Reply to: Mega Virus DOOM vaccination doesn't work on SA variant

Or Republican senators, got his on 18/12. All these people in power now saying that they'll delay giving the second booster might have some egg on their faces:

Expected isn't it? i.e. the vaccine doesn't stop you getting infected or spreading it, it's aim is to stop you getting it severely as the immune system will be prepped ready for it.

So all those front line staff getting the vaccine is so they can continue working, not to stop them spreading it. Though if it reduces symptoms such as cough then it's harder to spread.

US Representative Kevin Brady, the top Republican on the House of Representatives tax-writing Ways and Means Committee, said on Tuesday that he had tested positive for coronavirus weeks after receiving a first dose of the Pfizer Inc COVID-19 vaccine

Life. You aren't getting out of this alive.

Nigerian variant of covid is causing more sever symptoms.

I bet it also sends an email and asks to transfer money to a nigerian prince.

Who is "they", what is "it"? Can you link to a trustworthy medical source, not someone talking about someone else's views on Twitter?

Let's not talk about "them"

They ain't sure means it does not work in vitro, but they can't be certain it won't miraculously still work in real bodies.

That doesn't say "it doesn't work" it says "they aren't sure". And there are many vaccinations so it may be some work well and others don't.

Good thing mRNA tech is much more easily adjustable than classic vaccines.

In UK from mid-December 2020 you had to keep your birds on due to bird flu.

On what?

We spent a happy rainy weekend rebuilding our outdoor run, just what we wanted to be crawling around in muck. Half my tools are still caked in ****.

[SueEllen]

it may take a few months more to create vaccine for SA variant if it really takes off. So that's 2021 sorted.

another doom in progress
In India there are large number of birds dying due to bird flu.

According to one of the government's scientific advisers, the reason for
@MattHancock
's "incredible worry" about the South African Covid-19 variant is that they are not as confident the vaccines will be as effective against it as they are for the UK's variant.

That doesn't say "it doesn't work" it says "they aren't sure". And there are many vaccinations so it may be some work well and others don't.

More risk of dying of suicide than covid if under 50.

Too many bedwetters scared of their own shadow advising the muppet show, aka government. Isolate the truly vulnerable until they get a vaccine and the rest of us take responsibility for our own health and future, it's called being adults. I'd sign a waiver that I won't trouble the NHS unless in a life or death situation. They'll be less busy with that approach than all the malingerers piling into A&E with a stubbed toe during normal times.

Loads of under 50s are infected and in hospital. I know two neighbours under 25 who died of c-19. The main point of a lockdown is to ease pressure on the hospitals. There are too many selfish c***s who don't follow the rules and are causing the spread of the virus. It's OK for you until your son or daughter dies of covid.

So how long do we go on like this, living as though the purpose of life is to avoid death?

Worth it, if this is what we have to look forward to.
