...you so deserve a little break, Zizu...you haven’t been ticked off that list just quite yet.....I’m so pleased that you’ve had your first vaccine, though.....at least you can tick that one thing off...go on, just do it, cross it off and take that one layer away so that you can make room for another to replace it.....

some of Markus's guests that evening, one virologist (whom is a close friend of Dr Fauci) he said the nation should vaccinate as much people as we can with every pfizer dose we currently got, something they can do until CureVac hopefully soon receives the green light

+ all guests there confirmed that Germany must follow Israel's approach as for vaccination program


also was highlighted that with vaccination passport movie theatres would be able to reopen again, music festivals would be possible again, more or less normal life returning, the guests (and all of them either medical or scientific experts) also said it might be a passport but this one can be seen as your ticket to all your freedom and normal life which makes this a very valuable piece of paperwork

I think vaccine hesitancy will go out the window as it will be required for normal life to resume, so even though the vaccine isn't mandatory it kind of is if you see what I mean

Its being reported in some papers today that both France and Germany are telling their citizens now that they should accept the Oxford vaccine to avoid a third wave.....Macron needs to admit to spreading misinformation if he wants to repair the damage he did to the takeup of Oxford

Germany now got more information on Oxford/AZ thx to the scottish research, just what they wanted since there were some uncertainties at first

so now they got AZ, Pfizer and soon CureVac i think so thats 3


France idk, maybe they heard this news too via EU

Well, fingers crossed the damage is not irreparable and they start ramping up their vaccinations now.

We realy need a vaccine that stops you getting it fullstop.

That said, they are doing the best with what they can.

It's not exactly the same really, antibiotics attack bacterial infections directly whereas a vaccine "teaches" the immune system how to fight a virus itself. I think theoretically, it will always be possible to vaccinate against any viral strain, the problem is more that constantly researching and updating vaccines to roll out year after year is really not ideal. Think of what's gone into orchestrating it just once.

If they want to avoid a third wave they need to get vaccinating people. The EU is way behind.

Macron has just been on TV saying he would take the AZ vaccine

1,000,000 doses of AZ unused in Germany, ship them elsewhere?

Huge Belgian vaccination centre that can vaccinate 5,000 a day empty as they are waiting on vaccine, won't use AZ

If they have a third wave they only have themselves to blame.

Angela Merkel, the German chancellor has said she will not take the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine because at 66 she is older than the upper age limit for it.

The German authorities have not approved the vaccine for people over 65.

Thomas Mertens, head of STIKO, Germany’s standing commission on vaccines, said the country had hoarded 1.4 million vaccine doses because of its reluctance to take jab. He also said that Germany’s refusal to approve the AstraZeneca vaccine for people over 65 was “partially to blame”.

Last month President Macron, the French leader, compounded the reputational damage to AstraZeneca’s vaccine by saying it seemed “quasi-ineffective” for older people.

Only 200 people out of 3,800 turned up for appointments for the AstraZeneca vaccine

when though? why not ship them to countries where they will be taken up now?

or turn the vaccination programme round and start with the younger people maybe

[Nicky91]

because they paid for those doses

they are still thinking which age group to give them to, doing more research

aren't they approved for up to age 65 in Germany?

[Santa's NaughtiNess]

They just realised that they need the vaccine to get out of this.
After they said that it wasn't safe

Do not wreck this now, JVTs stark message

It’s too early to relax even if vaccinated
