Wonder how all the people trying to coerce others into vaccines are feeling now.


So it was clear enough early doors that there were issues with AZ but the stocks were easier to get and there were fewer issues on delivery/storage than with Pfizer and it was considered in older age groups that the risks of this were worth it as opposed to the risks of getting covid; but it was clear also in younger groups that this wasn't the case which is why under 40s were given Pfizer or Moderna instead (the urgency having eased a bit).


For a lot of people vaccination was probably still the right thing to do and especially at the time but pressurising young healthy adults and teenagers probably wasn't right..
