Covid vaccinations - the legacy?

[Robus]

As a fully vaccinated old git, I'm quite pleased with it. My last vac was before Xmas, and I managed to catch Covid in the pub last Friday - from a spreader **** who has refused to get jabbed...

2+2 =?

A rough day with a very sore throat followed so I gargled with Listerine, took some Lemsips and TBH it's been pretty much like flu since, getting better as the week has gone on.
Given the fact that I've had a heart attack in the past I was ****ting myself but the vaccine has undoubtedly kept it manageable. Job done.

Hi.

So you caught a virus from another person as you have done since you were born but media has told you you now catch a virus off a "spreader"?

Are non vaccinated people really that evil?

You can’t come on here Wanderlust saying stuff like that , these lot will have you - the vaccines don’t work are useless and do more damage than good , thought you’d know that and if you’ve been vaccinated your an outcast.

Not with me by the way - Just thought I’d tell you before BT gets on at you about how daft youv e been

"England’s Latest Covid Wave Peaks Without Masks or Restrictions (Again)"

"England’s latest Covid outbreak was slowing down a fortnight ago, according to official data from the ONS, as it once again peaks without masks or restrictions. Analysts behind the country’s most trusted surveillance project, ran by the Office for National Statistics, estimate 3.14 million people were infected on July 13th – up only 9% on the previous week’s estimate. For comparison, the surge logged last Friday was roughly a third. Cautious statisticians said it’s “too early to say” if the wave is peaking. But public health experts claimed the worst is likely over, given that the mass-testing survey is “always two or three weeks behind the epidemic curve”. Separate NHS England figures shows admissions actually began to fall 10 days ago."

Fascinating post, could I ask,

1} How do you know where you caught it, and how do you know who you caught it from ?
2) How do you know the vaccine kept it manageable ?

"Happy Mondays star Shaun Ryder reveals his tragic brother’s last moments before their mum found him dead".

"HAPPY Mondays frontman Shaun Ryder insists he will still be struggling to come to terms with the sudden death of his brother when they play their first Scots gig without him next month. Bass player Paul Ryder was discovered dead in his bed by their mum Linda last week just hours before they were due to play the Kubix Festival in Sunderland. He was 58.
Last night Shaun said: “Our kid was pure rock and roll. He would have wanted us to go on without him. So it’s really not hit me yet, as I sort of slow process things. When me dad died it was a full year before it hit me as I had me mam to look after. It’s the same thing now as my attention is on her and not really focused on our kid. But it will hit me at some point.”

Paul and Shaun, 59, who were raised by their nurse mum and postie dad Derek, are hailed as pioneers of Manchester’s indie scene after merging rock music with rave. However, as Paul struggled with heroin addiction the brothers fell out in the early 1990s. He later rejoined the group in 2012 when the original line-up got back together and had been based in Los Angeles for years.

But Shaun reveals his little brother fell ill after returning from The States for the summer festival season. He says: “It’s a mad one as he does that flight all the time from LA to here. But the day before he got on the flight he had to have that covid booster injection in The States. He lands and starts complaining about this headache. It was murdering him. Our mam wanted him to go to A&E but he said ‘no I’ve got to go to rehearsals’. So he gets to rehearsals and he can’t recognise any of the band. He can’t recognise the drummer Gaz or anyone."

“He lives in LA but when we play shows he flies in and comes and stays at me mam’s in Salford. So he goes home and takes some more painkillers and stuff because his head’s murdering him. “Then me mam goes in his room at 6am and he was gone, rigor mortis had set in.” He adds: “When the ambulance came they said it looked like it had been a blood clot or a brain tumour, but it’s just weird that he’d had that Covid booster the day before."

Booster jab, blood clot, all sounds very familiar. Quite ironic really, a heroin addict, a lifetime of drug abuse, but it looks like a booster jab has seen him off in a couple of days.

My wife has just had covid again,all she had was a sniffle,but because we were supposed to be having our 2yr old grandson see tested herself and was positive. Looks like covid is anything from a sniffle to something horrendous.

Not sure about anywhere else Alfie but the ICU at Royal Bolton does not have a Covid patient in sight. Herd immunity has taken hold it seems.

If you are going bald and can't get a hard on, you now know why and a fat lot of good the vaccination did you...
