The inevitable impact of Covid19

[* ORM *]

I'd usually take a paracetamol as a very last resort. I've never been able to take pills without gagging.

Out of interest, why the wait 15 minutes in the car afterwards?

Isn’t that BAU?

Get in. Adjust seat. Adjust mirror. Apply lippy. Readjust mirror. Forgot hair, readjust mirror. Brush hair. Adjust mirror. Check handbag several times. Adjust seat. Readjust mirror again. Right that should be it.

Ok check mirror. **** is my lippy uneven? …….

Fair enough mate, SZ is an "eclectic church", you do as you feel happy and good luck to you.

The restrictions on observations have now been lifted and you don't have to remain in the surgery/Centre now.
The 15 minute wait is a standard precaution after having any vaccine including the Flu etc. Some people can have a reaction up to 15 mins afterward

But that's months away yet?

I know but P&O in there wisdom feel too much hassle and have changed the port to Thailand now. They have given us an extra £600 spending money for the inconvenience although I would have preferred to have gone to HK

Out of the blue on Tuesday I started feeling a bit rough, couldn’t sleep at all that night and by Wednesday morning was in a bit of a state so phoned in sick. Same pattern Wednesday night so messaged my boss. He asked if I'd done a Covid test and I laughed a bit as I'm fully up to date with the jabs, never had any sign of Covid before and hadn't mixed with anyone the few days before.

I humoured him and found a test at home. Surprise surprise I've got Covid

Same here, tested positive yesterday (Monday)

Fine, don't get jabbed. Why do you feel the need to dig the rest of us out?

Actually, don't bother nobody gives a monkies.

Had my jab Sunday shortly after 10 in the morning. Had a slight sore arm around the children's bedtime.

Following day felt a little bit crap and a splitting headache. Not sure if this was all due to the jab or if my morning commute of 35 minutes being extended to almost 2 hours due to morons not bring able to drive in the rain and having crashes contributed.

This morning felt fit as a fiddle.

Me and her got our mature persons 2022 Flu jabs this morning. So far so good, nothing aches at all for the moment.

And to top the last one. Shanghai in lockdown for 2 cases.

You won't see this reported in the mainstream media but it's been trending on Twitter: a Pfizer director has admitted in European Parliament that the vaccine was never tested on preventing transmission before it entered the 'market':

We were lied to.

Doesn't surprise me. The vaccine was created in no time at all and the govt signed a waiver so that no covid maker could be sued for illness/death caused by any reaction to the vaccine

How does this still need repeating? The point of the vaccines was to reduce the symptoms, not to stop you catching it.

Further investigation led me to this article from January 2021 where scientists confirmed that they hadn't measured the effect of transmission the vaccines have, seems like this MEP (who I'm sure doesn't have any sort of political agenda) is the one lying to you by making out Pfizer claimed something they never said.

Fact check: Scientists do not yet know whether the COVID-19 vaccine reduces transmission of the virus

A Facebook post, shared hundreds of times since Jan. 15, claims that the COVID-19 vaccine does not prevent transmission of the disease, meaning vaccinated people will effectively become “silent spreaders”. It uses this as an argument against introducing health passports...

I have had my covid vaccinations so not anti vaccinations at all but I think the poster is saying we were lied to in saying that being vaccinated reduced risk of transmitting to others.

See my second comment, Pfizer openly said they hadn't tested transmissibility when they released the vaccine, there was no lying at any point from them.

One thing is for certain, without Covid vaccinations the worldwide death toll from this virus would have been far higher than it eventually was, and still is. I find it incredible that some still think that vaccines were not worth developing and constantly try to denigrate them.
