Our government is spineless giving in to them. The decision to resume isn't based on us letting them have some, it's based on them deciding that it is in fact safe. They already have millions of doses which are manufactured on the continent aswell as the UK How have our Government given in to them? They have received less vaccines than was planned and our government have refused to allow them to top it up from our supply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So how have we got supply shortages all of a sudden and the EU seem happier to get on with things. We are fed the ballox from our government and accept the crap they spout.

I had the AZ yesterday morning - not feeling too bad, just a bit tired. My arm doesnt hurt any more than you'd expect it to having had a needle jammed in it! ?

Almost 6 hours in, for me. Not a hint of anything as yet. Fingers firmly crossed for a side-effect-free weekend. ? For reference, Muckerette was tired with a mild headache the following day. An afternoon nap put paid to that. No achy arm. Best o' luck, buddy. ? Stive Pesley 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 Had mine Wednesday morning, dead arm was the only symptom so probably a dud. Gritstone Ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gee SCREAMER !! Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 Just now, Gerry Daly said: Its really starting to take off in mainland Europe now We all know what that means - This years summer blockbuster The Brazilian Variant coming to your town this June- unless were very careful with incoming traffic. If Europe keep pissing about moaning they haven't got enough vaccine, then shooting themselves in the foot by stockpiling the supplies they have for pointless further testing, we could easily have a further wave in a couple of months. With slowing up of vaccine supply and the threat of new variant we really need to be very careful over the next couple of months or everything could be getting mothballed for the foreseeable.

From what I've read though its the Kent variant that's running rife in Europe with some South African. Also its thought that whilst the current vaccines are possibly less effective against the South African and Brazilian, they still provide some protection. I think that in UK we can be reasonably confident that a 4th wave based on new variants can be held at bay or largely mitigated until we get amended vaccines for booster shots in the Autumn. I'm not so confident about the EU zone though, it looks really dicey. Figures in France for example are going up alarmingly and the Germans are following not far behind Stive Pesley 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norman Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 Can we not call it 'Brazilian' or 'Kent' variants, please? Remember those that got offended by the terms 'Chinese' and 'Wuhan'. They are still feeling it to this day. Angry Ram, Anon, Chester40 and 5 others 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Kent variant should be renamed the Garden variety, and the Brazilian one Capoeira, after the original Kung flu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if you saw that 6 asian women were recently shot dead in that latest US gun massacre? Might not be the best time to make gags about the zero impact of irresponsible language. US gun nuts aren't as rational and nuanced as us exceptional English types. GboroRam and cstand 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
