If we can keep that going for a couple of weeks it should make up for the ones arriving late, that were going to be due in April.

Hopefully the "late" AZ batch of 5m is just "late", and not a month delay to the program.
 
As of 9am on 22 March, 4,301,925 people have tested positive for COVID-19 in the UK.

Positive cases were 5,342.

17 deaths were reported today

146,487 deaths with Covid-19 on the death certificate (up to 5 March)

27,997,996 have had a first dose vaccination. 367,006 first dose vaccinations yesterday. 2,281,384 have had a second dose. 52,612 second dose vaccinations today.
 
I suspect we are getting to the level of infection we are going to have to live with, around 5,000 or so. With the vulnerable vaccinated at least with the first dose, you would hope the government will use only hospitalizations to guide the release of lockdown. Given you can still catch the virus once vaccinated, we will see the numbers rise further once restrictions ease. Hopefully excess mortality will not occur and we can all start getting back to normal.
 
As others have suggested, the number of cases is becoming less relevant.
More relevant are hospitalisations and deaths.
The former are plummeting..

UK: Daily new hospital admissions for COVID-19

Hospital data is available for individual UK nations, and English data by NHS Region. Figures are not comparable between nations as Wales includes suspected COVID-19 patients while the other nations only include confirmed cases.

And if the former are, then the latter will. Also I hate to say this but there were 18 suicides every day in 2019. I know a few people on here talk about the mental health issues with lockdown but that is illuminating in regard to today's death figure

I'd read that there are 450 cancer related deaths per day on average. Not sure how true that is mind.
