Felt sick all day and randomly both my knees are aching but hopefully be alright after a decent nights sleep.

It‘s their basic human rights not to have it though for whatever reason they chose - funny how the mainstream media hardly mentioned the ending of the mandates either - hope all the careworkers get their jobs back too
Dunno why people have to constantly interfere & stick their beak into what other people are choosing

ok so would you want a surgeon treating you without hepatitis jabs and would you want a blood transfusion from someone with HIV - after all itvs surely their basic human rights not to have to have the jab or disclose a medical condition

So, just to gauge opinion

You're having a heart attack. An unjabbed Doctor/nurse/ paramedic whatever, who may have the virus is first on the scene


Are you telling them 'na you aint jabbed?'

Also, devils advocate again, I've had my jabs. Yet i had covid. Wouldnt have known without a test

If i was a doctor, i could have passed it on to any patient i saw. Whys that different to the unjabbed?

You can't guarantee that you won't catch it, but a vaccine lessens your chances of doing so and logically someone less likely to have it is less likely to spread it. I'd hope that anyone working directly with seriously ill people would take any chance they have to reduce risk

Does it?

I thought it stops you getting seriously ill?

Pretty sure it's shown that vaccines do next to fuck all for spread considering the hundreds of thousands of cases a day we've had

No, just Covid. Because no one would have gave a shit pre covid if the paramedic treating them wasnt jabbed against fucking meningitis etc so as i say just trying to see the thoughts

They do help lower the chances of serious illness and death, along with it the chances of infection. If no vaccines were available the number of cases would still be higher than they are.

I’ve only ever met one proper no vaxx (any vaccine) person and they were off their head - I’d rather not be treated by someone like that because they’d probably favour fucking crystals.
Depressingly, I expect more widespread anti-vaccine sentiment will end up being around for a while after the pandemic.

Yeah and not to mention a lot of Trusts have their own policy for hepatitis vaccines, amongst others.

This is a moronic comparison and I can’t believe we’re still doing this. In a true emergency, of course it doesn’t matter - if my plane is crashing and the only pilot on board is drunk, then I don’t mind if he tries to save me. But pilots should still have to be sober to fly (even if, yes, sober pilots can crash planes too).

I expect health professionals to pose as little risk to their patients as possible, which is why I want them to be vaccinated against every conceivable illness that could threaten me. It’s worrying to me that a decent chunk of them don’t share the level of professionalism that I would expect.

It is at least comforting that the vaccine mandate did part of its job, which is to persuade many people to get the jab anyway. Because as we’ve seen, while there are undoubtedly many staunch anti-vaxxers who will never get it, there are even more vaccine skeptics who are too cowardly to crow about its supposed dangers without first getting the vaccine themselves and enjoying its protections. Vaccine mandates like the ones for health care workers and for travel quickly show how flimsy these vaccine skeptic arguments are - you only have to look at how quickly people abandon them.

Not really - I take bullying to mean the unfair and sustained targeting of a specific weak and vulnerable person. Is that how you see it?

In an emergency nobody is going to check if the person treating you is jabbed or not, that's a ridiculous suggestion. You would act the same as people do now, you'd trust that the appropriate regulations are in place to minimise any risk to you.

Always exceptions I guess, I guess its mostly because the pzifer don't give any reaction most the time so I guess reaction from 1/3 isn't to bad but with most having Pfizer for 1sr and 2nd only

Saw a post on the local Facebook group that since the government dropped masks in schools cases have gone through the roof which has led to increased absence and as a result masks are being re-introduced. Nobody could have possibly predicted that.

Quick google suggests they are far from the only school having this problem.

At my lads school if anybody in the house gets it they are not allowed in but at my daughters special school it doesn’t apply.

My wife is a nurse had all three jabs, has had covid twice with no symptoms.

My view on people having the jabs would be if you have had your jabs and get it receive full sick pay no jabs basic pay.

Deaths are the highest they've been in a year.
MSN

In no doubt completely unrelated news:
The daily COVID death number will no longer be published by Easter, a senior Whitehall source has told the i.

It would be part of government plans to "live with" the virus.

A source familiar with the plans told the newspaper: "The prime minister has pencilled in Easter as the latest date by which the daily COVID statistics will be published in their current form.

"In an ideal situation, he will bring an end to them sooner if the current downward trend in deaths continues."

It would mean the UKHSA would no longer publish a daily dashboard of infections, hospital admissions and death data.

Tbf that's due to a lag. Looking at weekly rates they're down around 1.5%
