SOME science say 2 jabs 21 days apart. England’s Chief and Deputy Chief Medical Officers say it’s acceptable to extend the 21 day interval for the greater good of getting some level of protection which prevents serious complications into people. My choice is to go with JVT, I think he talks a...

Just remind me how this dovetails into JVT’s delayed second vaccination advice? My sourdough starter hasn’t risen. ******* Tory bastards.

Like you, I’m not a medical professional. Like you, I’m not qualified to say who is right and who is wrong. England’s Deputy Chief Medical Officer (and the Chief Medical Officer) have said delaying the second dose in order to maximise the number of people who can be protected from...

Yes, that’s right OG, doctors are all part of the facist takeover plot. They had to stop JVT appearing on The Coronavirus Show in a Nazi uniform. He’s a student of Josef Mengele you know.

Yes, JVT is an influenza specialist and England’s Deputy Chief Medical Officer. I have faith in what he says. Harold Shipman, OGs preferred source for medical information, was a serial killer.

If you think JVT is the ghost of Harold Shipman, you’d better make that hat 10 SWG.

I believe that you require a tinfoil hat constructed from a heavier gauge material. May I suggest 16 SWG? Those communist space rays are penetrating deep this morning. Chill out, you are safe now, JVT says so. Trust him, he’s a doctor.

I think we need to make something clear. Nobody is saying that after one vaccine shot you are protected from catching Covid. You need the second vaccination for that. After one shot, the strong indication is you won’t go into hospital or die. You can still get the virus though, but it won’t...

Because during the trials nobody died after receiving one dose. Not a single person, fact. Giving one dose to each person means that the rate of protecting people from death is two times what it would have been had each person had been given two doses. Two times! It’s a very simple...

I wonder if Trump will try and nuke China before America swears in its first dying man as president?

The 3000 who didn’t show up?

I know that people aren’t turning up because a friend who works at a vaccination centre told me so, it’s not uncommon. An old lady near me didn’t go because it was too far. If I know of one case there will be more. Nobody is missing out, it’s just a case of utilising available capacity to the...

The same happened near me. A few van loads of cops went down and received a vaccination. I think they should be on the priority list along with teachers and other similar occupations.

We are prioritising the more vulnerable groups first. Look at it like this: Say for example we had capacity to vaccinate 10000 people per hour, but for various reasons only 7000 per hour from the priority groups were presenting themselves for vaccination. That leaves a spare vaccination...

That’s excellent news. This is a global effort. The more vaccine that is available, the better as far as I’m concerned.

But again, the trial results indicate that the risk of severe symptoms requiring hospitalisation is virtually zero. I think we need to agree upon what a win is. In my view it’s not dying or developing long Covid. The AZ vaccine addresses both, so I consider it a winner. Of course there will be...

You should back that statement up by giving your vaccination slot to someone else then. If the risk to the unvaccinated person is so vanishingly small, you will have absolutely nothing to worry about. Go and join Jeremy Corbyn’s brother on one of his anti-lockdown demonstrations.

It’s not ideal, we agree on that. Two options exist. Option 1) Inject one person with two doses and do nothing with the second. The vaccinated person has a 95% chance of not feeling poorly. The second person risks death and / or hospitalisation. Option 2) Inject both people with one dose...

Contrast Germany with New Zealand or France or Italy with New Zealand. They all do worse. That’s because New Zealand only has two people and four sheep living on it. I agree, our government has done very badly in terms of handling the pandemic. Over the last seven days, we have the highest...

It’s a lot more than any other EU country and one of the best vaccination rates in the world. That’s ok in my view.
