I’ve had a stressful day then got increasingly anxious as the vaccine appointment got closer ... got stuck in a flaming traffic jam going there .. then the petrol warning light came on on the motorway.... they even queried why I had been offered it being healthy and under 65 so my wife had to explain to situation

Scarf moment as I thought they were gonna refuse me .. ( it had already been cancelled last week ) !

Oh well I should be fairly well protected in three weeks ... sadly the pupils ALL return in 12 days ...

I’m gonna immerse myself into researching just how soon the Pfizer vaccine actually kicks in .. the main nurse who was giving out all the key information and answering everyone’s questions said to be really careful for the next two to three weeks then I should be 70% protected ( I thought it was nearer to 85% but never mind) .

So If she’s suggesting 70% after TWO to three weeks I should hopefully have at least SOME cover by the 8th March ( in 12 days ) when 1300 pupils return to school

Apparently it is 14 for younger people up to 21 as you progress in age I’m so glad you decided to take the vaccine Zizu x and good advice from Bots, just say you got pinged on the app and have to isolate for 10 days that should see you right

I was thinking there should be some cover from day one .. building gradually as the days go by ??

Great news Zizu....hope you feel a little reassured now

great news zizu, and if you are worried you could always take a few days sick till you get up to 3 weeks It may well be worth it for your mental health

I have been considering something along those lines ... the headmaster suggested I sign on the sick when we returned in January but I didn’t want to let anyone down ...

If you have to have the vaccine to do things, such as travel and attend venues, does that mean the immune system stuff is all bollox and they need to stop with the keeping fit and healthy propaganda and start advertising things like cigs again?

Not Alf thinking that overweight people having heart attacks has anything at all to do with the immune system

My wife has her booking through for her 2nd Pfizer dose so I *assume* they still have stock for that, if they're sending out the appointments

Israel has now vaccinated 85% of its population

They set up vaccination centres in bars and clubs and offered younger vaccine hesitants a shot for a shot, what a great idea

yes i saw that on tuesday evening in germany's talk show Markus Lanz on ZDF

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

...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.....

I'm having my jab tomorrow afternoon. Hoping to get the pfizer variety.

Why do you want the pfizer?
