We do not need 340 million doses of vaccine
We do not need 340 million doses of vaccine - Errors owned up to at end of description.
I guess we are going to need some vaccinations but not 340 million.
A lot of the payments seem like a scam.
And let's face it: Trump has got it covered so we don't need to rely on the losers we've got in our own academia.
Here are timestamps to avoid needing to listen to the whole thing...
0:00 Synopsis - Quick rundown of what is in the video
2:26 Current state of the pandemic in Britain
3:10 A recap of how bad the first wave was
4:23 How increased testing is not what is driving the increase in cases
4:55 Photoperiod - How transmission of the virus will accelerate on the 25th October and this will start to show up in the figures in the first week in November.
Ignore this section as late dawns are maybe worse than early dusks and time of year effects how long it takes to kill the virus all day long. The angle of the sun in the sky has a big effect and it needs a more detailed video.
Also, the glass on buses and trains removes vital UVB light.
7:16 Previous video - Reminder of how there are milder versions of the virus now circulating.
8:18 Vaccine purchases - The UK government has signed up for 340 million doses and has donated for clinical trials and a factory being built.
17:24 Advert - for me
17:35 Advert - for For Britain
17:55 The End
Apologies for the mess that I made of section 6.
I repeat myself a lot in that bit.
I knew I should have done it again but couldn't be bothered for the tiny amount of views that this will likely get.
The Internet just doesn't appreciate me enough to justify any proper effort.
This video was a bit lashed together but I just lack the heart to do a proper job.
Errors...
The four minute estimate for how long it takes evening light to destroy all copies of the virus is more than 30 minutes to destroy 90 percent of the virus at that time of day at that time of year.
Older virions have been in stronger sunlight earlier so when you calculate things in a more sophisticated and realistic manner than my top of my head calculations.
The length of time taken to destroy 90 percent of the virus is determined by the angle of the sun from the horizon.
Even the midday sun has only a little more than a quarter of the power in the winter than it has at the same time in the height of summer.
Also, the glass on buses and trains removes vital UVB light.
It will take me time to put something together for this.
The other thing I would do differently with this video if I did it again is I feel to realise one motivation our government had for over buying the vaccines. Other governments (including Cuba) find it cheaper to bribe our leaders to buy their vaccines for them rather than buy their own vaccines out of their own budgets. We are getting ripped off in more ways than had occurred to me at the time of making the video.
I should have provided more detailed information showing you how well tested many of these vaccines were at the time of our government signing up to buy even more and giving us nonsense about how they might not really work.
This really is one of the biggest fiddles I have seen in my lifetime.
Sorry for making such a shoddy job of a video that really does need doing well by someone out there.
