Stanford Hall looking stunning today. Sunrise, blue skies and snow ❄️ 💙Feeling lucky to work in such a beautiful location @dms_dmrc @DMS_DefRehab

@s_goater1 @anthony_gilham 4/Current estimate is 8.7% of adults in England have antibodies - no where near herd immunity. Therefore best chance of avoiding (possibly fatal) illness and having society return to normal is to have, and support mass vaccination. I hope this answers your Q!

[Sam May @Sam_Rawli]

@s_goater1 @anthony_gilham 3/Herd immunity threshold for covid is estimated 60-80%. With no vaccines, this means 60-80% of the population would need to have been infected. When 1.15% of covid infections are fatal, this would lead to huge numbers of deaths, disability, and would overwhelm healthcare.

[Sam May @Sam_Rawli]

@doctorwibble We have Lotus Biscoff at the QE which I reckon are a strong contender!
