I did wonder who set that one up.... I have pointed out in other places that being an anaesthesiologist, even a really good one, doesn't mean that you know squat about immunology or virology

[Barsel]

I think perhaps people like this should keep their views to themselves as it just encourages others to think the same way.
He needs to check how many people have died because they didn't have the jabs, especially young people.

[Spicerack]

^ I think you need to check that.

[youngmafbog]

Really Barsel? So only the Government line is allowed eh? Stalin would be proud of you.

//doesn't mean that you know squat about immunology or virology//

He will undoubtedly know more than Javid and probably more than some of the commy behavioural 'scientists' in Sage.

[dannyk13]

As he is unvaccinated himself he should keep his mouth shut.

[youngmafbog]

Why Danny? Another one Stalin would be proud of.

[dannyk13]

ymb, stop exaggerating.Because I post my opinion does not make me a Stalinist

[douglas9401]

Indeed. Other party lines are available.

Woofgangs reply is very interesting at 23.34 last night .

"The vaccines are reducing transmission only for about eight weeks for Delta, with Omicron it's probably less."

I hadn't heard that one before. Is it true? ("Probably" generally means "I don't know", of course.)

[MrsCheese]

looks like most of you would rather take the word of the men with shares in vaccine companies rather than actual doctors, continue to keep your heads in the sand only lifting them for your 4th jab in a month or two's time..

[Bazile]

//"I'm not happy about that," he said. "I had COVID at some point, I've got antibodies, and I've been working on COVID ICU since the beginning.

"I have not had a vaccination, I do not want to have a vaccination. The vaccines are reducing transmission only for about eight weeks for Delta, with Omicron it's probably less. //

Better not show Nailit that

[Peter Pedant]

and yet it is in his contract that he MUST be vaccinated against Hep B

clearly both parties werent aware of that

[jno]

rather take the word of the men with shares in vaccine companies rather than actual doctors

I've taken the word of my actual doctor and been jabbed. How about you, MrsCheese?

[royfromaus]

Javid looked clueless and tried to patronise the doctor.
I can see the government backing down on this.

[royfromaus]

No 4th jab, Mrscheese

[MrsCheese]

Give it a few weeks of media chat to get people used to the idea of a fourth jab, like they did with the booster, then maybe another variant will be along to help scare people into having another dose.

[pixie374]

While I genuinely have every respect for them, even professionals are working it out as we go along, and changing advice, of course, with experience.
Mandatory, should never be a consideration, if even one person might die from a vaccine. That has to be manslaughter, surely? While, nobody is responsible for the actual virus.
Give everyone "honest" information, and let them decide.

[jno]

pixie, if I had to go into hospital I might like to know if my doctors and nurses had been jabbed, given the number of Covid cases that hapapen on medical premises. But I fear there's not the slightest chance I'd be told.

[pixie374]

Personally, jno, I wouldn't give a monkeys who had been jabbed. I would be more reassured knowing they were all negative.
