There are currently (well as of 0800 yesterday) just under 2100 people in hospital with COVID in London, with just under 200 on ventilators. It is not "miniscule", and it is having a big effect on life down here.
The deluded here are the cretins who think that the answer to this, after all the massive problems that have been exposed by this virus (with all the unnecessary deaths, the lockdowns, the economic damage, the lives ruined) is to stick their heads in the sand and think that we can just go back to normal after it. How on earth is "what we need to do is charge people for tests" what you take away from these last two years?
If we do that - and unfortunately I think what the idiots chirp chimes a lot with what the government here want to do - then the damage that will be done when the next one of these hits is going to be even more unforgiveable. A lot of people have learned absolutely fk all from this disaster.

Show me one shred of scientific evidence that shows healthy under 30's need 3 jabs in the space of 6 months.
You cant do because the science disagrees with you.
But keep on rolling that sleeve up hopefully you dont suffer heart inflammation trying to stave off a sore throat from omricon...

Ok show us where the science disagrees? You are asking for evidence from other people but not providing any yourself
Show us the academic literature you’ve been reading.

Im asking evidence from the Covid fanatics that a healthy under 30 year old will be on deaths door without a booster jab.
Same way I would ask a Covid denier on the opposite end of the spectrum to show me evidence that an 85 year old with diabetes is fine without a vaccine providing she is taking her vitamins and saying her prayers.
I have no dog in this fight im not a fanatic or denier I look at the facts and the science not what Rupert Murdoch is telling me OR what a government that needs to focus on case numbers solely (for political posturing purposes) rather than on the actual death/hospital rates for certain age groups.

That's fine I'm not labelling you as this or that, but you said the science shows the under 30s don't need it. All I am asking for you is to show me the science? It shouldn't be too hard to back up your point.

Approving a small dose for children seems ridiculous to me. Why not a full dose? Sounds like an admittance that benefits don't outweigh the risks when vaccinating for that age group.
I'll be surprised if they get above 30% of primary school children vaccinated. Their indecisiveness will have done nothing for parent confidence.

The science is starting to point towards a 4th jab being required. We ideally need to get through everyone asap as the 4th jab roll out will need to start in April/May.
The most important current issue for me is finding a way to get the 4 doses into the anti vaxxer arms by next winter to prevent further issues.
JCVI issues new vaccination advice for children and young people
Vaccinations are to be offered to 5 to 11 year olds who are at higher risk from coronavirus (COVID-19).
You'll perhaps note that his (Professor Wei Shen Lim) speciality is in community-acquired infections. "Maybe" he knows more than you and I. He certainly knows more than me, so if he says this is a good thing, I'm not going to start wheeling out random weirdos from YouTube who say my head will fall off or it'll cause ghosts to start feeling me up in my sleep.
That sucks.Nothing like testing positive on Christmas Eve… someone pass me a brandy
Hope you have a swift recovery and are asymptomatic.
It's mental. I was at the dentist this morning. Imagine if he suggested I have a filling and I said "yeah, hang on doc, let me get a second opinion off of Janice off Facebook...", or he's doing root canal work while I'm back seat driving with a Learn How To Do Root Canal In 5 Minutes video up on my phone. He'd think I was a bloody idiot.
Speaking of which, I mean we heard it first hand from one of our own (@Number_25 ), but just in case

With everyone else on their 7th. And we'll still be talking about lockdowns and blaming those with 4 jabs
