Why are people morons mate if don’t want to be injected with a vaccine?

You should read that Ben Elton novel, "Blind Faith". Satire but it may answer your question.

'please don't make me answer anything difficult or specific, if we all think happy thoughts it'll go away'

It won't be an established vaccine though. All the other vaccines I am OK with, and got them all. (thanks to mom and dad) But even the best vaccine in this case will be rushed. Let the old and unhealthy first (if they want ofc, I assume most will) go get it, then if nobody dies I may also get it.

Why wouldn't you want to be given a vaccine?

Yes you can but also by doing nothing that inaction will eventually lead to a full lockdown when the hospitals are at full or over capacity and it will take months for that backlog to clear like it did earlier this year. In that time the lives of these people will be ruined anyhow. There is no one choice that skirts around that and it's amazing how many people (not saying you are one of them) are trying to round off square pegs.

If you had a time machine you would go back and shutdown end of February when the disease wasn't shooting through the population, close the borders and you would get away with a 2/3 week lockdown instead of the months that we had. In theory that's what needs to happen now before it escalates out of control again. Problem is as you can see from here people only buy in when they can see death all around them. Otherwise it can't be true.



You do understand how vaccines work don't you? It might not be specifically for you, but it might mean you don't carry it and give to someone else who doesn't want it for whatever reason but is at risk. Then you come along and give them a dirty case of the rona.

I'm not sure anyone credible is suggesting doing nothing.

I would after it had been properly tested.
I haven’t had the flu jab though and neither have my kids

Properly tested like the flu jab?

Will you be getting a flu jab?

No mate no intention of getting it, you can still get the flu after you’ve had it so what’s the point?

It reduces your risk and it reduces the risk of spreading it to others.

It protects against the main types of flu viruses, although there's still a chance you might get flu it is significantly reduced.

She’s okay mate, thanks for asking.

It’s more like a heavy head cold than anything else, so she’s uncomfortable rather than ill. My eldest lad ( massive fanny ) has deffo got it too now, as he’s lost his smell and taste today.

Good that you haven't progressed to the bleeding from the eyes phase. If you haven't got 57 rolls of toilet paper to constantly wipe them, you'll be in trouble.

We’re still working our way through the lager and pasties, the bleeding from the eyes comes next I believe.

I'm expecting Dave to advocate branding all of those who don't get vaccinated any day now. The Star of COVID or something. We can then know not to let them into shops or rent them property.
