No.

I don't think that even needs elaboration.

Is a booster just a third vaccine, or is it watered down a bit?

I presumed it was slightly modified to provide cover against the newer strains

That's a very clever thing to do. Especially in such a short space of time.

bots 27-10-2021 07:45 PM

there is nothing modified about the booster vaccines. It would require a new trial phase and a new approval process and there just isnt the time for that. There are plenty years ahead for new versions of vaccines

So it's just a 3rd vaccine jab then?

After the governments, and everyone elses scientific experts, confidently told us we would only need 2!!

We would only need 2 of these jabs, 2 of these vaccines they have managed to find in 8 or so months..they told us 2 after testing people for a few weeks. 2 they told us, 2 of the miracle find was all that was needed....

Now its 3? And they want everyone to keep taking it, even the young and non vulnerable!!

Yet people get up in arms at people refusing to take all these jabs, and have been for a long time now....




Also, do you have to wear a mask to do karaoke in a pub in Scotland?

they have always said they didnt know how long the jab would provide immunity for. Boosters have always been on the table, so i don't know where you get your information

The booster is for over 50s and vulnerable only

People thinking that booster jabs after vaccination is “weird” really is peak 2021. It’s not “strange” to get an immunisation booster shot ffs. It’s been a completely normal aspect of immunisation schedules since vaccination was discovered. Just stop it.

GoldHeart 28-10-2021 04:22 AM

What I didn't realise is both the flu jab and the booster can be done on the same day, I thought that would be too much for 1 person to have.

Well, they do measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) all in one jab, and give it to toddlers, so I guess not surprising that two together is fine. They also do various travel vaccines on the same day and some of those are for much nastier things than Covid or flu.

On fully tested vaccines and fully tested immunisation boosters.

Netherlands: nice to share percentage numbers of how many of the population here vaccinated

87% that is really good :clap1:


but now here is about to begin with the booster jabs, again oldest first and slowly going down to youngest
