Not ideal by any means but cheaper and more feasible than hotel quarantine. That was shorthand for South East Asia. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well once everyone has had 2 who the f**k is left? As soon as the second jabs are over with people will immediately require third jabs.

What token 'baseline measures' will they keep in place? Full reopening, basing this on the lack for restrictions on crowds at disneyland (who held back themselves on the limits California had given them) and full baseball stadia (as the summer american sport its a good indicator) San diego Padres are going full stadium along with the others in Cali and thats an area which was a bit more pro-newsom than others. Its real, its happening and for some fucking reason we are still fucking about. 1 minute ago, GiGi said: That was shorthand for South East Asia.

Detournement Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 11 hours ago, Donathan said: No, JCVI advice is that the AZ is much less risky than actually getting covid but that when virus prevalence is low, it would be preferable to wait a few weeks and get a different vaccine when it is offered. As covid rates increase, there's a bigger risk of actually catching covid on a day-to-day basis if you're unvaccinated. Covid itself has a much higher rate of blood clots in all age groups than the Oxford vaccine. If prevalence continues to increase and the AZ vaccine is the one we have a glut of then it may well be that the JCVI revise their advice. The thing about that is the JCVI are advising on the basis of an average person that doesn't actually exist and on UK averages is overweight. It seems a bit daft to weigh personalised risk by a mean score of vulnerability across a decade long cohort comprising millions of people rather than by individual health. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the USA get taken off the "list" as part of some back room deal then I can't see ANYONE following the quarantine instructions for European countries and I'd expect a flood of bookings to Europe, myself among them !! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Third jabs/boosters for the vulnerable groups will then become boosters for all adults, then boosters for teens/children/babies in the womb/pets/houseplants.

Blair was talking about an interanationally integrated vaccine passport system on Sunday. Quote It is therefore critical that individuals are able to prove their vaccine status. In this paper, we set out the digital health pass infrastructure that will need to be introduced to enable an individual to prove their vaccine status. This goes beyond the current NHS App: a globally interoperable system of health passes is required to allow citizens to prove their status in a secure, privacy-preserving way. The health pass needs to be usable both by national border authorities and other organisations within countries. I -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ekhibee88 Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Had my first dose of the vaccine yesterday at the Hydro. There was a queue, but only a 20 minute wait. Got the Pfizer. Few people were chancing their arm by turning up on spec for a jab but were told no. Only a slight sore arm. After I went to Edinburgh, lots of English tourists. Did hear a French Couple but they may live here. Seen a group of Asian tourists outside a Holiday Inn, cant imagine they don't stay in the UK. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
