O/T. The Government's handling of Covid

[ramAnag]

There is no known thrombosis risk, and its not the government but medical regulators who are saying this, so rA we can't pin anything on the government, even if some side effect or other does arise from either the Az or Pfizer vaccines.

I’m not actually trying to ‘pin anything on the Government’, Swale. God knows we don’t want or need Covid to do that and I would love them to be successful.

I’m just uncomfortable with the idea of having to believe the likes of Johnson and Raab over something as important as vaccines when they’ve been shown to be incompetent at best, and downright liars at worst, over so many other issues.

Personally I loathe the ‘we’re alright Jack attitude’ that keeps resurfacing on here and throughout the country.
Having said that, there have, paradoxically, been some wise if contradictory words written on here, from MA’s very personal but totally reasonable reservations, to GP’s closing comment, that the ‘...potential consequences of any medication are generally no worse than the consequences of no medication’, both of which I can sympathise with.
