Just because I'm a bit paranoid. I know it's all nonsensical but people referring to it as a death jab etc does get to me

I will get it. I don't know when because if we look at how it's going right now, I probably will be vaccinated in 2034 since Macron is taking his time as if we haven't lost a lot of it already.

...I understand you feeling uncertainty, Daniel...because this whole world that we’re living has obviously created our environments to create uncertain and scary etc so that’s the place we all live in...but try not to worry about which one you’ll get because they’ll all bring us closer..(..hopefully...)...to freedoms and contact returning and a more safe and healthy world...you’ll be fine, my love and it’s a step toward what we’ve all been hoping for.....

Both Great Aunts (80+) and my sister (front line worker) have had their first dose and my Dad got the appointment letter today to go for his next week.

Getting there slowly but surely...

My Nan is having hers on Saturday. My mum is having it in a few weeks too I think. My other half is having his in a few weeks too with his sister, and when the time comes I will definitely be having it. I can see people having genuine, unselfish issues with having it but I just want this **** over and done with now.

It depends; if it turns you into an "immune carrier" I probably wouldn't bother - I don't care that much if I get Covid, but I don't want to be protected while also possibly spreading it to my family.

You could be asymptomatic without the vaccine as well so surely better to take it as for AZ at least there is evidence it reduces transmission by 2/3s? I expect other vaccines will be found to cut transmission as well

AZ got recommended in Netherlands more for the 60-65 age group, not 65+

and we want to vaccinate 65+ group probably with Moderna since that one was more recommended for elderly

Thanks Ammi.

I still feel a bit uneasy, but I will get it done, my appointment is all sorted, and I'm 26, but I work in social work

I'm more worried about the long term effects than short term

Yes. Though I highly doubt I will be offered it.

I was a bit on the fence when it seemed the point was to reduce symptoms if you catch it, and you could still spread it. Seemed very very pointless except for high risk people who have a sigificant chance of getting it badly. But given it seems to be helping to stop the spread, yeah. Balance has shifted somewhat to me.

No, I’m not over 70 or have underlying health conditions, but if people want to get it it’s their choice

This is the type of attitude that has helped the virus to thrive

umm, no

also if you are young and you haven't got underlying health conditions you won't get the vaccine for a longer while with all honesty

So will you not get it once the older cohorts are done and they are vaccinating the rest of the population and its the turn of your age group?
