No, you said he caught the virus due to not being vaccinated, the vaccine doesn’t stop you catching it, but provides significant protection against serious illness/death

Yeah, I know that, and you knew fine well what I meant when I more or less said if he had been vaccinated he would not have been hospitalised and unfortunately died, stop nit-picking ffs.

Stop taking it personally

If it’s LBC it’s probably a producer.

Seeing as he apparently had little or no contact with others, lack of vaccination seems irrelevant.

John told LBC: "He was a recluse to be honest. He never left the house, had all his food delivered and only left the house to go to the bins and the postbox.

Official stats show that there was a death in Northampton in that time frame.

But I have not been able to get hold of any LFT packs.

Would it not have been better for him to have been vaccinated anyway, after all, whether he was in contact with anyone or not I would have thought that most elderly people would have taken the vaccinations to be on the safe side.

Compared to completely isolating yourself, going out for a total of 3 jabs is a bigger risk. If he would've had to travel by public transport that would've been an even bigger risk.

Its not nit picking, its been repeated many times now that vaccinations do not stop you catching the virus. Your statement was wrong.

How is going out for a total of 3 jabs, not more of a risk than isolating yourself?

**Paul** · 16-12-2021, 20:59

How is the "risk" measured.

Ok, what I should have said was that if he had the vaccinations it would have probably helped him not being hospitalised, that better?
