon we're about 3 weeks away from knowing if Boris' gamble is reckless or not.

As I wait for my missus to have her second jab. A few points.

Vaccines work

Covid Vaccines help you make Covid antibodies that's it. They were never billed as anything else. You can still get Covid and most people will but they will have a head start when fighting it.

Any side effects, complications or even deaths pale into insignificance compared to the potential deaths if we didn't have them.

And here is the big one for the hypocrites. If our TYK2 1801 compound goes to market for Covid. It will be experimental and sar will be trialing it for years to come. Just like the vaccine.

Yes, always been the same with SAR. The fact that 1801 has been kicked into next year. When there is absolutely no reason to means Covid this year. IMO. But you can't argue what the RNS says because that's what it says and if I was spending over 70k to buy a million shares. I'd make sure I read it a few times.

To be fair to dgaser. That is what the RNS says. Some interpretations here are different and some even corrected Tim's grammah for him but the truth is only Tim and Sareum know what it means.

Recognise your name dgaser. Were you on the OXB board on iii?

HBD. I don't pay top dollar for my guitars but I may replace them all with the actual thing when the time comes. 2 Electric, 2 acoustic, 1 resonator a uke and a cigar box guitar. Got a cellar conversion planned to build into a studio, man cave too. Missus ok with it as long as SAR pay for it.

RMM, Tri guys are so touchy! :-) not like us fell runners. You know where you are with a fell runner. Usually cold, thigh deep in mud and lost.

The only reason we haven't had an RNS yet is the talks, if going on, are still in the negotiating stage and therefore, not official. The buyer can force the decision onto the shareholders making an official offer but most Sareum shares are in private hands and we know what price we want. This will help keep the price up as there can't be many here who would vote for anything less than 20p possibly much more. I think a Kymab style deal at approx 1.5 billion is probably where discussions will start. I'd probably vote for less than that if there was a decent share swap option with the upfront.

How many is too many? n+1 - I'm the same with trainers, guitars and cheap synths. Very close to starting brewing my own beer too. I'm going to be a busy man when I retire on the back of Sareum.

I don't know, It was quite funny to be fair. Unusual because, on the whole, TRI athletes are usually dull as dishwater unless they are telling you about their bikes. :-) Hope you bought when you first appeared here, Plank. more than 100% profit if you did.

Where do they get the figure of 55% institution holdings? Are they doing what others mistakingly do and counting the nominee accounts? My guess is its nothing like that figure. We are more like 80% privately owned.

He won't care, The world is watching this experiment in herd immunity. Johnson has put his faith in the vaccines and that they will reduce deaths and disruption. I wish the press, media would just ask him what the acceptable levels of death and disruption are.

Thanks Thoth. I think this is important because the vaccine look to be keeping most off ventilators so the big market will be reducing hospital stay times. Millions of doses with a clear financial/logistical reason to do it.
