Hope it's not the Oxford one.
Still haven't forgiven them for 1986.
Anyone else on here got one yet |  | | |  |

Yes of course, had we had Sir Starmer in as PM at this time we would have been in with the EU vaccine buying policy and at this moment at best had a vaccination rate of around 3% of the population and seeing a greater amount of deaths for longer. Yep, I will agree that the government has made quite a few poor choices over the last year but none with any intention of killing people, but they stuck their necks out when the likes of the EU didn't, put together the Oxford/AZ collaboration, invested and the population is now reaping the benefits. Across the channel, the French are suffering with anti-vaxers and a lack of vaccine availability, the Germans have been considering ordering from Russia for a vaccine that has a lower than 3% take up in Russia yet, being available since last Autumn without phase 3 testing, the former Soviet-bloc nations in the EU are now ordering the same vaccine and suffering huge amounts of deaths and to cap it all, Macron has slagged off the Oxford vaccine and the Germans are also deciding to not administer it to over 65's because of a so called lack of testing and yet they cosy up to Putin's offering. Yep, I think Boris has actually done the vaccine job a hell of a lot better than most and definitely better than Sir Starmer would have done. And it is also about time that Drakeford and Wee Jimmy Krankie start acknowledging that their own vaccine programmes are so far advanced because of the actions of the UK government. |
I’m sorry but deflection, the rhetorical scenario that Keir Starmer would do worse, that the EU would be a hindrance, and maintaining that Wales and Scotland should be grateful isn’t really cutting it as a defence.
Also, not deliberately intending to kill people is also a minimum standard of a functioning state, even if saying we need to ‘take it on the chin’ is fcking close to that mark.
I’m guesssing we are both entrenched here.
Otherwise, congratulations on everyone getting their jab! [Post edited 15 Feb 2021 15:37]

The notion that this government has performed well in the vaccine space is questionable. Not using the Pfizer vaccine as prescribed and without any clinical evidence is risky. The AZ/Oxford vaccine was closely monitored by the MHRA and EMA, so no government intervention on that. At the moment, no transparency on procurement of the AZ/Oxford vaccine. When that "cloud" clears we shall see whether we acted properly.
Johnson, Gove and Hancock have a "shitshow" to answer for at some point in the very near future. The vaccine rollout is a logistical success, despite the NHS being taken apart by the Tories over the past 10yrs. It's not the government that delivered here it is work being undertaken by qualified public servants.
It does not hide the fact that this government is an array of nationalists, zealots and liars who have screwed up everything else. |  | | |

The reason the vaccine rollout seems to have been a success has been that they didn't sell it as a huge private contract to their mates as they did with track and trace, by leaving it to the NHS and the Army they were able to actually get something done |  | | |

Exactly how I feel regarding the success of the vaccination roll-out.
I belong to a volunteer motorcycle group, collecting and delivering PPE free of charge to hospitals, GPs, dentists, care homes and even individual carers. There are 3,800 motorcyclists doing this throughout England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland - the fact that this services is still need is appalling.
Without wishing to be party-political, but we have far the worst death rate in Europe and I believe, per capita, the world. That has to be put down to incompetence in the management of the crisis, including handing contracts to mates of the government who have proved incompetent in the extreme, whether in f*cking up contact tracing technology, or purchasing sub-standard PPE which can't be used.
This has cost, and continues to cost the country billions, paid for by you, me, our children, and their children.
So yes, the roll-out is a welcome 'success', but after more than a year of abject and repeated failure. |  | | |

Check the post-PMQ's spat the other week. Starmer wanted to be part of the EMA vaccine procurement programme and during last summer there was a huge amount of criticism levelled at the government for not joining the EMA programme. Even today SNP MP Philippa Whitford is still trying to justify the reasons why we should have joined and yet at the same time chief Euro bureaucrat Guy Verhofstadt has described the EU roll out programme as a fiasco. This is nothing to do about Brexit being a game changer as any of the 27 remaining states could have gone the same way as but chose solidarity instead. Bet many wished they hadn't now. | |

If i did that with you then there wouldn't be any threads left.
Just admit that no-one cares and that this is primarily a football forum. Stop treating it as an opportunity for point scoring. You're supposed to be an adult and a councillor ffs, start fcuking acting like one. | |

You don’t need to ignore the whole thread just me as a poster, and I’m not a Councillor.
I’ll take the hint and cease but reckon you’ll get more enjoyment out of this forum if you use the ignore button instead of reigniting argument a day after it concluded. [Post edited 16 Feb 2021 19:51]

No. I will get more enjoyment if all sides stopped being c nuts. It isn't just you. I'm sure your great to have a beer with. Treat here like that, we are having a beer in a pub and we don't need to involve politics, how bad the world is or how ignorant everyone is.
Just chat about football and random fun sh!t. That is all that is needed here. There are other places for the rest. | |

There's two things at play, the procurement and the rollout. The UK have excelled at both.
On the former Kate Bingham (rounded on by the the Media and the Left when appointed for being Boris mate and ex-fund manager) is a formidable.
This interview with Nick Robinson on how it all happened, is 40 minutes of time very well worth spent...

Had my jab (Astra Zenecca) Friday just gone and no side affects other than a dead arm. I've had a few friends who were hit quite bad with shivers, fever, and headaches, so I'm glad I dodged that bullet.
Next one in May, just before the Luton away game! |  | | |

Had my 2nd jab Friday and had a reaction. Also had one to the first jab.
Anyone else had reactions to both jabs. Lady that stabbed me for the second one warned me that it was possible.
2nd reaction not as bad as the first one. Both flu like symptoms.
Glad there is not a 3rd one. Had enough of that. |  |

Good to read HAYES, there has been talk of those of us that had the Phizer jabs may need a booster in the Autumn, nothing concrete yet, still gathering data, they reckon it lasts at least 6 months.
Hoping it will last a bit longer than that but if another jab required for me personally a bit of a sore arm is nothing to suffer compared to the many this virus has really affected so badly. |  | | |

A bit of pain/discomfort is ok with me.......had both mine and had some minor reaction but nothing untoward.
Well done to Boris for putting all this together. [Post edited 4 May 2021 9:06]

I had the Oxford one. Hopefully no booster required but if needed I will take my turn.
Very grateful for the NHS. | |

I had a reaction to the second one but not the first!
It wasn't that bad though, tiredness, hovering headache & general lethargy (not too much change then!) for circa 5 days.
I will willingly suffer that for the protection given me! | | | |

Mrs FB is having her second on Wednesday and I'm a couple of weeks later. Both had Astra and had about a day of feeling a bit of colour, after the first one. Mrs FB has also had 'rotator cuff' in her shoulder and is having to do daily self physio for several months.
Both of us have had several jabs over the years, Yellow Fever, Tetanus etc. We were surprised how high in the shoulder this jab is given and that there wasn't any blood. Other jabs we have had seem to have been a bit lower on the upper arm and usually required a small plaster to protect the clothes. | | | |

Was it the Pfizer? I heard that you're more likely to get a stronger reaction with the second one for that and the first one for AZ. I hope that's true as I had a tiny reaction with my first one, the AZ. Mind you I had Covid moderately badly, so that may affect it? |  | | |

I'm just back home from Millennium Point in Birmingham where I had my 2nd jab. As some of you will know, today is Star Wars Day (May the Fourth be with you). It was great to see some of the NHS staff and volunteers wearing themed Star Wars outfits, to celebrate the day. My injection was given to me by none other than.....wait for it, wait for it........JABBER THE HUTT!!!!
Who said dad jokes are rubbish? (the bit about me getting my 2nd jab is all true, as for the rest of it.....) |  | | |

There goes that's theory then! Seems like the reactions are a very individual thing. | | | |
