More sloppy lazy decisions from Boris, or should I now be looking at the decisions Chris Witty and Sir Patrick Vallance are making.

On the TV news this morning, we are the only country in the world who decided to stretch the second dose of the vaccine to 12 weeks. Here we are yet again thinking we can go against what everyone else is doing, not what it says on the tin, 3 weeks between the first dose.

The WHO and the BMA are saying if you do stretch it out, no more than 6 weeks, even then they can't be sure its right, so why not stick to what the rest of the world is doing 3 weeks.
How many more times does Boris need to be hit over the head with a sledge hammer before he gets any message RIGHT?. Its not difficult to follow the instruction that comes with the medication, play about with it and your asking for trouble, and thats just what were getting big time. Unless people get their second one, all the first ones could become void .

If Boris had two and half Lts of paint and it told you on the tin to add 10% water, he would more than likely add 10 Lts of water so he could paint more rooms, with shocking results. This bloke is off his trolly for sure.

Do his scientific advisors agree?
Tony Bliar has been advising too. I think stretching out the second dose was his idea, bit by how much I dont remember.
we could be in the EU, have a look at the graph.

Sorry, he has been advised by his scientific advisors about this, think you should look long and hard at yourself before making these comments, get your facts straight. We are way ahead of all the European countries.
If the WHO and BMA are recommending no more than a six-week gap, is that not going against "What It Says On The Tin"?

With interruptions in the manufacturing and supply of the vaccines, sticking to the three-week gap would mean fewer folk getting their first doses.
Good post Teacake , although very concerning.
Does anyone actually know if they a breeding a vaccine resistant virus by stretching out the second dose?

webbo thanks for the link. We were told that the hold up to the Pfizer vaccines in the UK was down to alterations at their production plant, to enable them to up their production. It don't make any sense to muck up the present production right in the middle of a critical stage.
I'm sure the government would have been more than happy to help fund a new plant, without disrupting the present production??

12.32 Riptide My facts are right, I' ve repeated what the news was this morning. So those are the facts!!!!
Do any of your observations come as a surprise, truly ?
UK IS not the only country: Israel have done it too.
It's in Boris's interests to extend the pandemic, it's his scapegoat/smokescreen for Brexit's calamitous impact on the country.

TCL, Your not reading my OP correctly, if you had you would not be asking the question you are asking.
Unbelievable that the U/K has the highest death rates in Europe. Then Boris comes up with this suicide plan . He needs replacing, Fast.
Question Author
Gull, his cock ups get worse!! But to be fair he has been advised to do this thats why I now question what he is being told to do by Whitty and Vallance.
TC, since the WHO and the BMA are both saying no more than six weeks, they are going against the manufacturers' advice to have three weeks gap.

You cannot have it both ways.
The reason for the delay is due to the manufactures not being able to keep up supplies.
This is on the AgeUk website.

\\ This is because the evidence shows that 1 dose of a vaccine gives significant protection in the short term, and the Government has decided to prioritise getting as many people as possible their first dose as quickly as they can. However, everyone will receive 2 doses within 12 weeks and benefit from the maximum protection of the vaccine.//
So, teacake and gulliver, what do you see wrong with that? More people getting the important first injection and still getting maximum protection at twelve weeks.
Why would AgeUK lie?
Question Author
Vulcan , Pay attention to the news today, and your question to me and gulliver will be answered.
The BMA letter? nothing new there.
