The Pfizer and AstraZeneca vaccines being given to millions of people in the UK by the NHS are extremely safe, with some mild expected side-effects, says the country's drugs regulator.
It assessed safety reports from nearly seven million doses given up to 24 January - mostly with the Pfizer jab.
Some 22,820 suspected reactions were reported. Around three in every 1,000 people vaccinated were affected.
Almost all cases were mild, such as a sore arm or flu-like illness.

Re: Coronavirus
Without Covid this would never have happened. I know this thread is a serious record of the forum's view of what has happened but I hope that this link to an extract of a Zoom Council meeting will make you giggle as much as I did.

Ah, I suspect they were referring to the over 50s plus those with health conditions. Which is over 50%.

btw, it’s over 65s - they are still discussing about the over-55s.

Don't shoot the messenger, because you don't like the message.

Re: Coronavirus
In the valley of the blind, those called Hugh sees least.
People will recall the 300 million doses each ordered by the EU from Biontech (DE) and Sanofi (FR). Something about maintaining France/Germany balance? People might also recall that Sanofi is now delayed due to efficacy problems.
And these fools are now damning the AZ vaccine and Germany is setting up to make Sputnik V.
Politics, politics and utter foolishness.

Re: Coronavirus
It’s a fairly cynical PR campaign aimed at reassuring the voters of Europe that the UK is being irresponsible, and they really shouldn’t compare our apparently miles-ahead vaccination programme with their clown car effort. Don’t underestimate the profound cognitive dissonance sweeping the corridors of European power at the moment. They have royally fecked up the one thing that was supposed to simultaneously prove the strength of the EU and the diminished state of the UK.
