Ordering and getting are two different things as every vaccine needs approval by regulators in the case of the US and the EU for both mRna was December.The US ordered early from multiple sources and rolled that out quickly.
The US had constantly a higher percentage of their population vaccinated than the EU/Ireland.
On the 20th of January the percentage of fully vaccinated people was seven times higher in the US than in the EU. You can look that up yourself on ourworld in data. There is no Biden effect.
If that is window dressing for you - I love that window dressing and would hope the EU and Ireland would do similar - as the difference can be seen.
So no its not producing. The Israeli Heath Minister has stated categorically said the Cyprus story is false and even if Cyprus did ask Israel would say No.Israeli Teva is in talks with others to do some co-manufacture potentially. They were approached by and approached themselves some of the current companies which manufacture Covid-19 vaccines.
Israel is also doing its own research on antivirals and Covid-19 Vaccines.
Moderna is also used in Israel. They will have soon much more vaccines available than they need. Cyprus showed already earlier interest in getting some of the vaccines Israel won't need.
Due to supply issues with AZ, they were short 20,000 doses.Unfortunately the promised 100,000 vaccines to be administered last week never happened. Big announcements are made with lots of publicity, but then they fall flat on their face.
They can't control deliveries or non deliveries.Unfortunately the promised 100,000 vaccines to be administered last week never happened. Big announcements are made with lots of publicity, but then they fall flat on their face.
When do they find out that a delivery won't be made? Is it at the last minute?They can't control deliveries or non deliveries.
According to them it was .When do they find out that a delivery won't be made? Is it at the last minute?
I've used the ECDC for vaccine deliveries but that's only going to be updated today for week 8 which is last week. That has a lot of data on it , and I haven't had a chance to go through it in detail.Does anyone know what the actual figures are? All we are getting is information that is a couple of days old. I haven't seen any detailed information about what % of each group has been vaccinated. Has anyone? We have figures that contradict with what the HSE provides to the ECDC. We have no information about weekly expected supplies and actual deliveries. I saw Fergal Bowers saying the information around vaccines is not exactly free flowing.
I don't want to hear next week we will vaccinate 100,000 people or next month we will vaccinate 10,000,000 people. I just want to up to date information about expected supplies, actual deliveries and information about number of vaccines dispensed and to what groups.....It seems like they are completely lacking a proper IT infrastructure to capture this information. These are key figures. Do the HSE themselves know what the daily figures look like or are they still working on previous days?

The HSE are issuing daily cumulative figures on one of its website pages I'll try and post the link again, but thats only for February onwards.
I will say the following though, from what I've seen so far anything that was received has been used with very little stock held back, with the exception of AZ we only used about 50% of deliveries ( 44k to 21st February) as its not being administered to older people who are now the focus, its being given to under 70s mainly healthcare workers some in the 18-24 age group.
There are timing differences and these are to be expected as collating does take a few days.
Dunno what he's doing but it is what it is the data is out there.....Just to be clear, not accusing them of not using the vaccines. Having said that, the argument for not using AZ on older people is getting weaker by the day.
These are key figures and they are not complicated figures. There shouldn't be a delay in collating the data. Certainly not a few days. Is Paul Reid sitting there at 5.30 this evening in his office going 'Right, I will find out what happened today in a couple of days time when we have got all the paperwork sorted'. No organisation would accept KPI's that are days out of date. It means the systems are not in place.
Even those figures on the dashboard are not much use. They are two days late, include no data on expected supplies versus actual deliveries so people can see for themselves the issues around the supply and there are no total numbers for each cohort. Telling me you have done 159k in cohort 1 is pretty useless if they don't tell us how much people they are counting in cohort 1.
It is the HSE that we are talking about. If what you've outlines is what happens I'd be pleasantly surprised.Is Paul Reid sitting there at 5.30 this evening in his office going 'Right, I will find out what happened today in a couple of days time when we have got all the paperwork sorted'.
