jet2 cancelled our flight out on 7th march (sunday). They offered us the 6th march instead so we took it.

The only reason we went for the sunday flight in the first place was that it was half the price of the saturday flight.

Just been speaking to a friend who is a local councillor in Majorca. They have been told that it is very unlikely that any holiday traffic will be allowed until at earliest 1st July, and even that will require a massive acceleration of the Spanish vaccination programme. Apparently they aren’t that interested in how many in the UK have been vaccinated/ if you have been vaccinated. It all depends on the progress in Spain.

Gran Canaria isn't a massive island so it shouldn't take too long I imagine. As I said I don't know the actual numbers and am not sure where to find a reliable link to post on here.

I don't know about other places, eg Greece, Turkey etc etc.....

So there is shortage of vaccines just now for the EU. They have said they should have the agreed amount by the end of March.

As for the island. Just yesterday Torries said we can have everyone over the age of 16 vaccinated in 3 months and 21 days. So the race is on to get the vaccine out and we can roll out 30,000 aday across all islands

85% of the top 2 groups have been vaccinated.

The plan will see everyone over the age of 16 to have both vaccines by the mid summer.

I had a chat with one of the stall owners at the Lighthouse today. He said that whereas people used to haggle with him over prices, they are more inclined to say keep the change. There really is a spirit here that can't be broken. It makes me very positive and happy to see people pulling together in the face of this pandemic. Really looking forward to the summer.

"what are lock down restrictions now in GC, what time do bars close ?

GC is teetering on the edge of going down to level 2 again. We will find out tomorrow. If it doesn't happen this review it will probably happen on the next one.

"85,412 vaccinated

29,047 with 2 doses vacations

85% of the top 2 groups have been vaccinated.

The plan will see everyone over the age of 16 to have both vaccines by the mid summer."

Hope you are right! But the numbers are still very challenging. The population is over 2 million so 85,000 is a pretty small dent in it .

What you are saying is absolutely correct.

But.

It assumes linear progression. The limiting factor has been the availability of the vaccine. We started off with only Pfizer and were squeezing an extra shot out of every vial. When we got the Moderna there was a step increase. We are expecting to have the AstraZeneca vaccine too and that will mean another step increase.

Whem taking demographics one has to take the under 16 out of that equation too.

I'm also under the impression that the mystical figure of 70% is a general figure for all population densities. I would imagine that adding to a population with already vaccinated people (tourists) increases herd immunity rather than decreasing it. But I'm no scientist. I just believe there comes a point when new infections are so low and deaths so infrequent that the economy starts to move into the fore. Don't think that will be a step change but rather a gradual and highly regulated process.

Just my thoughts...
