Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

I can understand a booster jab being needed every winter, and would take one. But the idea of needing one every few months (2 or 3 shots a year) is not for me. There is no way that we need booster jabs at the height of summer, and I won't be taking multiple per year. One a year is enough, especially for younger people.

Raab apparently on TV this morning getting the numbers wrong yet again. What a fantastic government we have.

Diane abbot though

As far as I know it’s because this is an intramuscular injection so there is no need to aspirate

Yeah but as the Dr has explained its standard procedure in hospitals to ensure that the needle hasn’t hit a vein

There has been lots of concerns of the issues that could be caused by vaccines going directly into the bloodstream

 

[BlueToff]

the point being that every country in Europe didn't go what we went through between August and November

But they did get hit hard in October and November hence Germany shutting down

There is no hiding from this. You lockdown/stay shut up - then when you do eventually open up, you get a massive hit

I presume the testing option is to get it through the vote, then it'll be removed under emergency powers

Why would it be removed? It’s the safest thing you can do.

A lot of this is down to anti vaxxers ordering tests so they can fake the results for these passes. The government should have planned for this.

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

any anti boosters want to form a coalition with us anti vaxers? We can take all the triple jabbed out then.*

*triple jabbed, you can apply once the 4th jab is rolled out and you’ve made your mind up.

Think anti boosters have crossed the picket line in queue now 200 deep, the stewards reckon it's people who have missed previous appointment and now sphincter twitching... It's basically chaos!

Or it’s people actually doing the tests to prove they don’t have covid which is safer than flashing a vaccine passport at someone?

You would with Intramuscular and subcutaneous. All our jabbers do it. I do depot injections in bum and sometimes arm, always do it.
Can't believe anybody is not doing.

This is where I am but the problem is the covid passes. So I’ll need this booster to attend gigs and games I’ve got planned. So what can I do. I don’t want this booster (booking the thing is impossible anyway) as I’ve had two shots and had actual covid in the past 7 months.

The WHO has advised all countries not to, several years ago apparently. Denmark the only government that have made it regulated to ignore that advice - so it’ll be down in most places to the nurse administering the vaccine it seems (if they even know!)

Are people getting their jabs/boosters to keep themselves safe from Covid or to give them freedom to go the match/concerts etc....
If its for the latter at what point do you stop?
