Or to put it another way 'selfish morons'.

1.9 million Covid deaths in 2020 worldwide when there was no vaccines

5.4 million today 2021 that’s an increase of 3.5million in 12 months with a vaccine

Vaccines boss innit

It's really not. If someone whose life revolves around discovering and researching vaccines says so, "then" it's fair. Some random knobber off the internet saying it isn't fair at all. It's meaningless.
I think it's fair for younger, healthy people to question having to get a vaccination every 3 months.

I don't think it'll actually be the case though. I think they'll have them annually for all (like the flu jab) or bi-annually for some groups
 
Yeah but when do you draw the line and say they no longer need to? If not seriously ill? There will be a point where you stop it, otherwise it never ends.

Well you don't want people who are still infectious treating people.

That's why they've lowered it down to 7 day isolation with 2 negative lateral flow results (as LFs detect COVID when you have enough of a viral load to pass it on).
 
This has been an issue ever since the start of the pandemic in March 2020 though hasn’t it? The isolation rules have remained the same, in fact they’re more relaxed now than they were then because you can break the isolation period with a negative test after 7 days whereas you couldn’t before.
yeah they've brought it down in response to Omicron because Omicron is so much more transmissible.

50% of all colds in England actually being COVID shows just how transmissible it is.

Fortunately, because of a lot of factors it seems, Omicron is milder. Factors seem to include: the virus mutating into a milder strain (albeit the evidence suggests this is actually a very small part of it) and immunity in populations, through both natural immunity and vaccinations (and for a lot of people, both of those).

The good news is Omicron, like it did in SA, like it did in Denmark, has become the dominant strain here very fast. Though the bad news is there is still a fair lag on the delta patients who are needing hospital treatment too.

Omicron is literally a cold.

Good grief. Okay, perhaps look at the situation in the UK between the number of infected and the number of deaths in 2020 with no vaccine and 2021 with vaccines. Yes, vaccines are boss.

You've missed my point. Your opinion on this is irrelevant as, unless I'm mistaken, you have no training, education, or experience in this field. Why on earth would we give your opinion any credibility?

I am allowed to express an opinion on here and agree/disagree with somebody else though? I have no experience of playing professional football but I can still call Alex Iwobi crap.

I'm not going to go and tell anyone else not to get a vaccine. I just don't know if I'm comfortable with the thought of healthy (as in, no underlying conditions) adults below 'elderly' age being instructed they would have to get a booster vaccine every 3 months. It seems very strange and I think it's a fair concern to have. I also have the right - as everybody does - to decide what goes into my body. I'm getting my booster on Wednesday. I'll have had 3 jabs in 6 months, which is already a big cut down on what was initially recommended, and COVID in that time too. If - and we don't know yet which is what I've said in my other posts - they suddenly kept pushing another jab in another 3 months... well I'm not sure I'd be jumping at the bit.

But of course my opinion is irrelevant in the grand scheme of things but that's the case for everyone in this forum.

The data is there, if the vaccines weren’t gnats piss we wouldn’t have almost double the deaths globally with a vaccine roll out!
