IIUC, I guess those aged 71 are pretty f***ed up if they stick to the 70/79. I mean, should I really wait 8 years to get the vaccine ?

The bit that worries me is the "It's perfectly safe" comment - this coming from a government agency makes me assume that it is a form of euthanasia...

Shingles is caused by the same virus as chickenpox; it just manifests itself much more severely as you get older. AFAIK the vaccine is the same one that you give your kids so you can put your tin foil hat away.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

There is a huge number of people in their 70's. An example is that there are over 4 million people in their 70's who still hold UK driving licenses, and that number I suspect is a proportion of those in their 70's. So I guess it would be a difficult to plan and organise for that number in any one year let alone how expensive it would be to vaccinate them all.

I perfectly understood that. I was merely pointing out that the people aged 71 will have to wait 8 years to get their vaccine. Which at 71, can be quite long.

Yes, I agree. And from this [^] a higher rate in the 70 age group could suggest that the NHS is wrong to discriminate those aged between 71 and 78.

No they are stashed in the safe with a backup copy in my bank's vault. I tried renting space in Fort Knox as well, but they're a little fussy after the Operation Grand Slam incident...

You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colon."

Nirvonix disappearance - what we need is middle men.
We need 'Cloud Brokers'.
They would marshall Cloud capacity. They would also drive competition between proprietary suppliers.

I certainly use local data when possible; my Cloud stuff is for backup and distribution to my boxes.

You need to get ready with your backup plan (which is a quick transition to another provider).
