Coronavirus (COVID-19)

[ClathyDave]

It’s been roughly 48 hours since I got my first dose of AZ and I’m back to feeling normal now. Friday night was a shiter though! A wee headache turned into a fever that messed with my temperature all night,  started the evening shivering like a wet dug, before turning into a furnace. Not too many side effects yesterday, just a slight headache and some sore joints but I was a bit knackered during the day. Feeling pretty fresh now so I can’t grumble.  My fiancée in Ohio received her Pfizer jag on Friday too, she’s had no side effects apart from a bit of a sore arm for a few hours. 
 

Now just waiting for the pubs too open

Some deeply sociopathic comments in the press today by people who need sectioned. I despise these public health weirdos thinking they have the power to micromanage the population. Can only hope people will simply move on and not comply once they have had their vaccine.

The problem is that the police just wait and pick people off to fine them once they're in smaller groups, but yes I hope there's a consensus where they're told to fucking do one.

There is probably a D Notice on reporting on UK vaccine side effects.

I wish there was a D notice on reporting your posts.

Meadows absolutely bouncing today with mass gatherings. Good to see people taking it into their own hands and ignoring the ludicrous 4 from 2 outdoors rules.

I was in the Botanic Gardens in Glasgow on Friday and it was busy, but there were only a couple of groups of more than 4.

A more in depth unbiased report from Chile from a real News outlet confirms that the vaccine is having a real effect on stopping serious illness and hospitalisations on the over 70's and those already inoculated, unlike the BBC's scaremongering half a story.

They also reckon they won't see the real benefits until 80% plus have had the vaccine.

So still all good and the vaccines do indeed seem to work.

I didn't sleep great last night after getting the AZ vaccine yesterday afternoon.

I had aches in my joints this morning, but nothing severe.  I'm pretty much feeling ok now.  Can't complain.

I suspect Armadale was even bouncier.  In need of water cannon to be fair.

This is Armadale. I fkn hate Rangers fans. They're the worst people in Scotland.

Nah. It's only those bloody foreigners that make bad variants.

PKC’s issues are linked directly to 200 pupils isolating and another outbreak at that factory in Coupar Angus. Hopefully next to none community infections.

That  Turkey Twizzler factory should be shut down by PHS for a second outbreak.

You would be correct.
It now raises serious questions as to how they’ve fucked up not once but 3 times.

You're definitely angling for a boot in the pie.

Cheers bar in greenock, open today.

Apparently that's a sun photographer on scene.

 

The infamous Cheers bar in Greenock, one year ago today. The first Saturday when pubs were shut and Johnson was still 2 days away from announcing the nationwide lockdown.

Random Guy also produced this incredible post.
