Coronavirus (COVID-19)


Recommended Posts

This raises an interesting point. Would it not be better to avoid 'wasting' a vaccine dose on someone who is known to already have had Covid, meaning we could protect the vulnerable groups in less time?
Wouldn't checks like that simply slow the vaccination process down ? Also the ONS stat isn't confirmed cases it's an estimate of the total number of infections within the community. Using confirmed cases the element of herd immunity out running vaccination seems a bit fanciful.

Let's just getting jabbing everyone as planned.

This is unbelievable, they should be put to back of Queue

Absolutely, f**k them, one chance to be injected, refuse it and it's recorded as a refusal and you've had your chance will stop this I instantly. Also reporting of shite like this really isn't helpful.

I’ve decided to close our businesses until the 1st of February.  We’re restricted in what we can do so it makes more sense.

This ‘lockdown’ is nothing like the March one, it might reduce transmission but I cannot see it being as effective given the number of businesses still operating.

That's my birthday 😀

This is a bit unfair as a policy, there are plenty of valid reasons why someone might not want a vaccine now but might later - particularly relating to pregnancy and breastfeeding, where there is conflicting advice.

I don't see why. Shouldn't take a computer long to remove CHI numbers for those who have tested positive from the database of CHI numbers who are considered vulnerable.

I'm assuming your CHI number is linked to (positive) Covid test results here tbf, as I've not had one I don't know if that is the case.

That Paul Williams refusal article has didn't happen written all over it. 

On the off chance it is true, back of the line for the refusers. Progress should not be impeded and if they delay, f**k them. Unless there's a very good reason for delaying, but "foreign vaccines" is not one of them.

The media seem determined to get fitba stopped judging by the last couple of days briefing.

Tommy McLean's Hearts side of 94/95 never managed it, so pretty bold of the media to think they can.

Obviously they are legitimate, country of origin isn't. I doubt you would be called if pregnant at least I hope NHS records would work that way.

Pregnant and breastfeeding healthcare workers are able to get the vaccination if they wish, but have to make a personal choice on the risk of infection versus the risk of there being a complication with the vaccine.

Correct.

Indeed. The maw seems very confrontational for some reason. Perhaps angry because she’s being pulled up for breaking the covid rules? The dad seems very sheepish and almost resigned to having been rumbled too. 

I thought the dad looked pretty boozy

So my Wife (Front line health worker) got jabbed today in St Andrews Community Hospital.  Suprisingly with the Pfizer Vaccine but Hey Ho.  

Just to show you how "flexible" the booking system currently is.

It rebooked  her 2nd Jab automatically for  the 30th March.   

She then pointed out she is out of the Country from 29th March to 5th April (Another Story)

No problem you might think as this is all 11-12 weeks down the line.

Fife NHS Computer says cant get you an earlier 2nd Jab appointment.

Fife NHS Computer says can't jab you after 2nd April because it is outside the 12 week limit.

Fife NHS Computer can get to fuckk
