It's also a good way to show that I messed up and the link was meant to be an email to a friend and not to the newsgroup:-) However I might as well fill you in with the details as to why I was sending it. Figure 4 of the above link used in conjunction with https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/details/interactive-map We had been discussing the average age and population density of an area against covid rates for that area and the fact that most people under 45 have not had their first dose. Basically to see how similar the maps looked when compared with age and/or population density. Figures for vaccine uptake by age are taken from here https://www.gov.uk/government/public...report#history So more figures to play with if you have not seen them.

It's also a good way to show that I messed up and the link was meant to be an email to a friend and not to the newsgroup:-) Ageing issue ?? :-) However I might as well fill you in with the details as to why I was sending it. Figure 4 of the above link used in conjunction with https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/details/interactive-map We had been discussing the average age and population density of an area against covid rates for that area and the fact that most people under 45 have not had their first dose. Basically to see how similar the maps looked when compared with age and/or population density. Figures for vaccine uptake by age are taken from here https://www.gov.uk/government/public...report#history "Based on antibody testing of blood donors, 73.6% of the adult population now have antibodies to COVID-19 from either infection or vaccination compared to 15.6% that have antibodies from infection alone. Over 98% of adults aged 60 or older have antibodies from either infection or vaccination." There is an upper age limit of between 66 and 70 (exceptions apply) for blood donors so I don't see how they can make the claim of 98%. 98% of the donors who are over 60 might make more sense. So more figures to play with if you have not seen them. It gave me something to do whilst I was off work with a bad knee. |

Yes the Black Death did overturn the way things were done considerably, but even the two world wars didnt and they killed a hell of a more than any new pandemic will now. |

Sure but not enough to make any difference to the problem with the NHS as the boomers start using it more as they age. |
