Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

I'm glad you agree on the vital importance of the vaccine's mate

Never had any other position.

I stated there was a hierarchy of importance, and for me, in a global setting where a tiny amount of people have been vaccinated and therefore we all our still susceptible to the variants that can be generated, we have to focus on suppression - even in a nation like this which has a lot vaccinated.

Remember the line "no one is safe until everyone is safe"? That's a good maxim.

Covid: Germany limits use of AstraZeneca Covid jab for under-60s

The vaccine maker stresses that regulators find the benefits of its Covid-19 shot outweigh the risks.

Germans pondering whether anyone who had the first AZ jab should be switched to another vaccine for their second.

That's what should happen here. I'd far prefer not to have to go back and have another shot of it. I have zero faith in this vaccine. None.

Why no faith?

Cos Macron said that it was piss de la gnatte.

Are they looking for it here?

"The German medicines regulator found 31 cases of a type of rare blood clot among the nearly 2.7 million people who had received the vaccine in Germany."

Why no faith?

Just one too many stories about this vaccine. If it wasn't an emergency the AZ vaccine would never have seen the light of day. And we all know it.

As of yet precautionary.

Did we have any in the 34 million mate ?

 

[TheSecondComing]

So the new line from the pro-lockdown heads is don’t get the vaccine and invest in a underground bunker?

 

[davek]

As of yet precautionary.

Did we have any in the 34 million mate ?

And as I said to you: are they counting it?

Let's deal with what we do know - 31 in 2.7m. How are we accounting for that not exactly statistically insignificant figure then?

You'd do better pondering the answer to that than lend blind support to a vaccine.

31 blood clots amongst 2.7m people.

Do the maths.

1 case per 87,000 I make it

 

[davek]

1 case per 87,000 I make it

Yes.

Shocking.

 

[BlueStevie35]

Yes.

Shocking.

How many UK cases have there been?
