    Boris says......

    How is it clear? No doubt for some people immunity drops (older people or vulnerable), but where is his proof it drops for younger people? You shouldn't have to keep having a jab six months or so after your last one to be allowed to be called "fully vaccinated". When will the madness end? No time soon because the pharma companies are making billions from governments pretty much blackmailing people to be jabbed a couple of times a year probably for the foreseeable.

    Why can't people freely get hold of antibody tests? You could take one and see what level of antibodies you have and THEN decide if you want another jab rather than just assuming your protection is no longer good enough. That way we could send a lot more jabs to poor countries by not needing as many in our own country. I don't think Booster numbers will get anywhere near the number who have had two jabs. Some won't like being jabbed so often, some won't like not having a choice of another AZ if your first two were AZ and others will want to wait for more medium and long term data to mixing doses.

    Not being funny, if you’re offered a vaccine, just take it. It has literally no negative effect on you or anyone else.

    I can categorically say that nobody who has refused the vaccine that I have spoken to, hasn’t been a ******* moron.

    I work with one, who claims that, because her brother got Covid, and was over it in three days, it's 'nothing but a cold'.

    I'm early 40's, not overweight, have never smoked a single cigarette, and I could hardly stand up three weeks after my positive test. I'm still not right - though my life is getting back to normal, slowly - and I tested positive in fvcking March.

    She won't have the vaccine. She has about 60 units of alcohol a week, but 'you ain't putting nuffink in mah bodeh'. Apart from a bottle of wine on a school night.

    I don't understand why people won't have a vaccine that drastically reduces your chances of being hospitalised by a virus that is still running rampant around the globe.

    I’m just so glad to have been jagged 3 times.
    Roll on the 4th
    Just can’t understand those who do not believe this virus is a killer.

    Because it's their right to object, it's a right to not be told what to do, to be pedantic because they can.
    Just do as you're told and get the bloody jab.
    It doesn't make u a sheep or a Tory it's commonsense.

    That should do it......

    Can’t wait for mine.

    It’ll be a 6 month twice a year booster. Get used to it. Efficacy wanes by month 6. You don’t wait for your car to break down before you put petrol in it now do you?

    Neither do I. I am saying before a booster people should be able to freely get a antibody test to see what level of protection they still have, as many getting a booster likely don't need one from two previous jabs and catching covid, like here.

    An antibody test is still a painful stick a needle in you jobby and carries the likelihood of telling you that you need to have a booster. I’m not saying this to be controversial, I just don’t understand why anyone would choose to have that to try and get out of having a booster when it offers no protection and a vaccine does.

    I'm not having anyone tell me how fast I can drive, I'm a good driver and if I want to drive at 50 in a 30 then I will.

    Just get a jab it is ridiculous to listen to the nonsense spouted. Its winter, viruses get passed easily and I don't want anymore lockdown. Get your booster as soon as you can. Nobody is spying on you or trying to grow two heads.

    I find it utterly hilarious that for someone who’s spent years making hard left political posturing you’re willing to accept that basic freedoms are now dependent on a lifetime subscription to Pfizer.

    Cognitive dissonance a go-go.

    I had my booster Pfizer a week ago.

    First two days I was fine.

    On the third day I awoke and when I tried to get out of bed I could hardly move or walk.
    It felt as if every part of me was on fire..
    I ached in every single bone and was hobbling about for 4 days, feeling nauseous and over emotional.
    Finally it was over and I'm ok now.

    It wasn't pleasant bit nothing as bad as getting the actual covid itself.
    I'd have the vaccination again to be safe !

    Every person is different though.
    That's the strange thing with this virus.
    Hoping my hubby doesn't have same symptoms as me when he gets his on Thursday, even though he's an Owl!

    What's hard left?
    Do you mean true Democratic Socialism of the Labour party of which all or most members have been removed by the hard right of Starmer's Party ?

    Standing up clapping for her at Wimbledon, making Barbie dolls of her and now she’s a pariah and an ‘outlier’ for the view that young healthy people don’t need a lifetime subscription to drugs to cope with what for them is a minor ailment.
