    Elli Blackburn is out this week.

    I wonder how many of our men's players have it? Better to get it out of the way now.

    Good luck finding more. The supplier has been ravaged by panic buying.

    True. We found it difficult to get some, as well as Oximeter. We have the Oximeter on order with a Pharmacy.

    One supplier has orders for 40,000 units and stock is arriving late Jan. Another has orders for over 20K
    Previously a very slow but steady seller.

    I go with Powerade and Zooper Doopers for a hangover so I may try that when I eventually succumb.

    High risk people will most likely need ongoing boosters to minimise illness (though EU regulators are already raising concerns about covid boosters and the impacts on immunity/long term health) but it’s obvious now that this type of vaccine is pretty ineffective against transmission as the virus mutates so mandates and restrictions should be a thing of the past.

    I hope they recover quickly B4L.
    My wife delivered our 2nd child whilst having full on flu symptoms.
    30 yrs on both mother and daughter thriving but it was anxious and miserable at the time.

    Okay but just banking on herd immunity doesn't really seem like it'll work either. I think there needs to be something else.

    Even getting the remaining 20% of unvaccinated people double dosed would be big since they're so much more likely to get the virus and suffer the worse symptoms.
