It is perfectly understandable that some folk are wary of rushing to take up the offer of a brand new vaccine. There are lots of unanswered questions such as what might the long term side effects be?
Having said that, it's difficult to see how else we're going to beat this virus quickly. Without mass vaccinations, it could be even be around permantly, in much the same way as influenza and the common cold.
I was a smoker until some 30 years ago. I think that probably posed a greater risk to my health than a vaccine consisting of a modified genetic molecule which has been shown to stimulate our immune system.

The only reason the U.K. are doing this first is because they are worried about supply chain/Logistics come Jan 1st.
Gavin Williamson’s comment that we are getting this first is “ Because we are a much better country” is utterly astounding but then again maybe not coming from him the same guy when defence secretary- yes an ex fireplace salesman - told Putin to “ Just go away “ .What a tool he is, mind you he is in good company with the rest of them.

Pfizer have re-iterated that they expect no disruption to the rollout of their vaccine to the UK after Brexit.
Supplier says no disruption expected. Customer says no disruption expected.
.net experts ignore that and refuse a vaccine but in the same sentence say they're not anti-vaxxers.

This from Aunty :-
Prof Jonathan Van-Tam
He expects US and European regulators to approve the Pfizer vaccine in "not very many days"
The logistics of the vaccine means that it`s "not viable" to take it into individual homes if people are housebound
He`s "hopeful" the Oxford University vaccine will be approved before Christmas, although that decision is in the hands of the UK`s regulators
For people with allergies concerned about getting the vaccine, he says the ingredients will be made available as soon as they get them from the manufacturer
On hugs, he says the vaccine may not give everyone "complete protection" so social distancing rules should still be followed
The government may look at a jobs-based priority list once the care home/age/clinical need priority list has been worked through
On vaccine certificates, he says there are “definite plans” to make sure we know who`s had the vaccine, but could not give a firm answer on certificates
The vaccine should not be given to pregnant women because there`s no data on its effect yet
The vaccine should give protection for "quite a few months as an absolute minimum - and it could be longer"
And Father Christmas will be front of the queue to get the vaccine (He`s been made a special case by the JCVI)

I don`t think `flu vaccination s required at present; merely recommended for older citizens? I`m not aware of any need to carry a `flu certificate either. If the Pfizer vaccination is purely voluntary and not used as a means of deciding who can or cannot socially interact then there should be no problem.
If it used to divide citizens into two distinct groups then it will do more harm than good.

But maybe the word `required` is in the air and is what troubles the likes of Danderpar, Ratapari and myself. I can appreciate that vaccination may be required for certain occupations- I think my daughter requires one to work as a midwife- and certain countries require evidence of inoculation or being HIV-free before you can enter.
However that is very different from being asked to show a Covid certificate before being allowed entry to a public building or public bar.

Tobias Ellwood, MP, was not on Facebook but speaking in the House of Commons earlier this week. He advocated compulsory vaccination to be carried out by the armed forces across Britain. He also suggested a two tier form of citizenship, with those not being vaccinated subject to restricted social interaction.
He’s clearly been told to shut up since then but whether that is because, as a Tory, he is understandably excited at the idea of the army patrolling the streets or because he has let the cat out of the bag is not clear.

Think everyone should have reservations over this vaccine regardless if it’s been approved or not by the necessary authorities given how quickly it’s went through and UK is the first to do it.
Problem with Politicians is they spout so much tosh throughout terms and refuse to answer simple questions with honesty, the moment something serious like this comes about there is just very little trust.
We’re essentially acting as the pilot, should be offered to an initial set of volunteers again who are willing to take the risk that one adopts with any newly introduced vaccine before rolling it out to the high risk, which should clearly be the first tranche.
I for one and my family certainly won’t be rushing to get in line for it, mainly because we don’t consider ourselves high risk, whilst we may have had it, we’ve never showed any symptoms so wouldn’t know and by all other means healthy.
To Rasta’s point as well, selfishly we’d like to see what effect it does have (if any) on those that are first adopters.

I understand the apprehension around taking vaccinations (don't mistake that for understanding Bill Gates and nanobots nonsense!) but I have a couple of questions for anyone in that boat.
There are some comments about the UK rushing it through but if others follow suit, such as the FDA, and the EU regulator, does that increase confidence levels?
Secondly, there's also a lot of chat around vaccines not having gone through the usual level of testing (eg, 10yrs worth etc) but Covid19 is also a new disease and no one can know what the potential long term effects are for people who survive but have so called 'Long Covid'. On that basis, is it not just the flip of a coin on what could be worse, unknown long term effects from vaccines that have supposedly not gone through rigorous enough testing, or unknown long term effects from a disease that's only been around for a year?

Coronaviruses aren't new but this is the newest variant.
My point on this one is, it's not been around long enough for anyone to know whether suffers of 'long covid' are going to suffer the effects permanently or not.
On the one hand, some people don't want to take a vaccine because they don't know enough about potential long term effects but on the other hand, are willing to take their chances with a new variant of a virus where we also don't know the potential long term effects.

The UK were the first to approve the vaccine, I would want to know what the dialogue has been with other countries who are also testing these vaccines and understand where they are and why they haven’t approved it yet themselves.
It would be good to know how the UK have beaten everyone, genuine question - I’m sure it’s been answered and I’ve probably missed it.
It’s a new strand of virus, that still we don’t fully understand yet we’ve managed to race through an approved vaccine and we should all be very happy, pleased and jumping at the bit to get it.
And look, I’m sure it will work, certainly hope it does, it will do as it was approved for without a doubt of reservation?
I personally would just like to see more testing, more evidence and more assurance and see other countries proceed with approving as well before i would consider taking it, not that I would have any case for getting it anytime soon anyway.
Make no apologies for putting my ‘precious wee family’ first da_no1, I would expect everyone to do that and for many families the best thing for them will be to take this vaccine as soon as it comes out and all the best to them.
For us though, fortunately we’re not in that position.
CAPar raises a good point, if you don’t understand the long term implications of the virus, then how confident can we be that we’ve developed a robust vaccine?
And vice versa ofcourse, I get the predicament.

The American and European agencies should say within days whether they approve the vaccine or not ie before the first doses are administered in the UK.
The acceleration in approval seems to be a result of prioritisation and better funding made available because of the urgent need for a vaccine rather than any cutting of corners.

The uk has beaten everyone as the government has been bought by bill gates so we are the guinea pigs . It’s certainly a new strand of virus that has spread throughout the western world to destroy the economy and try and destroy trump in his election year . Which would then allow China to take over as no 1 superpower. Great reset also brought in under the disguise of the virus. Watch America 🇺🇸🎺

Berry, that was an unintended point really. If the vaccine stops you becoming infected, then surely from that perspective, you wouldn't really need to know long term implications of the virus because you couldn't get it.
My intended point is, if you're concerned about long term implications of a vaccine due to lack of time to test properly, why wouldn't you therefore be concerned about a (variant of a) virus that's not been around long enough to know the potential long term implications of getting it?

Pfizer have, according to the Independent, been granted immunity by the UK government in respect of legal redress.
‘’It also has the effect of granting civil immunity to Pfizer after the government changed the regulations following a short three-week consultation in September.
In a press conference with journalists on Wednesday, Ben Osborn, Pfizer’s UK managing director, refused to explain why the company needed an indemnity.
He said: “We`re not actually disclosing any of the details around any of the aspects of that agreement and specifically around the liability clauses."

The Freedom of Information Act requires all public authorities to actively publish any Freedom of Information requests.
This will almost always appear on that public bodies website.
Since there is absolutely no evidence of this online I really doubt it exists.

So I did and found nothing.
Rather than say it wasn't true I simply asked for a source, any source.
You then called me a weapon and a pr*k and said it was a paper copy.
Some research found that all Freedom of Information requests to public bodies must be legally published.
I then found when they get published and guess what? Absolutely no sign of the FOI you claim.

I think it's fair enough to be nervous about taking any new vaccine, especially if you're not likely to be at risk if you get Covid. We obviously can't be certain of the long-term effects.
If you're likely to get seriously unwell from the virus, I think you'd probably weigh it up and figure that it's better to take the vaccine than not. Yes, it's been rushed through in that it's taken 7 months whereas these things usually take years, but that argument ignores the fact that it's been an unprecedented 7 months where truckloads of cash and man/woman hours have been dedicated specifically for this project.
You probably have vaccine research that has taken years but hasn't had nearly as many hours of study dedicated to it.
I do realise that's ridiculously balanced, but at least both sides can call me a weapon.

I guess you bother if you are worried that, due to your age, health, build etc. that you would be particularly likely to get seriously unwell if you get Covid.
If it turns out that the vaccines are effective when it comes to preventing transmission from one person to another then, I guess, the argument evolves to one where we should all take it - to prevent it transmitting from one person to another.

A couple of NHS staff have reacted. I would suggest that considering the number of allergies going about its probably impossible to test for them all even in a mass test. After all they have also advised pregnant women not to have the vaccine as they couldn't test it.

I like Jason Leitch, he has had a difficult job, but manages to get his message across well. I'm still not getting the vaccine right enough
I’m the opposite - I cannot stand the man but will get the vaccine when available to me

7.8 billion people on the planet. I'd imagine the odds of vaccinating every single one of us with not one bad reaction are a tad on the small side.

What a load of scaremongering. My wife is allergic to penicillin, does that mean the rest of us should avoid it?Millions,would have died,without it.There is always a risk with any vaccine.It is actually safer than the flu vaccine.Anyone,who refuses to get the vaccine, are just being bloody minded.,and putting the rest of us at risk.

I think the point might be, the UK was in such a rush to roll this out in a red white and blue parade, they haven't properly educated the public as to possible side effects to allergies and what exactly they are.
Maybe that's why other countries haven't introduced the vaccine yet.
They are sitting back while the UK is happy as the proverbial guenea pig.

Leitch`s qualifications are enough to make make me, if not Rastapari, suspicious. Too many letters after his name for my good. I`ll stick to my own dentist.
It`s becoming clear that this Covid vaccine is taking on the same arguments as enlisting for army service in 1914. Back then, despite what we have been encouraged to believe, 30% of the working people tried to avoid being enlisted of which only 2% were conscientious objectors. The rest were working class people who had no desire to fight in a capitalist war.
At a later point, with casualties so high, it became necessary to conscript. The self appointed leaders of the proletariat, Labour and Liberal, let them down across all of Europe. The Tories were at least honest pretty honest in their calls for cannon fodder. I wouldn`t be surprised to see a Kitchener type portrait appear before our eyes before long, saying `Your Country Needs You.`

Please provide evidence where it has been said it won't curb spread of transmission.
You really need to educate yourself on how the immune system works and how vaccines work with that.
I will give you a little clue.
Most of the time someone who has received a vaccine will be immune. If they come into contact they will not get the disease at all.
Some will get the disease but since the body has encountered it before has the blueprint for fighting it of. This will happen relatively quickly compared to someone who has not been vaccinated or previously had the disease. They may develop symptoms and may is some cases even be able to pass it on.
That does not in any way equate to the utter rubbish you are coming out with.
This is basic high school biology ffs.
I'm sure it's slightly more complicated than this but that's the just of whats going on.

You've as much chance of a reaction to the vaccine as you do of choking on an apple. We don't say noone can have apples!
The vaccine gives you the ability to fight coronavirus. Exactly the same as the flu vaccine has done for years. It doesn't mean you won't get it. You'll just have far milder symptoms if any at all.
The reason there won't be normality immediately is that it's going to take a year to get the majority vaccinated.

The reason that a healthy person should get it Rasta is that there are hundreds of thousands of people who for medical reasons can`t get any type of vaccine. If enough of the population gets the vaccine then herd immunity will protect them.
So what reason would a socially responsible, considerate person have for not getting vaccinated?

So what reason would a socially responsible, considerate person have for not getting vaccinated?
Could be a clue in the study, titled “Looking Under the Tinfoil Hat” and posted online in the Journal of Personality, Ms. Bowes and Scott Lilienfeld led a team that administered a battery of standardized personality surveys to nearly 2,000 adults.
“the research team gave the participants several standard personality questionnaires. One parsed general, fairly stable traits, like conscientiousness and sociability; another asked about moods like anxiety and anger; and a third addressed extremes, like narcissistic tendencies. (“I often have to deal with people who are less important than me.”)
To rough out a personality profile, or profiles, the research team measured which facets of personality were most strongly correlated to higher levels of susceptibility to conspiracy beliefs. The findings were at least as notable for the associations revealed as for those not found. For example, qualities like conscientiousness, modesty and altruism were very weakly related to a person’s susceptibility. Levels of anger or sincerity bore no apparent relation; nor did self-esteem.
The personality features that were solidly linked to conspiracy beliefs included some usual suspects: entitlement, self-centered impulsivity, cold-heartedness (the confident injustice collector), elevated levels of depressive moods and anxiousness (the moody figure, confined by age or circumstance). Another one emerged from the questionnaire that aimed to assess personality disorders — a pattern of thinking called “psychoticism.”
Psychoticism is a core feature of so-called schizo-typal personality disorder, characterized in part by “odd beliefs and magical thinking” and “paranoid ideation.” In the language of psychiatry, it is a milder form of full-blown psychosis, the recurrent delusional state that characterizes schizophrenia. It’s a pattern of magical thinking that goes well beyond garden variety superstition and usually comes across socially as disjointed, uncanny or “off.””

I am not an anti-vaxxer but my worry about this vaccine is that it has not been tested for long term side affects. Most vaccines are not released to the public for 10+ years and this one has barely taken a year. I`m not overly worried about myself but my kids for the long term.

Unbelievably I had a look there and found an expert has commented on the long term side affects.
`Professor Phelps said this is `tricky` to answer because the vaccine hasn`t been around for `very long`.
`It`s been in clinical trials, and so we don`t know what the long term side effects are,` she said.
`We can`t know until the vaccine has been out there in the population for longer.
`We do know that the short term effects look a lot like a lot of other vaccines such as the flu vaccine.`
I`d like to think this will be an amazing breakthrough but the chances of this virus killing someone under 60 is ridiculously low. Is it really worth getting the vaccine if you don`t come under the vulnerable listing? By the looks of it though, we won`t have a choice.

If a treatment has been developed that predictably alters everybody's genetic makeup then that's huge news. I had heard that CRISPR was going to bring in new treatment vectors but the existance of an off the peg gene therapy treatment would make such a difference in our understanding of how genetics works that we would have to reevaluate what we think we know.

Adenovirus type vectored vaccines have been known for a number of years to increase the chance of hiv infection, especially among men who engage in what are known to be high risk of transmission acts. At leady according to the Lancet which I know you read regularly.

Perhaps someone more knowledgeable in this field can tell me what kind of vaccine the ones that will be used in the UK are.

It’s also not hard to grasp that regardless of the pile of money thrown at it and the amount of resources on it, operating at such a fast pace leads to errors.

The Pfizer vaccine is not the ad5 type.
Pfizer is modRNA type vaccine.
The Chinese company CanSino has this type.
The Oxford vaccine is from modified chimpanzee vector which is adenovirus but not the type ad5 mentioned in the Lancet I don't really understand the difference.
So the UK approved vaccine by Pfizer does not have this increase risk of contracting HIV
If it turns out the Oxford vaccine does and it is approved them I imagine they will not give this to the specific group who are identified in the Lancet report as being at more risk.
The group identified of being at risk is uncircumcised homosexual men who indulge in unprotected anal sex.
This particular group would be better getting the Pfizer vaccine.
For someone who accuses others of scaremongering over Covid to use this increase risk of HIV in this particular group to then scaremonger about the Pfizer vaccine which is not even the type of vaccine that is effected by this is absolutely appalling.

Looks like Dander Par will be throwing women and children behind him as he rushes to get the vaccine following his hero’s glowing endorsement of the vaccine by video;
https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/1337586206683574272?s=21
“President Trump touted the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) approval of a COVID-19 vaccine from Pfizer and BioNTech on Friday, calling it "really good news" for the country.
"Today our nation has achieved a medical miracle. We have delivered a safe and effective vaccine in just nine months. It is one of the greatest scientific accomplishments in history. It will save millions of lives and soon end the pandemic once and for all," Trump said in a video posted to Twitter.
"On behalf of the American people, I'd like to thank all of the brilliant scientists, technicians, doctors and workers who made this all possible," he added.”

I never mentioned flu deaths. The government had a way of counting covid deaths and ours were the worst in Europe. They changed the way they counted them and that resulted in the reported figure going down.
The same number of people were still dead of course, and a lot more than usual, but the government went out of their way to report a lower figure while you think they're trying to inflate the figure.
Flu, I think, is a bad example. Having multiple illnesses will reduce your chance of survival and both would play a part in your demise.
If, on the other hand, you test positive and remain perfectly healthy but get eaten by sharks 27 days later would you be counted as covid?

It actually would count. The Scottish Government released stats on how many of the "deaths within 28 days of a positive test are directly attributed to covid."
The figure was 93%.
Obviously there will be people who die of it that don't get tested as well.
I agree that the best measure we have is the excess deaths number and that is way way higher than the official number of covid deaths.

Re sharks - no it would not be counted as Covid no matter how many times people claim it does
“The World Health Organization (WHO) recognises this complexity and states that:
A COVID-19 death is defined for surveillance purposes as a death resulting from a clinically compatible illness in a probable or confirmed COVID-19 case, unless there is a clear alternative cause of death that cannot be related to COVID-19 disease (e.g. trauma).”
Also there are more than one indicator used;
Two deaths indicators are used by all four nations in the UK to provide a full picture of both recent trends and the longer-term burden of the disease.
The indicators used to calculate daily death figures are:
the number of deaths in people with COVID-19 that occur within 28 days of a first positive laboratory-confirmed test. This is intended to provide a headline indicator of the immediate impact of recent epidemic activity. Deaths that occur more than 28 days after a positive test will not be included in this count.
the number of deaths that occur within 60 days of a first positive test. Deaths that occur after 60 days will also be added to this figure if COVID-19 appears on the death certificate. This will provide a more complete measure of the burden of the disease over time.

I'm pretty sure there isn't a Texas Supreme court. Maybe I'm wrong.
The supreme court have rejected the Texan lawsuit.
The lawsuit, filed this week by the state of Texas, sought to invalidate results in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
But in a brief order rejecting the bid, the Supreme Court ruled on Friday that Texas did not have legal standing to bring the case.

It's how scientists express themselves when there isn't absolute certainty. When my pupils carried out an experiment, they would sometimes inform me that nothing happened and should they write "No reaction" in their write up. I would tell them to write "No visible reaction" and ask them to explain the difference.
On a different tack, today sees the start of vaccinations in Scotland's care homes. Given that some residents suffer from varying degrees of dementia and may be unable to decide for themselves, who decides whether they are vaccinated or not?

It is all about statistical confidence. Scientists will state a 95% confidence performance (or maybe higher if needed). In science there is never a “sure thing”. It is down to probability. In the case of this vaccine it is only ever based upon the “population” of the sample. (Population in this case is the number, not people). The population in the test is relatively limited in comparison to ALL the population. So if it was tested in 90K people then against the population of 7 billion people the subset is rather small. Therefore scientists look at the sample and lower their confidence levels as the subset is small.
So if you want a definite answer from a scientist then you will get your Boolean answer of NO!. That is the politicians and management decision. They will state it with these provisos to protect themselves. I expect it is somewhere in the small print.

This was decided by an ethics committee not him. He also said he can't wait for his mother to get it.
If it's dodgy as you claim why would he give it to his own family?
Also if he did get it to show it was safe idiots like you would then claim it wasn't the real thing he got so there is no point doing it to create public confidence is there?

Nicotine is what keeps you addicted. Probably doesn't cause cancers. It's the tar and other ingredients in cigarettes that cause the illnesses. The nicotine just keeps you addicted. It probably still isn't particularly good for you.
I understand there have been several concerns raised about vaping. It can't be that good for you to inhale water droplets into your lungs.

Pfizer boss allegedly not had the vaccine because he doesn't want to jump the queue...what a gent.
This was decided by an ethics committee not him. He also said he can't wait for his mother to get it.
If it's dodgy as you claim why would he give it to his own family?
Also if he did get it to show it was safe idiots like you would then claim it wasn't the real thing he got so there is no point doing it to create public confidence is there?
The same ethics committee that led to Pfizer being fined billions for harming kids?
Yeah, quite the beacon of integrity.

Several people I know have now had the first vaccine as they work in the NHS. All of them are absolutely fine. No adverse reactions so far. Most of them are now on day 3 to 5.

It's understandable to be nervous about vaccinations, but please don't feed people unproven stories about the vaccine. It's fine to have an opinion, but please back it with facts (this applies on both sides).
It's amazing that despite all the published research, people still believe daft stories like that schools are breeding grounds for COVID. Michaela on Facebook, who refuses to wear a mask as it's against her human rights, and just spent the afternoon fighting her way through Primark to get a set of sequined unicorn pyjamas, calling for the schools to be closed because her pal Margaret told her that her pals, pals niece has had to isolate as a friend "got the COVID".

Whilst I agree with Rasta that this can't go on forever, it won't. Things will be much easier once the vulnerable are vaccinated. Right now all it would take would be for a member of the care staff to be exposed to someone infected in the community to take out half a care home. Same applies to visits. You may be feeling fine but be infectious. You go and see a parent or grandparent and suddenly they're on a ventilator. I realise this is the extreme, but people don't want to risk it.
For those comparing it to the flu - older and vulnerable people have been immunised against flu for years.
The good news is that we're not far off being able to immunise in care homes. Staff are being immunised right now but I'd imagine residents will receive the Moderna or Astra Zenica vaccine due to how the Pfizer one is stored.

The vaccine is meant to really take effect a few weeks after the second dose.
You can still catch COVID after taking the vaccine however and advice remains to be social distancing and face coverings as you’d expect.
This is going to go on for a long time yet, wouldn’t be surprised if we’re still stuck in our houses this time next year.

My younger daughter is an NHS worker in Fife and is required to start a vaccination programme this week. Her first dose will be Pfizer but the second one, in a fortnight, is to be the grandly named Sputnik vaccine which was being snootily dismissed by the UK media a mere month ago. I assume Sputnik is easier to store thus a cheaper option, and I have noticed the anti-Putin rhetoric being dialled down in The Guardian the last two weeks.
Claims of 95% success rates with these vaccines is mighty impressive but hard to believe. Within the last 20 years the USA has recorded an average 40% success rate with its annual ‘flu vaccine which has to try and anticipate any likely mutations; some years the scientists are better able to do this than others. Those developing the Covid vaccine will surely face the same problem.

Jason Leitch responded to a question about testing large swathes of the population (Boris Johnson`s moonshot plan) and said the antigen test would be a bit rubbish when being used on large numbers for those not displaying symtoms.
He clarified his statement later on;
"That test doesn`t exist. It`s fiction. One day that test may well exist and it`s an excellent concept. So I said the present test for that purpose is rubbish and that`s what was reported. Of course the present test isn`t rubbish. Do you think we would be using it for six months if it didn`t work?"

All I asked was whether there was anything further to that as it was 3 months old
"Quote from Friday 11th September 2020. Anything more up to date?"
I know I can be a d1ck sometimes, but how does my reply above justify anything other than a straightforward reply?
Your latest "reply" - "You really will accept anything this shower throw at you eh."
As for the casual references to mental illness, what do you mean by that? Are you referring to the time I said someone was "aff their heed"?
Not that it matters a fk but I`m running 50 miles in January to raise money for MIND.

I think most of us would agree that the answer is somewhere in between
A/ a complete lockdown where you can`t leave the house and tough luck on anyone with mental health issues or who lives alone and;
B/ Go about our daily business as usual, keep everything open and encourage people to wear masks, avoid each other`s space and wash/sanitise hands.
It`s clearly a very difficult balancing act - as evidenced by the fact that virtually no country seems to have got it absolutely right.
No amount of sniping back and forth is going to change that. Anyone taking their own life as they can`t see any other option is an absolute tragedy. Similarly, anyone losing their life to Covid, especially now, when a vaccine has started to roll out, is also a tragedy. Anyone who has to make the decisions as to how best to cater for everyone has my sympathy and best wishes in equal measure.
I don`t have an issue with the conspiracy theorists per se. It tends to be the tone taken that I do have an issue with. Somehow, if you`re adhering to the rules, you are some sort of sheep, unable to think for yourself. I think it`s disrespectful to those of us who know people who have died from Covid or those of us who know people in the front line of the NHS who are actually working with Covid patients and see how awful it is if it is caught by someone who`s body really struggles to fight it.

I don`t really know about that one. I think it is likely to be just as safe as giving two doses of the same vaccine, and the worst case scenario will be that the second dose doesn`t really offer any additional protection.
As long as doing this doesn`t deprive anyone else of a vaccine then it could be a good idea. It might also help to reduce waste by using vaccines instead of throwing them away at the end of the day.

There's a suggestion that just the one dose probably gives sufficient protection. The roll out for this winter (current) is going to be messy. Should be better organised for next year when I would expect it'll be primarily for vulnerable people as it is for flu.

Don’t care just want to get it. As has already been pointed out it was announced days ago vaccines won’t be mixed in Scotland.
An observation though, complaining about lockdown while simultaneously scratching around for ways to undermine the roll out of the vaccine seems very counterintuitive.
Like it or not, agree or don’t it is very clear that vaccine deployment is the only way that restrictions are going to be eased in the long run so by all means decline yourself (and rely on others to provide the herd immunity that will in turn likely protect you) but don’t decry others for doing what they think is right for getting through this thing.

I'm not decrying anything, I'm saying go for it, please do in fact.
And for the avoidance of doubt I didn't read about mixing and matching vaccines from Sharon or Karen on facebook, the British Medical Journal has comment on it , was just wondering how you all felt about following the science...that isn't really being followed, that's all.

You've missed my point, Rasta.
Firstly, they are not mixing vaccines in Scotland.
Secondly, there is no evidence on whether or not mixing doses would work. It might work, it might not. However, I would trust medical professionals to make this call rather than the idiots on Facebook who do more harm than good with their fish wives tales. I wasn't suggesting you specifically follow people of Facebook. I was suggesting that me, personally, will listen to the professionals rather than Joe Bloggs. And that works for if the professionals highlight something that goes against what the government advise.
It's worth noting that on things such as the delay in the second dose, medical professionals didn't say this wouldn't work. They said they couldn't guarantee it as they hadn't tested it. Obviously they can't test the efficacy after 3 months because they have barely had the vaccine for 3 months! What they do advise is that a single dose offers 70 to 90% protection. So the reality is that it may transpire that one dose is enough or that at a single dose needs adapted to give better protection. I've no idea. I'm not a medical professional.
What's incredibly concerning is the amount of gibberish being shared on social media and reported in the media. The media has a clever trick of having a sensationalist headline and then explaining the reality in the story. The problem is that people see a headline like "Vaccine shortages" and that's all people read. They miss the bit where a government advisor states there are no shortages.
If we go back on the topic of mental health - my father in law is someone who has to shield due to age and underlying health conditions. Yesterday my mother-in-law was on the phone sounding royally fed up as he was miserable saying his life was over, may as well end it now, not enough vaccine, he'd be way down the list etc. This is the impact of reading the utter drivel shared on social media and the media in general. Yes, the likes of the Lancet and BMJ exist, but they are written for professionals. The average reading age in the UK is around 9 years of professional education (so 13/14). The majority of people will not be able to fully understand medical research pieces.

The BMJ article seems fairly reasonable.
It looks like they are fine with mixing the vaccines but it shouldn`t be the standard of care and should only be used when the same vaccine isn`t available.
It is important to note that a lack of evidence of efficacy is very different from evidence of a lack of efficacy. The main reason that they don`t have evidence is because they haven`t looked for it yet.
The way I look at it, if they don`t have the correct 2nd dose vaccine to give to someone then they have three choices. Don`t vaccinate them, give them another vaccine, or postpone the vaccination. The second option doesn`t look any worse than the other two to me.

Most of the vaccines will be administered by nurses. As the mixing of vaccines has not been tested and approved by clinical trials, any nurse administering a mix will be putting their NMC registration at risk and opening themselves to being struck off if any problems arise. Currently it is a hot topic of conversation and many will refuse to administer the second dosage of vaccine if it does not match the original type given.

Deaths within 28 days of taking the vaccine rising.
Can you provide any evidence whatsoever to show that people who have received the vaccine are dying due to receiving the vaccine?
You have really read/got my post have you.
We count ANY death within 28 days of a covid test as covid.
Apply the same rules to the vaccine and it's not so safe looking is it? Numbers somewhat skewed eh.
However in saying that, more reports of deaths within a few days of getting the vaccine but hey it's ok because to be expected.
Maybe not relish if opportunity to have a go so much, you're desperate.

Given there are 80,000 deaths in the UK from people diagnosed with Covid in the previous 4 weeks, it's clearly true that some of those people would have died whether they caught it or not.
That doesn't necessarily equate to the fact that it's not particularly serious or that the hospitals aren't bursting at the seams in places.

There's issues with that figure too though.
The only fair comparison would be a hypothetical where one country locked down and the other did not - and then look at the differential. The problem being that no two countries, or their people, are identical.
I think most of us feel that the lockdowns are in some way effective when it comes to reducing transmission and subsequent death. It is kicking the can down the road, but that's the whole point, which will hopefully be vindicated with the roll out of the vaccines.

It is a choice; get the vaccine or curtail your activities to minimise risk until Covid is under control (if indeed that is how it will be used since I have not seen anything detailing what it will be used for).
Immunity passports have been around since the plague (wiki has an Italian one from 1722) it’s a modern entitlement attitude that it’s a choice not to have the vaccine but still expect the benefits that those vaccinated receive.
In more positive news England to move to 24/7 vaccinations as soon as possible. Hopefully Scotland follows suit.

The UK is wary of making such things compulsory. More likely immunity passports will become necessary to access public life, which stops short of absolute compulsion. It would be like requiring an MOT certificate to make sure your car was roadworthy, although there is of course no requirement to own a car or drive one on a public highway.
Not that an MOT guarantees absolute truth of roadworthiness and can, I was once told, only be challenged legally for the day it was issued. You also have to cough up money every year to have an MOT renewed which is a nice earner for some garages. In 1960 when MOTs were introduced the test was quite basic and only cost £17 in today’s money. Covid Immunity Certificates, if introduced, would very likely follow a similar route, with the range of vaccines required by a citizen to prove good health increasing over the years.

The vaccine doesn't stop transmission, doesn't stop you getting the virus, doesn't negate social distancing or the need for a mask, in fact going by the news it doesn't change much at all.
So with that in mind, from our own beloved scientists, why would a healthy person under no threat from covid risk any sort of adverse reaction?
And just what is it 95% effective in doing?
We know it's 100% effective in making money but going by the UK media and government scientists I'm just not hearing many benefits?

Yep you`ll still need to socially distance and wear a mask where and when appropriate once the vaccine has been delivered as it doesn`t kick in immediately. It takes several weeks for it to be effective. By effective it means quite often in lessening the severity of the symptoms and while few vaccines can completely stop transmission trials of the covid vaccines suggest they do reduce the ability of the virus to travel between humans.
A far better explanation of it all here
https://www.sciencenews.org/article/covid-19-coronavirus-vaccines-questions-social-distance-mask-transmission
As for a healthy person getting the jab who has little to fear from a harmful case of covid (other than life having a habit of punishing such hubris) is that healthy people getting the vaccine means that those who can`t get it due to medical reasons (repressed imuune systems due to cancer treatments, transplant patients, etc) have less chance of catching it from others.

Rasta, low risk people may NOT be vaccinated. The judgement on that will be made based on science and data. The priority just now is vaccinating those most vulnerable. So, as I've mentioned on here before, most people on this forum are likely at the bottom of the pile in terms of receiving it.
You could compare this to the flu vaccination programme. Older people and people with conditions like asthma and diabetes are more at risk so get this annually. The rest of us get it if we want to give Lloyds a tenner.
There's a lot of talk about travel rules but, to my knowledge, no country has set long term plans to say someone needs evidence of vaccination to enter a country.

I think I`m now at the point where I`m giving up with you. You have previously listed the friends & relatives you know that are/have unfortunately suffering/suffered from depression & cancer amongst other horrible conditions but no-one you know has caught or is currently ill with Covid?
I hope & pray that this remains the case.
It looks like there is no reasoning with you. You won`t take the vaccine for whatever reasons (most of them internet based), so I suppose you will take the risk that you could catch Covid but it won`t harm you or you friends & family too seriously. That`s fair enough. What I really don`t care for is you trying to persuade others to follow your lead. Attitudes like yours will help to ensure we are stuck with this fkn virus & lockdowns forever.
So on behalf of everyone who wants to get back to some sort of normality, I thank you.
You are exactly right, not seen anyone come to harm from covid, that's a fact.
Oh so you're blaming me for your lockdown yeah?
How very weak of you, how about you take responsibility for yourself, you think I'm not locked down or following the rules?
I'm just asking what the benefits to me are of taking the vaccine.

Here’s some info on the dangers of the vaccine based on what is known in US.
Seems the vaccine in much more dangerous than the flu vaccine but less dangerous than eating food
https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/2021/01/what-data-show-allergic-reactions-covid-vaccines-cvd/
I don’t get Rastas motivations really as clearly distressed about personal experiences of tragic collateral damage caused by the Covid circus but while the vaccine is clearly the only way out he still looks to undermine it at every turn despite this being the route to reducing the chances of the same thing happening in the future 🤷🏻♂️.
By all means don’t get it but surely there are more pertinent questions to be asked like what are the actual planned roll out dates by grouping (and contingency planning), what needs to be seen to happen in response to the vaccine and then what is the plan for getting us out of restrictions, why do they seem to be looking at vaccination centre options now, surely they knew vaccine was coming and had scenario planned roll out options.
We should have evidence that the Gov are not making it all up on the hoof, they could caveat everything to the hilt but there is a refusal to treat us like adults.
It’s a massive project, there has to be a plan, there has to be expected results and there has to be expected benefits and these must all be tracked somewhere.

P my motivation is looking after my own health and those around me, I have in fact in this thread encouraged those who want the vaccine to go get it.
So we're already being told that taking the vaccine and risking, albeit minimall, adverse reactions, I simply ask why take that risk when the risk of covid on my generally healthy body is equally if not more so minimal?
And this looking to blame anyone that questions, really, what about all those choosing to get on a plane with 2 or hundred other people, selfish, no?

Sorry don’t understand the plane reference so I’ve probably misunderstood
However answer to your comment on why would a healthy person take it the answer would be it would train their immune systems to fight the virus so they don't become sick. Young healthy people do have serious illness through Covid so not getting sick sounds a good thing.

If you are healthy with a good immune system that will suffice, I've looked after myself for that reason, a healthy immune system does not need "trained". In fact a young healthy person can be immune or trained by going through the virus.
The plane reference is simple, who is more selfish, someone who is simply questioning the vaccine but following the rules....or someone getting on a plane with 300 other folks for a wee break in the sun?

I don’t know anyone flying off to the Sun so you’re on your own there and your assertion that young people need not care is simply wrong
“Even though all-cause mortality due to COVID-19 may not be known for a while, two new studies highlight that 173,300 (79.5%) of excess deaths from March through August were COVID related, with 4,535 deaths occurring from March through July in younger adults ages 25 to 44, or 38% of all excess deaths in that group.
Data from the latter study helped inspire a New York Times editorial yesterday by the likely next director of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and her colleagues, who tried to dispel the myth that the disease is not deadly in younger adults.
The first study, published in the Annals of Internal Medicine, found that almost 220,000 excess deaths occurred between March and August, even after adjusting for a growing and aging US population. The second study, a JAMA research letter, reported that COVID-related deaths in young adults exceeded opioid overdoses, a leading cause of death in this age-group, in 20% of US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) regions during the first half of the pandemic”

Sit down.
But why even bother about it. If you look hard enough you will find real cases where people get ill effects after taking the vaccine. We didn't know my sister was allergic to penicillin till she was given some in the mid 70s and was hospitalised. The reality is that it does far far more good than harm to the vast majority.
By the way don't kid yourself about being healthy being enough to protect you from the effects of the virus. My 14 year old football player laddie is fit as a fiddle and suffered from it much more than I did.
And please, try not to be so condescending in your responses. It does you no favours.

A young healthy immune system is not going to help you if you catch covid. My wife and my daughter caught it. My wife would say that she is not that fit whereas my daughter is young fit and healthy. My wife suffered more symptoms than my daughter and was sicker whilst ill. My daughter's symptoms were less but have lasted much longer and she still gets breathless two weeks later.
Strangely I have not caught it although, because of previous illnesses, I have a reduced immune system and a couple of underlieing health issues
So I can't agree that having a good immune system and being healthy is going to prevent you getting covid. I submit that you are just lucky or have not come into contact with covid people which makes you doubly lucky.

Don't want to pi55 on your fireworks here but having an underdeveloped immune system is possibly why younger people are less effected.
Coronavirus is one of the diseases where a healthy immune system can go into overdrive and end up killing the victim. It's known as a Cytokine storm.
Hopefully if you got it you would be OK but having a healthy immune system does not make that a certainty.

They are in the process of seeing how they can alter the contracts of their existing 350 staff. I would imagine many other firms will follow suit.
Looks like people may be left with the choice not to have the vaccine, but if they don't they won't have jobs, travel opportunities, leisure pursuits, etc

It may be very prevalent.
This is early on in the pandemic but in this article it mentions a study with 21 covid patients where 11 had increased Cytokines. And also states a significant proportion of those hospitalised have increased cytokines.

No debate on the rising death toll after taking the vaccine?
Or us it because, like covid, the deaths tend to be in over 80 yr olds?
Death from covid....quick, lock everyone down, death linked to vaccine....nothing go see here, just an old person with underlying conditions.

If you think some dotnetters have wildly differing views on Covid vaccination, consider that of Brazil's President Bolsonaro. He has categorically stated that he will not be taking the vaccines which are now being rolled out in the country and that he is genuinely worried that those who do will turn into alligators.
And I thought Trump was a nugget.......

The contrary view is that we see the world through our own eyes and our own experiences.
Many of us have had experience of someone dying due to Covid. The person I knew was well under 80, had no known health issues and was not overweight.
A member of my extended family is the nurse in charge of the main Covid ward in one of the UK's major cities. She's seen, first hand, the awful things this virus does to people of all ages. Her staff are working round the clock to help, at risk to their own health through exhaustion.
On the other side, I've no experience of anyone I know suffering from a vaccine.
Maybe it's time to show a bit of empathy or compassion?

That's very funny, Widdy and it would be even funnier if Bolsonaro wasn't the President of Brazil. His comments were reported by Tim Vickery on RS. He lives in Rio and usually reports on Brazilian football. If Brazilians are as gullible as some American voters, you have to think some of them will be dissuaded from receiving the vaccine.

The UK approach regarding vaccination seems to be a case of ‘Never mind the quality, feel the width.’
There has been a fair amount of war imagery used in the battle against Covid, and increasingly it resembles WW1 where the majority of the fighting is trench warfare with daily casualty lists but little obvious progress. Back in March we were told it would all be over by Xmas as by then we would have developed a new wonder weapon, apparently forgetful that any enemy or indeed virus will regroup and adapt to the changing terrain.
Now that the notion of a fast, decisive victory has receded it is not clear to me what form a future victory or armistice will take.

Sammer. I'm sorry but that's just tosh. Even in the summer I was reading articles about there being no guarantee that the boffins would be able to create a vaccine.
And are you really criticising them for trying to get as many people jabbed as quickly as possible cause that's how it sounds.

The PM did say at the outset that things would be back to normal by Xmas. That was around the time he talked of sombreros, muggers and whacking moles but before we were being told of a ‘world beating’ track and trace system. The ‘magic bullet’ of a vaccine was being heralded later than that it is true, but without any codicils about Covid19 mutating. We were being promised a short ‘war,’ which demanded short term sacrifices from citizens.
None of this has materialised so we now have Priti Patel coming on screen to shift the responsibility for failure on to ‘unpatriotic’ citizens. The tabloids do their bit and regularly report on teenage raves and street parties, as if these rare events could possibly be the reason for the infection rate rising across the UK. The Labour Party has surpassed itself by demanding something like total lockdown- whatever that is- apparently unaware that the biggest sufferers during lockdown are not businesses but actually people who sell their labour.
Regards vaccination, at present the UK position is to ignore the recommendations about the use of Pfizer from the company which produces it. There is little point crowing about high vaccination rates- as was happening two weeks ago- if there is not enough of the vaccine to finish off the programme in the required time. As I understand, no other European countries are contemplating a 12 week gap between injections apart from the UK government which is patting itself on the back for better vaccination rates.

I work in a very technical industry where formal testing of products is of the utmost importance. The products are designed to save people's lives in fires.
Its not that uncommon for situations to arise that weren't foreseen or for some other reason weren't part of the tested scenarios. When that happens, very clever people look at the data and publish judgements based on their findings.
Now I'd hazard that this is what has happened here with the new variant of the virus. The end decision will no doubt have been taken by the politicians and there will undoubtedly be a degree of calculated risk involved. Presumably the modelling suggested that the risk would be far greater in not getting larger numbers of people their first jab sooner. Otherwise why would they do it?

People put far too much importance on what Pfizer says.
They are a private company who have tested their product under strict conditions (i.e. a 21 day interval between doses). They can only guarantee that their vaccine works under these conditions, because this is the way they tested it.
As JTH123 says, some clever people will have looked at the data, and previous data from other vaccines, and decided that it might be better overall to prioritise first doses over second doses.

Given the demographics recieving it (only >80's in Scotland right now) and with the time it takes for the body to manufacture a resistance, it wouldn't be a stretch to see some sadly pass away in the period after receiving it. No?

My guess would be that someone in hospital is probably being treated for a serious illness and could therefore be on a combination of drugs. These can't possibly all have been tested for reaction with the vaccine so they'll hold off administering the vaccine until recovered. Known as a 'contraindication'.
There's also the fact that your vital signs will be monitored while being treated for the main cause of being in hospital. Lots of people say they feel 'mildly under the weather' after any vaccination so any positive/negative results of the main treatment could be obscured by the vaccine administration.
Hope you friend is feeling better soon.

This was the thinking at first when they discovered the numbers dying. The thought it could be loss of fluids due to diarrhoea that vaccines can cause.
They analysed the numbers that were dying in carehomes and discovered the numbers were in line with the number of deaths they normally had in the same period. Around 400 a week were dying. At the time they discovered there may be an issue the figures still were 400 a week.
Obviously something they need to monitor.

Take a vaccine to remain under the same restrictions.
A generation of educational disruption.
Billions that could have been spent on protecting the vulnerable going to posh kids with start up companies while small businesses are encouraged to spend thousands to be covid safe then told they have to close anyway.
Suicides.
The continued cuts on benefits during a pandemic
The restraints on family interaction.
Tiers, they're here to stay and the only justification will be numbers on a screen, bit like the budget for track and trace.
People having sever side effects after taking the vaccine or dying (I know, expected but ok because covid).
The normal interactions of everyday life.
People medically exempt from wearing a mask facing abuse....
No jab no travel, no job, no shop.
Barely any access to mental health services despite numerous studies showing both adults and children are suffering from that lack of social interaction.
All this and much more so our government can shirk responsibility and steal billions.
If you think for one second that Boris and co care anything about your health or any of these issues you're nuts.

I`m not under any illusion that BJ & co care much about me or your average Joe. I also have no doubt that they have awarded contracts to those who are friends of the Tory party. Covid or no Covid, they would have done that anyway.
In a sense, we deserve what we get. If we are prepared to vote against a PR voting system in the UK and against home rule, you run the risk of a rabble like this lot running the country with a majority in parliament. If that happens during a particularly difficult time, it just amplifies what`s wrong with the system.
However, unless the sight of people`s parents and grandparents lying dead in hospital corridors is one that we are happy to endure so that we keep our "freedoms" at all times, I am yet to hear the alternative to the current policy. The one that seems to have been put in place by most governments around the world, regardless of their political persuasion.
If you try and reduce the spread of the disease, then role out a vaccine, it would seem to offer us the best chance of us ever getting back to normal.
I am suspicious about how the disease started, but that`s also another argument.
If Rasta is suggesting that we shouldn`t give up our freedom of movement and interaction somewhat, you`re going to kill off a bunch more people than will be killed off with the current policy. Ironically enough, that`s precisely what Dominic Cummings apparently suggested at an early meeting of the minds at the start of all this.

"I`m not talking about killing people I`m talking about them being properly protected"
How would you properly protect people?
I think trying to stop the spread and then vaccinating people is as good a strategy as any.
" people are dying because of the list I gave above, are their deaths ok because it isn`t covid?"
Literally no-one has said that. Also, the people I know who are unfortunate enough to have a serious illness or mental health issues - which is not a huge list, but isn`t no-one either - have still been treated. As stated before, people should not be left behind because of Covid, but it is not something I have seen in my own experience. I am not disputing that it has happened though.

Look into a small business owner's eyes and tell them their business doesn't matter.
Look into the eyes of a child who has lost a parent yo paused cancer treatment and tell them their parent didn't matter.
Look into the eyes of someone on the brink and tell them their mental health doesn't matter because...well...covid.

You are clearly not wrong in that no-one wants cancer treatment stopped, small business owners case aside or people with mental health issue disregarded.
As you say though, people tend to see things based on their own experience and that`s not what I`ve witnessed. I think, in general, there has been a pulling together of communities, people trying to help each other and an effort to try and keep things going as much as possible. I`ve not seen anyone denied cancer treatment, in fact I know someone who was recently diagnosed and was in the hospital for an operation very quickly. Anyone I know with mental health issues has continued to get treated, thankfully.
I do however, know someone who died of Covid. I know a nurse who runs a Covid ward. I know of someone else who would almost certainly not survive if they got it.
It`s a balancing act, for sure. I don`t want any life lost that could be avoided, but I think the restrictions probably provide the best opportunity to keep the most amount of people alive as possible. I`ve not seen many other workable options put forward.

‘If Rasta is suggesting that we shouldn`t give up our freedom of movement and interaction somewhat, you`re going to kill off a bunch more people than will be killed off with the current policy.’
That’s very likely to be true. However, yesterday’s 100,000 Covid deaths headline figure is the type of number beloved by tabloid newspapers, usually without context.
‘‘There were 608,002 deaths in England and Wales in 2020. The 608,002 deaths figure works out as around 10.2 deaths per 1,000 people, higher than any year since 2003.
In 1999, the rate was 10.7, in 2000 it was 10.3, and from 2001-2003 it was 10.2. In fact, the death rate was higher every year between 1991 and 2000 than in 2020, so 2020 had the joint-11th highest death rate over the past three decades.
Over the past two decades, life expectancy has been increasing and so the death rate has been falling. 2020 saw a sharp reversal to that trend, with the death rate returning to where it was in the early 2000s.’’ (data from website Full Fact, January 21st.)
None of the above tells us how much higher the death rate would have been had no restrictions been put in place. Nor can it reliably identify between those who died with Covid rather than by Covid.

Sammer - Numbers have lost all context during this pandemic so it is pretty pointless to try to use them in arguments.
It is clear that Covid is real, and the figure of 100000 deaths either fully or partly due to Covid is probably within about 20% of the real number.
Is this a big number? Yes
Is it as big as the number of people who died due to heart or circulatory disease in the last year? No. That was probably over 150000, like it is every year.
Is heart disease preventable? Not really, but you can probably increase your chances of avoiding it or delaying it by making lifestyle changes.
Has heart disease, and government campaigns to reduce it, been on the front pages of national newspapers during the last year? Maybe once or twice, but I must have missed it.

So no fans at football this season then we're into flu and cold season again, this being a Pars forum, enjoy them while you can because sport outside "Elite" level (sic) is under serious threat.
I extolled the virtue of regarding life experiencially and to do so is fair enough but here's another year of all of my earlier list and more.....
If you are untouched experiencially by any of that list you are very lucky, long may it continue.
And the vaccine companies now slowing down supply due production problems disrupting the once "crucial" timetables that all of a sudden aren't "crucial".

Interesting figures, even if the last one is not supplied for 2020.
During WW2 the suicide rate was low in the UK.
During The troubles in Northern Ireland the suicide rate was lower than for the rest of the UK.
However, the long term social and health problems are another matter. Our great UK gangster generation of the Krays, the Richardsons, Jimmy Boyle, Arthur Thompson, Walter Norval etc were all in their teens when schools were often closed during the war and there was a rampant black market. They moved outwith parental control with impunity and took a brutal stake in society.
The judgment on Covid will be taking place 20 years from now and it will care little for elderly people who died.

Was looking for info on this myself.
Of the deaths by suicide attributed to the first 2 quarters of 2020 only 25% of them were dated as being in 2020.
There is a built in delay in figures as in suspected suicide an autopsy and an inquest must be carried out before cause of death is determined.
So the figures are absolutely meaningless whether they are higher or lower.
The truth is we don't know if there is increased or decreased suicide.
Won't stop a certain individual claiming otherwise though.
If it turns out there is an increase he will be "told you so" if the opposite is true we won't hear a peep.

Since we now know you need to be fact checked on every claim you make we went looking at the numbers.
No actual figures are available which can show either an increase or decrease. So while your claim may be accurate you are not in a position to make the claim just as it can not be claimed number have reduced due to the lag in recording that waiting inquest results causes.

Newspapers may have been reporting charities stories but I thought you didn't follow "newspapers". The BMJ have said that people are speculating that suicides have risen but the actual figures do not support this view.

If suicides have went down during lockdown, and that`s still an if as the data hasn`t been confirmed yet I wonder if it could be down to two reasons. Firstly not being in the workplace because of furlough. For those lucky enough to have a career they might not understand the misery that can be caused that simply having a low quality job can provide, especially if the workplace isn`t a friendly one.
Secondly with many social activities curtailed, certainly all the expensive ones, social media isn`t full of all your `friends` advertising what a fun and full life they are leading.

Actually the second quarter in 2020 went down because there were delays to inquests.
However, that then still means the average for the first three quarters of 2020 were pretty low.

Wow, you really want to go there OK.
You had previously called me a "cretin" and a "pr*k" for asking for a link to a freedom of information request that you claimed existed.
You then claimed it was "a paper only" FOI, so I found that FOI requests legally have to be published online and found the governments location for FOI requests online and the FOI request you claimed existed didn't exist.
During the back and forth I may have used the term "idiots like you" but don't recall this myself.
Then a day or two later you came up with a nice little childish play on my username.
I want to make it very clear to you I was not "crying" when I messaged you I was upset but angry.
This is the message I sent you.
"Thanks ever so much for calling me Saddo on .net. Really witty using my username in such a way.
You f*****g know I have mental health issues and after a day of constantly thinking about suicide it was absolutely delightful to discover your witticism. Really made me feel so f*****g great."
Now after someone telling you they had been thinking about suicide all day what sort of response do you think I got?
Here is what you said.
"Whoa, hold up, you give it "idiots like you" patter, what you expect? You get what you give."
Even if I was 100% in the wrong thats not how to respond to someone who has just told you they were suicidal.
I will leave it at that and people can make their own judgement on what type of person you really are.
Edit:
Done a wee search for where I used "idiots like you" and here it is.

If it's dodgy as you claim why would he give it to his own family?

If you truly feel there is not enough context to my version of events feel free to expand on it.
I'm in a really good place mentally at the moment so can take any criticism of my actions that might come my way.
You know fine well there was more to the conversation than that and that I also reacted to you.
I am glad you are in better place and you know fine well my intention toward you.
I'll leave it at that, post what you will.
I've unblocked you on Facebook so you can go check what was said.
Take a look there is literally nothing more to the conversation that what I said before you told me "you get what you give"
I've got screenshots so you can't deny it.
There is literally nothing you won't lie about.

Its a bit more than a disagreement.
I went to him privately when I had mental health issues and he saw fit to use this against me now.
He is now saying there was more to it than what I say.
Should I just let him lie about me because it's not pleasant for you?
I will share the screenshot of the whole conversation and then I'm done. People will see the truth of what actually happened.

I dread to think what that figure would have been had there been no lockdown(s).

Not taking sides.
Just pointing out that a few posters have wanted the thread closed since this disagreement started.
We can't currently close threads as that function is still broken so our only option would be to delete the whole thread.... Which we would obviously only do as a last resort.
If the both of you are friends on Facebook why don't you both work it out on messenger.
P. S... Never read the screenshots but I hope there's no swear words in there... Otherwise the screenshots will be removed (we can still do that 🤣).
Seriously guys... Work it out.

Few nasty words in there but really not one for sharing either way.
Guys, live and let live.

Removed screenshots myself as there are a few swears in there.
Think that anyone who did see them will see that there was no more to the conversation than I stated.
I've had my say so I'm done.

You well over stepped the mark.
Quite selective in what you posted too.
Out of order, dishonest, best just steer clear of each other yeah?

"inmates" - it's not a prison!!!
Well documented that vaccine takes 2-3 weeks before effective.

How many times does this need explained - the vaccine supports your body to fight off COVID. It does NOT stop you getting it.

Exactly Jake. Where I work 2 people have tested positive over 28 days after getting the 2nd jab. They have no ill effects either.

Terrible, terrible day for some on this thread.
The Oxford vaccine has now been approved for use across all member states of the EU by the European Medicines Agency.
The Tories clearly influenced this decision to line their own pockets.
It`s been found to be 66% effective against moderate to severe illness, and 85% effective against the most serious symptoms.
It sounds like they are also supporting the extended gap between doses of up to 12 weeks to provide flexibility in the delivery schedule.
