Let’s be brutally honest here OUR government in Westminster should look at give our next quota of the vaccine to countries that can save lives. If we have 200k of vaccine unused & the likes of NI are able to roll out faster we should save lives in those countries. Arlene Foster obviously is doing a far better job than dithering Drakeford & gormless Gething. | ![](/images/avatars/9450.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Wales did not vote for Johnson. Thats obvious. Working together to achieve the best outcomes possible for the people of Wales might be better then the nonsense you have posted. This is too important. Looking the childish name calling. Grow up mun. That said, if you provided overall uk government funding on the basis of need and desired outcomes, then our Welsh government would have much more money to spend every year. A good thing.

Wales already gets more funding than England as does NI and Scotland as you well know under the Barnett formula. The trouble is after 20 of the labour run Welsh Assembly this extra funding has been wasted and poverty in Wales has increased. Why should the failing Welsh government be rewarded. Time for Drakeford and Vaughan guessing to start using the 200,000 unused vaccines in Wales and start to save extra lives. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

Bridgend as many other parts of Wales voted conservative in the last general election ... That's a fact 21% voted Tory in the last Welsh referendum, I have no doubt that will increase in the upcoming election even with Drakeford giving 16 year old like yourself the chance to vote. If Plaid were clever they would steer away from devolution & probably do very well in the upcoming elections, I have little doubt they would also spread funding around Wales more fairly than the chimps currently running the WA. Grown ups realise that things like a relief road to encourage business into Wales is a must unfortunately we have idiots believing Wales will prosper from the rain & wind & returning to be governed by Europe (which will never happen). | ![](/images/avatars/9450.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

You want to talk about levelling up, ask Drakeford why Cardiff continues to get more funding than is fair, compared to the rest of Wales. I'm sure there are mnay people in areas of England asking why Wales gets more per head from Westminster than they do, that's every area outside London so over 40 million people. Now desired outcomes, we want ALL of Wales to be improved, not just the South East corner. That's mostly outside Bojo's control as whatever happens the Senedd will decide where the money is spent, Drakeford made that very clear, he wouldn't accept any extra money if it came with conditions. So Bojo could tripple Welsh money and it wouldn't matter unless the Senedd changed tack. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

Most surgeries will run special sessions. Killay ran a Saturday session last week and my brother in law is going next Saturday for his in Clydach. This is how flu vaccines are rolled out also. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Totally agree with you, they should be extending the opening hours we’ll in to the evening and working 7 days a week to get this done. There’s are potential issues which need to be overcome, such as contracts of employment where people can’t be forced to work outside certain parameters, extra costs will be incurred so money has to be made available but it needs to be sorted. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

I think the amount currently being lost to the Welsh economy will supersede any additional pay. Hopefully some of 10% sick who work for the NHS will be back in work now they have had their jabs. As they are busier than they ever have been with over 10% on the sick makes you wonder what they do in normal times (I exclude ICU & respiratory nurses in that statement) | ![](/images/avatars/9450.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

i doubt they will open surgeries late. The vaccination centres are already open late and 7 days a week. Surgeries will run Saturday clinics like they do already for flu jabs. The health board, which covers Swansea and Neath Port Talbot, aims to eventually vaccinate 3,200 to 3,300 people per day seven days a week, depending on supplies and numbers of staff to deliver the injections. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

The amount being lost to the Welsh economy will supersede the additional payments, but the extra funds would probably have to come from Westminster as the WG don’t have the ability to raise significant funds to pay for it. Down our way, in normal times they run outpatients clinics etc, but at the moment they have been reduced to the bare minimum and outpatient staff are being redeployed to over areas, for example to cover the staff who are on sick or self isolating after being exposed to a covid. I know someone who works in a hospital, they were potentially exposed to Covid and have had to self isolate for almost 20 days since the end of November re potential exposure before they eventually caught it at the end of December and had to go off work again. Standard Clinical Wards have been converted to Covid Wards where the level of care required can be a lot more intense. The requirement to change clothing, barrier nurse, see people dyeing etc makes it even more demanding. Stress levels are normally high at the best of times, budgets are tight and staffing levels are minimal. Maybe we’ll get back to outpatients appointments and non covid work when we are the other sid f this. [Post edited 16 Jan 2021 23:19]

As an HCA said on Qt Thursday, they have to cover extra beds when short staffed which means the level of care is poorer. People off sick can't go back to work until they are well again, regardless of jabs. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

Good effort by PHS. They vaccinated 5000, NHS and health care workers at a mass vaccination centre, plus another 2700 health care workers at other sites all with the Pfizer vaccine. Wonder if Drakeford uses that as an example of what can be done with a bit of planning. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

I can only go on personal experience. I know Killay ran a clinic last Saturday and Clydach are running one next Saturday. Those are definite. In the years I lived in Dunvant Killay have given flu jabs on Saturdays. There were several between September and October. My sister had hers on a Saturday in Clydach this year. I had mine on a special Thursday session in Pontardawe this year at the Rugby Club. I wouldnt be surprised if they do that in the next few weeks for covid jabs. These surgeries are much bigger than Harbourside or SA1. Once the over 80s are vaccinated most people will be able to get to the vaccination centres and the plan is for these to run 7 days a week. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
