:covid_19: đŸ˜· đŸ„ Corona Virus the thread for all your fears ❓

You don’t get infected by someone saying something.

I suspect what will happen is a two tier approach

Had the vaccine - come right on in
No vaccine - proof of negative test / quarantine

I don’t want to be around people that refused to have the jab - mainly because I don’t want to be around people that stupid and selfish.

We had to when we went to Thailand in 2007 (yellow fever that is).

Devil’s advocate remember :-

What about people that can’t have the jab, like Captain Tom, because they’re on medication or treatment that the jab would interfere with, or vice-versa


No, but, in extreme cases, it can cause mental harm to someone


Which is why I said “refused”. Those that can’t due to medical issues are exempt from that.

Typical Gen Z always thinking of themselves, get themselves a job in the NHS as they know they’ll jump to the top of the Vaccination queue :wink: :wink: :wink:

It’s fucking awful mate. I’ve posted again and again on themes of the government being late, making decisions that defy all commonsense, including the one that sent 25K to care homes from hospitals without a test.

When @CB-Saint said that so many of over 80s had been vaccinated, I couldn’t help thinking “of those that are left”

I think the government know that too. They’re despicable cunts for not admitting it, and saying quite the opposite very recently.

Having said all that, Johnson looked both weary and a bit more humble tongiht, going out of his way to address shit he had forgotten when he’d been given a multi-question.

I don’t profess to know the minds of others, but at the same time, I can’t imagine that grim toll sits well with any of them, on a political level or a human one.

:laughing:
To be fair it was a bit of a surprise. Thought you had to be 18.

AZ vaccine. The big question is, given my condition, will my body produce a useful antibody response? There is very little data to go on.

Genuine question here. For survivors like you will you be tested for an antibody response or just be another one just given the vaccine ticked off the list? It seems it would make sense to check to add to the data :man_shrugging:t3:

Yep valuable data required, a lot of people in the same boat so it makes sense to monitor your responses Martin. Have they said they’re going to do that?

I think that’s what happened with the latest results which gave the data on effectiveness of the single dose and the reduction in chance of transmission

Dr John Campbell reporting details this evening on the AZ vaccine
worth a listen
