    They haven't said what jab I will be getting, there is a lot of information they don't give you.
    If it makes all you oldies who want to live forever sleep easier I'm having it.

    still going to get that jab?
    Who are the ‘They’ ? Anyone can say anything particularly on social media please don’t spout cobblers without backing it up. The WHO say it’s good for all age groups, as does our chief medical officer, so whoever this ‘They’ are do nothing but spread panic and confusion which is not helping us get out of this mess.

That to me tells me what I need to know.
    I would rather read and listen the the World Health Organisation rather than experts such as yourself Regis.

    They said today Oxford Astra Zeneca is safe for all ages. Even the EU medical experts have sanctioned its use.

    Anyone who listens to you ahead of them need to question themselves why!

    Don't worry Yarm, anyone who believes the bollox spouted on this forum about the vaccine surely needs far more medication than just a jab! The last two sentences of the original post tells you all you need to know about the knowledge of the posters.

    Received my invitation this morning. I have already been picked at random to take part in a test to see whether I already am carrying antibodies ie have had it. I have done this. Today’s letter also enclosed another randomly picked invitation to take part in a study to monitor the safety and side effects of the vaccine. Lucky me.

    Anyone else think that the current numbers (approx 500,00 per day) will be the top end of capabilities. If it is should be easier to work out when others will be due to get started/finished - Although obviously the second shot has now have to be taken into account as well

    Anybody who wants a vaccination should’ve been done in the next 100 days.

    That’s another 50 million people done.

    I said to the wife today that this has to be the last lockdown, if they try to do this again in late spring or summer there will be mutiny in a mass scale.

    The internet has caused a lot of confusion and suspicion not only concerning the vaccine but other ridiculous conspiracy theories. Such as the pandemic is a World Order plot etc. Those of a certain age on here will remember the small pox innoculations and queuing at the local doctors to get the vaccination. Then there was the TB jabs at school which we all had. There was none of this bo**ox about your balls will shrivel up or whatever. Just get the bloody jab and hopefully we can get back to some sort of normality or what we are experiencing now will become the normal.

    I don't believe in conspiracy in the vaccine itself or that they will plant a tracker in you lol, but I am sceptical about the effectiveness of the vaccine itself.
    I have been told that my second one will be in 12 week's but now a health specialist has said that is too long and six weeks should be the maximum.
    We are also hearing now that they will become an annual event as the virus keeps mutating
    I can't understand why if the people classed as vulnerable to the virus such as my wife has to wait longer than me.
    I also said that the virus will be used as an excuse to change the way we live and I still believe that.
    A lot of people and their businesses will go bust, others will make a fortune.
    Big money men will snap up failed businesses for next to nothing. The high death rates could be seen as a backdoor way of privatising part or all of the NHS.
    There is more to this than meets the eyes.
    Since the vaccine doesn't stop you getting or transmitting the disease then anyone who thinks everything will be okay once they have had it are living in fantasy land.
    As for stopping people who refuse to have it from entering certain places, surely that is breaching medical confidence?
    I can also see a lot of court cases arising through people's religious views, Jehovah's for instance.
