I've got three Children higher here at home on.

Past continuous

They were asking this morning about Father Christmas.

Future simple

Andi wanting to know whether he will be front of the queue to get the vaccine.

Now the train has now slowed down safely.

It has now stopped in the station on if you want, if you want.

If you want me to do a a football analogy, then I I have thought about this.

I would say that, you know, it's it's clear in the first half, you know, the away team gave us an absolute battering Onda.

What we've done now is it's the 78th minute we've got they got a goal on did in the 17th minute.

Now see if we can get another goal on Nick it.

Not to throw it away at this point, because we've got points on the board.

So from that perspective, what I'm saying is that we need more vaccines.

But we also need people to realize that these air not an instant ticket out of anywhere at the moment.

We are in for some hard winter months where people must continue to follow the guidance on How would you reassure them that the vaccine is safe for them and for our residents?

Some of them may be very fail to tell you plain and straight that I genuinely have said to my you know, 78 year old mom who is probably listening now, uh, you know that Mom, you must have this vaccine or any of the vaccines that the M H r A approves as soon as they are available.

Things is really important because you are so at risk.

The H r O makes how quickly after this vaccine, and we know it's only effective after, well, pretty much a month when you've had the first dose.

How soon after that can you hug your mom?

You should not expect you the vaccine, to be protecting you from infection fully until probably seven today, 7 to 10 days after the second infection.

But, um, that doesn't mean that in every single person we can assure complete protection.

It would depend upon not who your mom is but who you are in terms of how well you're going to respond to the vaccine.

Andi, I think until we are properly confident of how the vaccine works on properly confident that disease levels are dropping, that even if you've had the vaccine, you are going to need to continue to follow, although rules that apply for a while longer.

No, I was just gonna ask on the Oxford one.

I was getting a little bit excited there because there is some discussion that that might be given approval before Christmas.

Can you give us any indication about that one?

I'm hopeful again that that would happen, but it's entirely out of my hands.

It's in the hands of the regulator, the MHRA.

We've you know, they take a very firm line, and we take a very firm line that they are independent, that they must do what they do in their own time.

Andi, if that takes them a few weeks, that's fine.

If it has to take them a few months because they've got to ask further questions or they need a peaceful data from the manufacturer, that's also fine.

We go at the speed of science on that one.

We do not rush him in any way, shape or form.

Well, the two doses be enough for that confer.

Will it be an annual thing that the flu jab?

It's a simple as that, Obviously these vaccine trials are, you know, hot off the press on day.

There's this pressing public health need to get the vaccines into service on already.

We're we're seeing that after kind of, you know, three months follow up.

Then already there's this massive protective effect, for example, from the fires of vaccine free Children higher here at home on.

 I made a very special case for Father Christmas, Aunt.
