Look at the slides. It’s only just worth it for U30s in the U.K. because of our low numbers. If we had Europe’s cases it makes no sense at all.

Nothing to do with the EU, but the decisions made to halt usage of AZ on vulnerable populations while cases were still high is bordering on criminal. Nothing MHRA have said today changes that.

It seems more a case of the risk from COVID being so low to this age group that a vaccine with x % of side effects isn't worth it. Though being honest by the time we reach 18-29 we'll probably be on to Novavax for them anyway. Let's keep it in perspective, we're talking a few dozen cases out of tens of millions of injections.

Covid: Under-30s offered alternative to Oxford-AstraZeneca jab

A review finds a "plausible" link to rare blood clots, but says the jab remains beneficial for most.

any apologies to our friends in Europe appropriate?

So this is the same Europe which one leader in France said didn’t work and one in Germany said don’t take it if like me you are over 65?

Did they apologise for actual lies?

My sister and her husband had their first jab a week or so back. He felt fine, she felt like shit for a couple of days. It seems to be a complete lottery who does and who doesn't get a reaction.

I read it was based on how good your immune system is at fighting the virus. The better your immune system the more of a reaction you get from it.*

The risk is 1 in a million. The Eu response is to try and justify their rather appalling management of the whole programme. Again, did Germany say it was t safe for over 65 and Macron questioning its effectiveness?

I know someone who’s had a splenectomy which severely compromises your immune system and they had a right shitty reaction to the jab. Maybe it’s the other way around.

I know that you don’t like facts to cloud your judgment but here they come. It was 10 countries in the EU who paused the rollout, that’s barely a third of the EU. The EMA which is the regulatory body that controls the regulation of vaccines in the EU only ever advised the continuing use of the vaccine. So given the facts the the “EU response” was actually the opposite of what you’re trying to paint it.

It's a bit like the Heaf test you get for the BCG vaccine. The stronger your immune response is the more likely you are to feel something.

Not quite as clownish as the EU sending in inspectors to AZ sites in case the company was lying about production issues.

Covid-19: What do we know about Sputnik V and other Russian vaccines?

Funny VDL is critical in the article about Russia exporting millions of doses while millions of there own population haven't had a dose, couldn't make it up .
Finally do we think scientifically and objectively it's any good ?

It's a bit unusual in that the second dose is biologically different to the first but the data looks good.

Potentially more risk or more risk? You're moving the goalposts already.

The risk of dying from a vaccine related blood clot is 1 in a million. That is a lower risk than covid.
According to the QCOVID tool, the risk a 30 Yr old with no risk factors dying of covid is 1 in 250k.

I'm not sure that's right. 19 have died from 22 million doses but 3 of those have been under 30 and I doubt if 3 million under 30s have been vaccinated. Looking at the 1st slide JVT showed yesterday in under 30s 0.8 per 100,000 could die from the virus but 1.1 per 100,000 could die from the vaccine. This is surely why under 30s are to be offered an alternative vaccine.

I can't agree Pete. Given the numbers of deaths from Covid I think they were displaying a certain amount of irrationality.

Once the other vaccines become as widely used as AZ there may be issues with them but I'd wager the numbers would still be incredibly small.
