The Vaccine Thread

Only shortbread or digestives. I went ****ing mental. Absolute shower of shite.

If you message Robert Peston he’ll be all over this, bound to raise it with Boris at the next press conference

Off to Worthing hospital in a few mins to get my jab. Was very easy to book through work. Took about two minutes. All my colleagues say the process itself is also very quick and efficient.
Very relieved to be getting this. We’ve had a few cases at work now and for the first time since it began I started to get a little didgy about the virus itself.
I am very impressed with how the NHS are smashing the shit out of the vaccination process.

Marvellous news my parents are also getting the jab next week. Also a special mention for the UK vaccine task force who helped secure the vaccines at the earliest opportunity and the MHRA for expediting regulatory clearance.

Seem to be struggling for supplies in my backwater of Kent, our vaccination centre has been closed 3 days in the last week and had one day, when it was open, where there were queues of more than 90 minutes.

Barber and Boris out!

I have requested that mine is administered personally by Ursula von der Leyen.

My 80yo MiL with COPD and Diabetes finally got an invite yesterday to go to Ticehurst for a jab. She lives in Hailsham. 20 miles away.

Dony worry. My mum had the same, a letter to go 30 miles away. They are making sure any surplus is used up within the age round.

Couple of days later she had her letter to have a jab a few miles away.

I suggest you ring your local surgery.

Brilliant news, my mum got done this evening. It's been a GOOD DAY.

My wife has her vaccination scheduled for tomorrow morning, at Maidstone hospital, despite the hospital telling her it would be our GP surgery that would coordinate.

To be honest I don't really care who does the jab, it could even be done by Phil Taylor, as long as she gets it done - though after today's news it would be good if she got the Astra-Zenica version!

Sitting in the car park at Maidstone hospital while my wife has her jab.

Hopefully today is the start of the rest of our lives - been shielding 11 months and probably a few more to come yet, at least until she gets second jab, but it does feel like we are turning a corner!

Pleased for you. Must be such a relief

Thank you!

12 weeks to the next dose and then hopefully we can get on with life a bit

I can't see me going into a shop or pub anytime, if ever again - beer garden might be ok I suppose... but at least we might be more comfortable if our little one starts school in September!

Pfizer jab done, next one in May.

I was very impressed with the organisation at the Racecourse. It was all very efficient.

Great. My sister said exactly the same.
I’ve got my jab this afternoon at our local community hall.

Just had the AstraZeneca jab.
Was in and out in less than 5 minutes!
Can now sort of relax and watch Albion get another 3 points.
Note, I said sort of relax.����

Early studies suggest the Oxford/AZ jab us significantly less effective against the SA variant, extremely worrying considering it now appears that variant and other similar mutations are now in community transmission.

Yep and fate conspired that was the one I got first dose today, at least Autumn till update. Quite pissed at this news.

But the company expressed confidence that the vaccine would offer protection against serious cases, because it created neutralising antibodies similar to those of other coronavirus vaccines.
