The General Covid19 Thread

Dan

I like it when Tory party MP’s expense their ‘moats’ with tax payers money.

Sat outside in a London pub garden freezing with a bunch of work colleagues, necking pints. Freedom rarely tasted so good

Dan

Might need something stronger after tonight’s result.

Just had the Moderna… should I be going out on the lash tonight?

Jules72 Just had the Moderna… should I be going out on the lash tonight?

Doesn’t it take a couple of weeks to reach full efficacy?

Jules72

bosstrabs yeah…. I was going anyway….thinking more whether it interacts in any way with alcohol

Just attended a regional meeting planning for 3rd wave in September. Amongst other things that irritate me has got to be the concept we will be green lighting arrivals from America and India- the countries 2nd and 3rd to Brazil with the highest number of variants (while red lighting Pakistan and Bangladesh). It doesn’t matter if the vaccination rate in a country is high, if you have a high number of cases and variants and you green light them in without isolation you’re asking for trouble.

Wasily That’s cheered me up no end.

Wasily exactly..coincidentally I fired off an angry email (my first in months) to my mp this morning about exactly this… so shockingly idiotic…. the reply I got back blames the border police. To which I replied, no, that these countries are not on the red list is the fault of the government. Not sure if this is an avoidance tactic of her own or politicians generally - not accepting any blame.. it’s like some sort of mental illness.

Thought you’d all be excited to see me.

Wasily FFS. We’re almost certainly heading for another wave aren’t we.

Jules72 Who’s your MP?

Loved the bit where she said ““what do you expect us to do… close the borders?”…. erm

Jules72

vinnyt77 Stephen Hammond… it’s his wife who answers emails

The largest p1 outbreak outside of Brazil…

Just home from jab number one. It was the dreaded AZ. Had a wank there and some diarrhea came out. Apart from that all seems good so far. If I die tonight I love you all.

THE GREAT BRITISH VACCINE

Homegrove

Looks like I don’t even have a chance of trying the AZ. They’re pretty much ruled out giving it to anyone under 65. Ditto with the J&J. I would have loved just one shot. Pfizer gives best immunity though, that’s what most are getting here.

zackster

Homegrove no access the the alpha ModeRNA?

Homegrove

That is also used here, but the volume is quite low. Pfizer seems to have the most powerful factories.

For me I’ll take any vaccine. AZ set back will probably set back Finland a month of the goal of one shot for every willing citizen over 16 by July.

zackster

If you can’t get ModeRNA I would defo be after the Pfizer.
