So it did

I realise that, not questioning the correction at all. My original statement was also preceded by "I think..." so wasn't meant in any way to be definitive. And after all it is the efficacy that's important and if that is lower throughout then it kind of makes my initial statement redundant but reinforces the point I was making that there is less protection from AZ.

And is a lower efficacy throughout

I agree, I think AZ has a quicker tail off in efficiency than the others. Majority of early vaccinations here were AZ so that waning has been noticeable. Double vaxxed and boosted are catching Omicron and we're waiting to see what the impact in ICU is.

Maria Schneider Orchestra have postponed their European tour so no concert for me in January. Can't say I blame them

I can't see how we know that yet as Omicron hasn't been around that long. Lab experiments obviously give an indication but how the booster responds in the community is still to be seen. The waning of the original vaccinations only really became apparent with time. UK medical authorities are suggesting 5-6 months so we have a range from 2 months in Holland to 8 in the US. And there in lies Pim's and everyone else's conundrum. Each new variant brings its own new range of unknowns. I will say that Pim is providing a very eloquent counter to many of the arguments that I naturally adhere to and providing some food for thought. Pim you are your middle ground!

These now have a new home

I'll PM you shortly

Couple of duplicates that I'll happily donate to a good home - free in UK or at cost of postage elsewhere Konstrukt feat. Alexander Hawkins & Alan Tomlinson - L.O.T.U.S Bobby Bradford/Frode Gjerstad Quartet - Delaware River both NM. Both musically very good indeed They come as a pair. Postage possibly after Xmas before NY but probably after New Year

Yes, there isn't a middle ground here that I can see. In the UK there's lots of hot air about liberty being infringed when it comes to showing either vaccination status or negative test proof to enter large venues. I just want to to ask the more swivel-eyed of our MPs (one of whom thought it appropriate to compare this introduction to living in Nazi Germany, ffs) whether they ever object to their liberty being infringed by having to have a driving licence to prove eligibility to drive on our roads.

Benjamin Myers would get my vote but then again I'm no huge McEwan fan as I said

Matthew Tavares & Leland Whitty - June 12th [Mr. Bongo, UK 2020]

Yes, and a good deal of what they write is taken from here about the Cleopatra album https://theperlichpost.blogspot.com/2016/09/before-they-were-famous-joe-maneri.html

Alternatively, from the Bandcamp page that Niko linked to above " the resulting LP, originally issued as Eastern Standard Time in 1962 and subsequently reissued as Turkish Delights, included several tracks with jazz saxophonist Johnny Griffin"

Thanks for posting this.

Any good? I never enjoy McEwan novels as much as all the hype suggests I should but always willing to give him another shot

I'm not sure Omicron has been with us long enough to assess the severity just yet, experts are saying two weeks more at least. By then the transmission will have passed to the more vulnerable. The other issue they are concerned about is the sheer number of potential hospitalisations, maybe not of the severity of previous strains but I'll enough to need hospital care. The mayor of London has just declared a "major incident" because of pressure on the hospital's, already. Experience in South Africa is hopeful but their population differs greatly in age profile, natural immunity and vulnerability.
