Just one question. How can it be a replica?Oh ye of little faith
The meaning of REPLICA is an exact reproduction (as of a painting) executed by the original artist.
Brexit, for once some facts.

I mentioned crazy petrol prices the other day. This was in Western Telegraph:
21p a litre difference is an order of magnitude bigger than they have been in previous times.
- Morrisons Haverfordwest – 189.9p for unleaded/194.9p for diesel
- Llanteg Service Station – 179.9p for unleaded/191.9p for diesel
- Asda Pembroke Dock – 175.7p for unleaded/183.6p for diesel
- Pelcomb Service Station – 173.9p for unleaded/187.9p for diesel
- Kiln Park Service Station – 168.9p for unleaded/183.9p for diesel
21p a litre difference is an order of magnitude bigger than they have been in previous times.
That precise meaning bit the dust almost as soon as it was established.
Replica has long been used interchangeably with reproduction (the action or process of copying something). For example lots of people have replica cars unconnected with the original maker but no-one says they have a reproduction car.
.
Even of you allow much flexibility in accuracy or the process, the point remains, it needs an original to have existed.
You can't have a replica Oyster De Luxe Roadster. However skilled you are.
You didn't make it clear that was the point you were making. While I fully agree there was no original in my opinion, there are millions who dont agree.
.
There are large numbers who would be prepared to kill you for such heretical assumptions.Although obviously incorrect, I assumed it was obvious.

Do bears shittim the wood?There are large numbers who would be prepared to kill you for such heretical assumptions.

And on another tack, I feel a bit on the smug side. Our local reservoir has a capacity of 10,500 million litres. Which should see us through. But I don't know how far its water can be piped.
Well, having bought into the existence of an ark (a flood, and jehovah, the insecure punitive nutter of the old testament who slaughter millions for causing him offence) I imagine its down to quantum entanglement (and exists and doesn't exist)?There are large numbers who would be prepared to kill you for such heretical assumptions.
.
Lots of us are suffering drought, parched land and dried up river beds, all due to global warming.
In a few months time we'll all be looking at the news of huge areas of land and buildings flooded by those dried up rivers overflowing, all due to global warming.
Global warming really needs to make its mind up.

Living where I do my despair for the human race gets reinforced by their religious inclinations.
Back in 1960 the developer of the estate I later moved to had planned a new C of E church, believing the local St Marys wouldn't cope with thousands of new residents. But by the time building started the collapse of the national religion back then was so complete they abandoned the planned church and replaced it with more homes and shops.
Mammon 1, God 0, so very promising at the time.
Though that wasn't to last, since worse happened since. On a nearby site a new ultra modern church was built, the Church of Latter Day Saints (Mormon) which seems very well attended ever since.
Then even closer, the site of a former school for disabled children was bought by the Jehovah's Witnesses who constructed FIVE of their Kingdom Halls on the site with parking for hundreds of cars. Again that was packed with cars and huge numbers of people each Saturday and often other days as well.
Also in recent decades there's been an explosion in the number of the low churches, sort of "sing-song and hand over your money" centres mainly attended by the expanding black population.
One bright spot is that the Jehovah's Witnesses seem to have turned themselves into property developers, selling their Kingdom Halls to cash in on the property boom. That is now happening to this set of five here, but unfortunately a covenant on the site means it can only go to religious use.
Undeterred though, they've sold it to an obscure Islamic sect for well over £5 millions. It seems we just can't get away from religion, instead making it ever more weird.
.
In years to come, maybe it will be like much of Wales? Chapels put up for decreasingly remembered, ever more obscure sects, cults, or whatever you call them, now so often converted to other uses.
Hopefully. Much will depend on today's young. Previously over the last 70 or so years they've tended to drop religion when they reach their teens and drift away from their parents, but numbers must have been returning to it in their older years to have those weirder religious elements I mentioned sustained as they are.
Today's most obvious object of worship by the young to middle aged seems to be their ever present smartphone, though whether that is an improvement is debateable.
.
Sounds eminently sensible!
Although I will confess that I myself haven't deliberately been ignoring 'the rest', its just that pretty much all the stuff out there seems to refer to VAERS and that alone (with just a little bit of the UK yellow card data thrown in now and again, although that seems to have gone quiet in the last few months. Not sure why that is)
I will try and do some searching and see if I can find equivalent data for other countries. I would have thought it was out there. Somewhere. If anyone has some good links - drop them in a reply!
I didn't mean it as a dig at you. Rather, it seems the standard everywhere I have looked.
Some hints as to where to look - but they are not vaccine-specific:
Outside the UK
There are other routes outside the UK. For example, the USA's FDA has a reporting mechanism.
EU
The European Medicines Agency (EMA) handles reports for centrally licensed products – each EU country handles its own for nationally licensed products.

Then again there were millions who voted for Brexit
Which doesn't make it anything more than a bad joke.
And who will vote for Liz Truss, latest in a sequence of bad jokes.
.
Some very sensible idiotic plans here:
Liz Truss plan means lower pay for public service workers in poorer areas
Unions say favourite for PM’s job will face ‘opposition every step of the way’ if she pushes plans through
Liz Truss last night revealed plans to cut pay for public sector workers – including teachers and nurses – outside the wealthy southeast in a bid to save £11bn. Labour said the idea would sound the death-knell for the government’s “levelling-up” agenda by widening the regional income gap.
www.independent.co.uk
Will really be appreciated by, umm, no-one. (Though perhaps Wales will attract NHS staff from the west of England? If we are able to not implement a pay cut.)
(Adding)
I believe some NHS staff already prefer to work in Wales for the simple fact they do not get charged sometimes punitive parking charges at work.
