You'd have to be an absolute miser to read things like this and not grin from ear-to-ear. It's an absolute miracle what is happening right now - like one of the nurses who made the first round of injections said; "We're injecting hope".

Well in mate.

Spot on mate.

I didn't think I'd be as emotional as I am tbh I just feel like a huge weight has lifted from my shoulders.

This isnt an anti AZ post and id take it offered it, but the Swiss refused to sanction it. AZ are Swiss.

Switzerland declines to authorise AstraZeneca vaccine over insufficient data

Medical regulator deems there is insufficient data to reach firm conclusions on efficacy

AZ are British/Swedish and the article was written on Feb 3rd .....

Definitely mate. Honestly I could cry atm, I've tried my best to put getting covid to one side and trying to tell myself I wouldn't get it again or if I did it wouldn't be as bad. But the fear is there and wouldn't go away.

I feel like today I've just managed to step out of its shadow for the first time and that just feels like a very overwhelming and positove emotion

Tomorrow.

If it is the same as when I had mine you will be asked if you have any concerns over the vaccine or the vaccination process. I'd be really interested to know what they say when you tell them about AZ not reporting evidence of side effects, the AZ virus not working effectively and the poor condition of some of the vaccination centres.

I forgot you had a spell of it. Everyone has gone through all this in their own world/concerns, and whatever they are, that little painless jab is the first step back to some normality.

When Mrs R gets hers next Monday, that will be the beginning of the end in my world; for 12 months I have striven to protect her, from next week, she has sommet else as well.

Spot on mate, and having that extra little help with protecting the missus will give you a bit more peace of mind as well.

It's great to sit here and say I was one of the 500k people who have had their vaccine today.

A great day today
