Brazil are closing in on everywhere fast

I mentioned the Brazil situation to the missus, she asked why it's so bad...I replied "They have 30 million obese and widespread poverty" that one sentence uttered in innocents really shows how we, as so called society have royaly fucked up!

Meanwhile the Czech Deputy Prime Minister Jan Hamacek said he had instructed the Czech ambassador in Denmark to try to buy the 2.4 million AstraZeneca vaccines doses that the Danes would no longer be using.

You would hope that Denmark would move these vaccines to another EU Member especially the way the EU Commission have gone on about AZ failing to deliver on their contract and CZ both need and want these.

There is also the issue of Government incompetence/denial.

It's got to the point that the EU want to restrict exports from Europe on a product that no one in Europe wants.

Well, clearly CZ want it.

I think the government will allow foreign travel and holidays if they feel that certain destinations are safe enough.

What I hope doesn't happen is that those who then travel aren't the subject of demonisation on here and in the mainstream media outlets.

Surely the issue then is where else are that country allowing tourists in from

That's a good point - the hordes of German tourists currently in the Balearics can't be a good thing given the current state of both Spain and Germany.

Good point, if for example we won't allow travel to for example France but will to Portugal what do we do if Portugal also allow travel from France. I'm sure bigger brains than yours and mine will have a plan for this, or perhaps not eh!

Bit like us with the Athletico fans coming in for CL game at Liverpool.

Reported 398 deaths (again) today, if nothing else the Russians are certainly consistent

Belarus churn out the most regular numbers.

What if you're fully vaccinated and going to the Greek Islands who have had very low cases throughout the pandemic?

Well at least not without a note from Boris.

It has also been announced that chancellor Angela Merkel, 66, is to receive the AstraZeneca vaccine on Friday. The jab is only recommended for over 60 year olds in Germany.

Turkey’s death figs are very suspect, with the number of cases they’ve reported you’d expect deaths to be over 100,000 not the 34,000 odd they are reporting

Not sure that Erdogan's regime is known for its transparency.

Crackpot populist leader.
