 Vaccine Passports
Topic Originator: auldpar  
Date:   Wed 6 Oct 17:09

Is there a difference between the new ones introduced last week and the one which you could get a paper copy and later a PDF with the appropriate QR codes? I`m aware that the the newest ones were intended for entry to nightclubs etc but are they also used for foreign travel?

We got the paper ones and then the follow-up QR ones to allow us to visit family in Canada. Do I need the new one too? Is it worth getting? I`ve no plans to go to a nightclub, dancing, or any other events!

I tried their app today and it must be the worst app I ever had,note the had,on my phone.I really hope the primary kids got well rewarded for developing it.

I`ll stick to the pdf download on my phone and the letter if I need proof of vaccinations.

Came into Tenerife 2 weeks ago, vaccine certificate checked at Edinburgh Airport, my wife sailed through the checks at Tenerife Airport, I was stopped and asked for test results. On showing my proof of vaccination I was cleared to go through, I had a paper copy but many were just using their mobiles.

When I turned the `phone camera to "landscape " it worked first time - strange how technology pans out !!!

The vaccination rate is between 85 to 90% of the population so its not too much of a surprises that more people in hospital have been vaccinated than haven't.

Remember there are far, far more people vaccinated than not. Over 80% of the over 12 population of the UK actually. The fact that the unvaccinated are being hospitalised in such huge numbers compared to the vaccinated speaks volumes as our good friends at the BMJ detail.

I don't know if Rastapari is referring to the same Public Health Scotland report that this Reuters analysis deals with, but if so the response from PHS is telling:
".... the data actually shows that vaccinated individuals are far less likely to die from COVID-19 infection than unvaccinated individuals, once you take into account the underlying population sizes and differences in the age structure of individuals who are vaccinated compared to unvaccinated."

https://mobile.reuters.com/article/amp/idUSL1N2QQ24L

Also, from the BMJ report that TOWK linked to:
Between the week beginning Monday 16 August 2021 and the week ending Sunday 12 September, the rate of hospital admissions of over 80s was 50.5 per 100 000 in the fully vaccinated and 143.9 per 100 000 in the unvaccinated, while deaths were 45.5 and 145.4 per 100 000, respectively. These trends were seen across the board. For example, for 60-69 year olds the hospital admission rates were 13.5 per 100 000 in the fully vaccinated and 74.3 per 100 000 in the unvaccinated, while deaths were 4.1 and 24.3 per 100 000, respectively.

Can tell statistics aren't you strong point 🤦‍♂️

Firstly, it's marginal. Secondly, there is a far higher proportion of vaccinated people than unvaccinated people.

The most recent studies suggest unvaccinated people are between 10 and 20 times more likely to die from COVID.

Notice that the rate of infection is up but the rate of hospitalisation is not when compared to the same time last year. I wonder why that might be?

I don’t have an issue with people opting out of the vaccination programme - but I do have a problem if they (God forbid) fall ill with Covid and require major hospital treatment.

People are free to live alone in the woods if they wish to rid themselves of social responsibility.

But if you want to live in a society where you have rights such as free association then you also have to accept the responsibilities which are attached to those rights.

In this case you have the right to refuse the vaccine, however you also have the responsibility to not infect others, which means that on balance you shouldn't be in large crowds of people or anywhere where you are likely to meet and infect folk who can't, for whatever reason, get vaccinated.

I think it's only reasonable that those who choose not to be vaccinated should take the social hit in order to better protect those for whom being vaccinated isn't a choice. At least until herd immunity is reached.

I also think that it is fine to offer reasonable criticism towards those who make decisions with the potential to harm others.

Wotsit, I’m unvaccinated, for my own personal reasons which I’ve shared before. I’m not one of those anti-vax nutters that people often associate people like me with, you won’t see me at protests claiming this is all one big scam etc. We don’t all believe in that nonsense.

I don’t as part of normal life pre covid associate myself in large gatherings, to be honest I struggle to think of anything worse. I’m not anti-social but when i do go out it’s small in nature…other than my visits to EEP.

My days of clubbing and such forth are long gone.

Despite not being vaccinated, i take precautions arguably some vaccinated folk have given up on. I still maintain distance from folk when necessary, wear the mask when it is required, sanitise hands regularly etc etc.

But, because I’m unvaccinated, like many others out there, we are treated like we have it, that if someone does catch it, it must be those that aren’t vaccinated not recognising that those that are vaccinated can still pass it on.

It’s as if we’re a walking disease and we lose all rights we had because we are sceptical about an unproven vaccine that has been rushed through the cycle. There are folk that have valid concerns, but these folk get tagged as being influenced and victim of social media, we’re all crazy.

I’ve not once criticised or looked down on anyone for their decision to take the vaccine, nor have I discouraged them, only defended myself from those that choose to pass judgement on me without knowing anything about me or my personal circumstances…I’m apparently just a selfish and inconsiderate individual. I’d argue that says more about others than me.

My email is in my profile, if anyone is willing to risk socialising with myself over a pint at legends then just get in touch, get to know me a bit more and then you can cast judgement.

P.S. Wotsit, I’d recommend you jump on to the Prince Andrew thread and correct your post that Lux has called out on.

Berry, the science is clear: if people who are unvaccinated go to events and gatherings where they mingle socially then they are putting others at risk.

If people choose to remain unvaccinated for non medical reasons then they should not be beyond criticism. Granted, I`d suggest that you deserve far less criticism than anti-vax conspiracy theorists (you`re not spreading misinformation for one thing)

However, the decision to remain unvaccinated has repercussions for folk other than the individual making that decision.

I`m with Berry on this one.

If you got vaccinated to reduce your risk of hospitalisation or death due to covid then you made a good choice, although if you are under 30 the risk was so small that the benefits aren`t that great.

If you got vaccinated to protect people around you then you have been a bit misled. The vaccine does have an impact on your chance of infecting others, but this benefit (over unvaccinated people) only exists if everyone behaves the same way in terms of taking PCR tests, staying at home if they have symptoms, etc.

One thing that people seem reluctant to address is the direct financial cost of vaccinating millions of low risk people. Vaccinating all 12-30 year olds might only save 100 lives but costs around a billion pounds. There are many other ways that this money could be spent to benefit young people that could save many more lives, for example investment in mental health, education, or sports facilities.

It is probably clear from what I have written that I haven`t been vaccinated. The experts have helpfully informed me that this isn`t my fault. I am just a victim of social media, I am uneducated, or I don`t understand how viruses and vaccines work. It can`t be the first one, because I don`t read things on FB or Twitter. It probably isn`t the second one, because I did OK at school and managed to get a couple of degrees afterwards. By a process of elimination it must be the third one, but I should probably tell my employer since they have been paying me to make vaccines for years.

So what would it take for you to consider the vaccine to no longer be unproven?

Clinical trials started I think July 2020 so we are pretty advanced in proving now;
6.65 billion dozes administered
2.83 billion people fully vaccinated

If there was a mass problem we would know about it unless the worlds press are controlled by some sinister cabal.

I have a wide social group and I don’t know a single person out of hundreds that have had a significant bad reaction other than some have felt a bit ill.

It can’t be the same old arguments as time is moving on and dismisses many of them. Was it not those against on .net whose claimed infinite wisdom was that we would all be in lockdown in October?

The nonsense is simply ignored and something else that is obvious to a blind man presented as the prophecy fulfilment or BS stats and misinformation presented instead. The straw grasping just increases as time goes on.

Some folk are that entrenched that I think they don’t even know what they are really arguing against now as demonstrated by Rasta’s post on this thread which is either wilfully stupid or simply trolling.

Fortunately I don`t have any dirt on big pharma other than what you would probably expect from large companies with shareholders to please.

I`m not a big fan of commercial departments who like to play up positive information and play down negative things just to make more money. I have to deal with this kind of stuff every day and it can be pretty frustrating. This makes me wary of the figures that are being shared at the moment.

While I accept that, based on current information, it is likely that the risk-benefit profile of the vaccine is positive for me, this will probably reduce over time when new information becomes available. What I find it increasingly hard to accept is the way the Pfizer vaccine has been pushed on kids and young adults, in particular on boys. If I were presented with the current data and someone asked me if I think this vaccine should be recommended for 12-15 year old boys I would probably reply "Are you on drugs?". Don`t get me wrong, the vaccine won`t kill many kids and the risk of serious problems is low, but the same could be said for colonoscopies and I wouldn`t recommend kids having them just to go to school.

So, in summary, I haven`t been vaccinated (yet) because I am a stubborn, spiteful, miserable b******.

I didn`t make my point clear enough, apologies for the lack of clarity.

NHS staff are not at risk from non infectious/contagious admissions to hospital - but they are seriously jepordised by patients in ICU who have refused Covid vaccinations, where the illness might have been avoided.

I think the BMJ criticism was valid, but that doesn`t necessarily mean that the benefit-risk for boys and young men is in favour of the vaccine.

What is clear is that the probability of hospitalisation in this age group is very low following vaccination and very low following infection so, either way, the chances of everything being OK are very high.

Not been following the Covid stats for a while but was shocked to see that the U.K. has the second highest infection rate on a population basis in the world second only to Romania.

New cases yesterday were just over 400 000 with the U.K. registering 49000….’. more than 10% of all new cases worldwide……..wow.

Various reasons for this of course.

England is lagging behind Scotland for vaccinations for 12-18 year old and this is the group that the experts believe are causing the high infection rate.

U.K. handling of this has been abysmal from the start so I should not be surprised really….

A huge hurrah for the Australian Medical Association for giving a firm two fingers up to the “Covid-deniers” and “anti-vaxxers”, claiming they should opt out of care in the public health system if they catch the virus as Victoria reopens on Friday after months of lockdown.

AMA Victoria president, Dr Roderick McRae, said those who do not believe Covid-19 is real or a threat should update their advanced care directives and inform their relatives that they do not wish to receive care in the public health system if diagnosed with the virus.

"We know as we reopen it’s the unvaccinated who are going to get Covid, and they are going to get great hospital treatment with many new experimental drugs, even though they think the vaccine is ‘experimental’," McRae said.

"A whole lot of these people are passionate disbelievers that the virus even exists. And they should notify their nearest and dearest and ensure there’s an advanced care directive that says, ‘If I am diagnosed with this disease caused by a virus that I don’t believe exists, I will not disturb the public hospital system, and I’ll let nature run its course’."

Sounds like a good plan.
They could also install carbon monoxide breath tests at the entrance to weed out smokers.
An alcohol and drugs screening test would be good, too.
A weight and height check and they can send overweight people packing.
If people all wear fitness trackers they can check their movement over the last few months and tell sedentary people that they aren`t welcome either.

We need to keep the hospitals free for non self-inflicted ailments. .

Checked my vaccine status today on the app (got an invite for a flu injection which states `you may be offered a Covid booster`). It seems there`s a new version of the app which brings in a `domestic use` facility. However, I can`t seem to update it. Do I have to scrap the current app I have and start again? Ironically I am one day short of 6 months from the second jab on the `flu appointment day. Maybe they`ll let me have one anyway?

I had my flu jag last week and was offered my Covid booster as well. I pointed out that it was just short of 6 months since I`d had my second Covid jag. I was told that the minimum period between the second jag and the booster was actually 24 weeks so I was eligible for it.

Booster or your passport is invalid.
Then it'll be Bill's pills.

Then another booster...Then another.
Rinse and repeat...over and over.

The thought police...sorry...fact checkers will keep your spirits and sleeves up for you.
What a world.

Omg wait, chronological booster vaccines, that is so wrong and unheard of for fighting virus’s……

Oh wait, the flu vaccine is yearly.

Really still divides opinion eh?
That’s ok, sure we can make the choices that are right for us and still get on with each other :)

Can't believe you lot getting vaccinated. I've heard the doctors and nurses are sat twiddling their thumbs as hospital admissions for COVID are massively down despite comparable infection rates. You should all be ashamed of yourselves!
