lol

All I'm doing is posting research to back my opinion up 3 months later.

It's not a witch-hunt

That’s not the GOT way, vaults please, otherwise it’s just a passive aggressive you’re all wrong and I’m right.

My recollection is that there was various debates over whether BAME rates could be attributed to genetics or socio-economic factors, with the usual disagreements.

Thanks. I was in Boots yesterday and was told that the vaccine costs approx £60 for the under-70s. Not possible to get free on NHS unless you're in vulnerable group. I'd like to ask my doc if that means me but I can't contact him at all.
The NHS website doesn't mention anything about the above but simply says that the pneumonia vaccine is available for over-65s.

It's simply just Dr kenshin backing his opinion up 3 months later with research.

That's all, after all it doesn't really matter that much does it? lol who gives a damn what I think.

The research absolutely matters. In my work, we’ve followed PHE guidance re BAME, and their previous advice was for us to take additional steps to protect BAME staff, because it was still unknown to what extent genetic or socio-economic factors were at play. So they, rightly, had not taken a stance, that may now change.

Sorry if I'm stating the obvious but are you not able to email the surgery ? I presume you have been unable to get through on the phone ?
I was thinking maybe you could take a letter for your GP to the surgery .

If you support continuing restrictions, or particularly another lockdown, then you can't criticise the government when unemployment soars.

You can't support lockdown and act like it doesn't have huge societal and economic effects. I keep hearing views like these and they make no sense.

No email available sorry. As you suggest, I am writing a letter to the doc which I'll put in a cleft stick and run it round to the surgery!
I know the pandemic is dead serious but so far it has affected a small proportion of the population. The vast majority of us still have needs and concerns which require attention and I feel that in this neck of the woods at any rate they are not being adequately addressed.
