    Bloody glad I live in Australia - NO community cases here yesterday and all the tennis players are locked up

    I know - I'm so bloody jealous. And the model still has to be to drive down transmissions as low as possible - primarily with NPIs, with vaccines also coming in helpful (but the current view is that the vaccines will come in anddo it all - I doubt it).

    I agree. No other way.

    YES - the key message now has to be that the vaccines are NOT going to do it all.

    I think most of us have been pushing the "vaccines are not going to be a silver bullet" message for a while - I wonderif people will listen now... Probably not :wink: .

    Bob - I went through the Ruff Draft and made a few edits (all in edit mode) / comments. Looks great!

    At least this is some encouraging news from Ireland and UK - the emergency break is still there, but we need to pullit harder (I was afraid somebody had cut the cord). [shared file(s):outbreakinfo_epidemiology_data_2021-01-18.png]
