Just a (COVID) Numbers Game
More than 68% of 18 to 29-year-olds in England have had a first jab, while 88.6% of all UK adults have had one.
In total, over 85 million doses have now been administered across the UK.
More than 72.5% of UK adults have received two doses so far.
Health Secretary Sajid Javid described delivering 85 million doses as a "phenomenal achievement", while vaccines minister Nadhim Zahawi urged people to get both jabs "so we can carry on doing the things we've missed".
On Sunday the UK reported 24,470 new Covid cases as well as a further 65 deaths within 28 days of a positive test.

hmmm. not going to ever go away, i suppose...
It'll be a factor in our lives like the Flu. Annoying and inconvenient - once enough people get vaccinated... and of course if it doesn't mutate into something REALLY nasty!
