He’s under 18 mate, so doesn’t qualify.

Besides there’s no way he’d take an injection without physical restraint, which is something we’re not prepared to do, due to the potential psychological damage it would cause to him.

Genuine question here: are they allowed to vaccinate when they're asleep? It would probably wake your son up, but it might be a more comfortable procedure.*

*For him, you and your wife.

It happened pretty much last spring, so the politics is the issue - the rank bad policy making of this murderous Tory Government who will go down in history as criminals.

I don't doubt that the government has a job that is almost certainly going to upset many and cause harm to even more. In many instances, they are damned either way. I also have more respect for those whose opinions have real consequences than those of us harking from the sidelines whose opinions have no impact one way or another. Having said that, there is repeated evidence of the scientific advice pointing in a certain direction, and the government choosing either to delay following it or to continue deliberately down the opposite path before eventually following it.

And they will do that perhaps for social or economic reasons. Similarly MHRA and EMA say AZ is fine for over 65, but Germany insists it will not use it for that group. Why?.... Scientific, Economic or Political ?.....

It’s pretty much the same businesses open and rules for schools as last March, there might be more footfall because people are too fearful of losing income or families have expanded, I’ve not noticed it much by me like but then I’ve only been out 2 times in the 5 weeks I’ve been off

Good question and one I’ve never thought of.

He’s beyond terrified of needles due to the amount he has stuck in him when he was younger.

I don't know ethically if they'd be allowed, but again if you're providing parental consent then it may not be an issue - e.g. your son can't say no himself etc.

If it's one needle and they can do it in the upper arm, I was just thinking they could get it in quick and withdraw with the needle, but might not be quick enough.

Genuine question how long does everyone think this pandemic will last?

Obviously I know it won’t ever go away Im just talking about returning to a relatively normal life. I’ve just kept myself from really reading about any updates on a daily basis because I think it will just consume my life, got some fella in work though that gives me a daily death update everyday.
