Light at the end of the tunnel - Covid [vaccine news]
 

I’ll settle for not having the threat of death hanging over me ..


The editor of the Lancet has just tried to calm things down a little .. he mentioned that whilst Matt Hancock has said the ‘cavalry’ has arrived in fact it’s just the ‘horses’ as the real challenge will be to get the 16 million at risk over 60’s vaccinated with their first jab by Easter .. roughly one million per week . ( 90% of uk deaths were over 60’s)

He says it’s a hell of a task , something never been done before on such a scale and It will mean surgeries , pharmacies and even schools administering the jabs ..

Yet we were told they can can produce 2 million doses per week ?!?!

( even that would take us around 25 weeks to make a substantial difference)

I was foolishly thinking that there’d at least be a stockpile of the vaccine ready and waiting) .

they will only manufacture a small stockpile of the vaccine until it is approved. The oxford vaccine is much easier to manufacture so it will be ramped up in the new year. They are doubling the number of vaccinations possible by giving everyone the first dose rather than 2 ... that makes a huge difference to hospitalisations and deaths

So are you taking the vaccine Zizu?

Wouldn’t it be nice if they put a positive spin on that number for a change or is it too much to ask! No they want the public squawking that the sky is falling 8n at every opportunity :laugh:

"Yet we were told they can produce 2 million doses per week ?!?!"


Yes Typical Conservative Spin.

Well apparently I can’t take the existing vaccine even if I’m offered it ( allergic reactions ) so I just hope I get offered the Oxford one before I contract the damn thing ..

If I rejected the existing one would I automatically go to the end of the queue ?

In the press conference today they revised the advice for people with allergies, you can take both as long as you are not allergic to the specific ingredients

Allergies – anyone with a previous history of allergic reactions to the ingredients of the vaccine should not receive it, but those with any other allergies such as a food allergy can now have the vaccine.’

The 2nd Vaccine (after your 1st Vaccine)
is Now going to be up to 12 weeks later.


This not being done by the Government
By the Vaccine people.

Ref: Ch4HDnews.

This is not new Arista, when the Oxford vaccine was approved yesterday, they advised that the vaccine worked better if the time between first and second doses was longer than 3 weeks but less than 12. As the vaccine has stopped hospitalisation 10 days after the first jab, it allows us to protect more people quicker

Phew ... that’s a relief ... although 500,000 people are supposedly wondering when they will actually be getting their second jab .. plus apparently all the ‘modelling’ was done on the basis of a three week gap between doses NOT a 12 week one

I think those 500,000 are the Pztzier vaccine which is entirely different, I think the technique for that may be the same of 4 weeks? Not entirely sure

Yes but it is a Topic on many
News and Live debates, today

Spin doctoring; a 3 month wait between first and second dose is a disaster and we have no idea if it will create effective long-term immunity. They're taking the verified test data and saying "Umm nah we're going to try something else"... and many GP surgeries are actually refusing to follow the "new advice".

It's likely to end up with people needing a 3rd dose or even needing to restart the entire process, in an environment of limited supply.

Utter mess.

Sky are saying it’s the Pztzier vaccine that they are talking about ... and it’s one million not 500,000 that will have their second jab delayed by 9 weeks

Pztzier are apparently washing their hands of things ... saying all their models and data were based on the 21 day gap and they didn’t test any longer than that
