PHE data show up to 50% reduction in transmission of COVID from first vaccine. 3 implications: 1) Getting a vaccine helps protect others 2) This is likely to be improved by getting your second dose 3) If people you meet are vaccinated it reduces your risk- but not completely.

It's not every day you see a talk on digital transformation that includes lego, Charles II, sharks, Isaac Asimov, dinosaurs and an argument that says we should perhaps let panda bears go extinct. Unless you watch my talk every day, that is.
Our Head of Local Government @GlenOcsko recently spoke at @digileaders' Insight Live: Public Sector week on why #DigitalEvolution is the new #DigitalTransformation. If you missed the talk or would like to watch it again, the webinar is available here: hubs.ly/H0Kkbyx0
