I despair of the things put on BSF about this subject Just paid a visit for the first time in weeks. They are still at it I see. An opinion is fine as long as it's the right one. You will agree and we'll keep on until you do! "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it" - however, you will be assimilated say the BSF Borg

You will agree and we'll keep on until you do! "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it" - however, you will be assimilated say the BSF Borg They will never shut up until you agree with their opinions. Even when they are shown actual facts proving they are wrong and most of what they post is just made up crap - They ignore and continue with their fake news. Blu and Wolf are like a couple of giggly kids thinking they are so smart but actually often make complete fools of themselves. My friend has been in hospital 11 days now and finally hopes to be home in a week. Both he and his wife caught it from their kids. Wife only had mild systems but he deteriorated drastically over 3 days after testing positive. They eventually had to call an emergency ambulance, he was extremely sick but lucky to just avoid having to go on a ventilator. It was a close call. He is 55 today, not fat, very fit and healthy with no ongoing issues. The gruesome twosome will deny everything and eventually just say, it’s the new name for flu, a government conspiracy for the great restart and when backed into a corner the usual ‘are you getting it yet?’ Without ever being able to say what it is we are not getting.

And why do they give crap links or examples that you can never read? Just paid a quick visit to the BSF thread and there is an apparent link to something showing that they were right but it's just a line of guff that points to nothing? It's got me perplexed, much like their arguments, even though I'm not against all that they say because IMO the government has played mind games and that has been very damaging on the population. If we don't see through that then I'm not sure where that ends?

Very interesting and well spoken chap. Better than the gang (are we getting it yet) ramming it down people’s throats on the BSF. They are long videos so take some time to get through. I’d better get on with the vaccine and possible side effects as I’m booked for tomorrow. So did you get any? I took the plunge today for jab 1. Would have preferred not to but it's becoming harder to hold that position and those views.

Would have preferred not to but it's becoming harder to hold that position and those views. I had my second jab last Thursday and apart from a somewhat tender shoulder had no other effects, two people I know who both have had Covid had quite a few problems after getting their jabs whilst others just had the odd headache etc.

Would have preferred not to but it's becoming harder to hold that position and those views. Didn’t get out of bed until 11am the morning after. Zapped my energy and felt a bit groggy. Felt very tired for the next few days. Girlfriend was much the same. Most people I has spoken and had side effects were The AZ ones.

How COVID-19 vaccines work - mRNA and viral vector (This content was fact checked by vaccine experts working in Ireland - source www.hse.ie/eng/ - Last updated: 16 April 2021 at 3.15pm) Vaccines are the most effective way to prevent infectious diseases. They prepare your immune system (your body's natural defences) to recognise and defend itself against a specific virus. All vaccines do this. But different types of vaccine work in different ways. Some types of vaccine contain a live virus. For example, the flu vaccine contains a small amount of the flu virus. But none of the COVID-19 vaccines in use have the COVID-19 virus in them. They work differently. There are currently 2 types of COVID-19 vaccine in use: mRNA viral vector All vaccines are tested for safety and effectiveness before they can be used. The HSE only uses a vaccine if it meets the required standards of safety and effectiveness. mRNA vaccines The Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines are both mRNA vaccines.mRNA vaccines teach your body how to make a protein that will trigger an immune response, without using a live virus. After you get an mRNA vaccine, your body makes antibodies that help fight the infection if a virus enters your body in the future. Researchers have been studying and working with mRNA vaccines for decades. How COVID-19 mRNA vaccines workThe surface of the virus that causes COVID-19 is studded with proteins known as "spike proteins". The virus uses these spikes to enter human cells, infecting you with COVID-19. mRNA COVID-19 vaccines contain the instructions for making this spike protein. After you get your vaccine, your immune system recognises that the protein doesn't belong there. Your body then begins building an immune response to fight off what it thinks is an infection. This immune response makes antibodies. The antibodies offer you protection from COVID-19. It is much safer for your immune system to learn how to protect you from COVID-19 through vaccination than by catching the virus. Your cells then break down the instructions for making the spike protein and gets rid of them from your body. Viral vector vaccines The AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine is a viral vector vaccine.Viral vector vaccines use a harmless virus as a delivery system. They teach your body how to make a protein that will trigger an immune response. Hundreds of scientific studies of viral vector vaccines have been done and published around the world. Some vaccines recently used for Ebola outbreaks have used viral vector technology. Other studies have focused on viral vector vaccines against Zika, flu, and HIV. How COVID-19 viral vector vaccines workViral vector vaccines are like messengers. They use a weakened version of a different virus (the vector) to deliver instructions to cells in your body. COVID-19 vaccines use the adenovirus as the vector. Adenovirus is the virus that causes the common cold. The surface of the virus that causes COVID-19 is studded with proteins known as "spike proteins". The virus uses these spikes to enter human cells, infecting you with COVID-19. When you get a viral vector vaccine, the vector (adenovirus) enters a cell in your body. It then teaches the cell how to produce the COVID-19 spike protein. After you get your vaccine, your immune system recognises that the protein doesn't belong there. Your body then begins building an immune response to fight off what it thinks is an infection. This immune response makes antibodies. The antibodies offer you protection from COVID-19. It is much safer for your immune system to learn how to protect you from COVID-19 through vaccination than by catching the virus.

Portugal is set to be moved from England's green travel list to amber - meaning that people can only travel there for essential reasons - the BBC understands
And it looks likely that no new countries will be added to the green list when the latest update is confirmed later
It is expected more countries will be added to the red list, which should only be visited in extreme circumstances

Saw an interesting post on another forum just now: A chap having according to himself lives in a fairly rural area and had hardly been out since start of Covid and had had both jabs. Got a ticket for Championship play offs and has contracted Covid (mildly he says) and in normal circumstances would have put up with it and carried on. Where he got it from nobody knows, but on the train journey he says a number of younger people boarded the train without masks. One sat next to him and when asked about a mask he was told to F off nothing to do with you mate

One sat next to him and when asked about a mask he was told to F off nothing to do with you mate Standard answer from many of today's young morons. Ask why they dropped their rubbish on the floor within view of a bin, why they are riding their bike on the path or otherwise doing something else objectionable then you never get an apologetic explanation, just usually told by the wrong doer to F Off Even though I was working from home (still am) and rarely see anyone I made sure that since last March I went out everyday with the dog. I can't think that those who haven't been out have helped their immune system. Sensibly he got vaccinated so he had some immunity against these youngster but I'd say social distancing was more of an issue than a mask.

Not had my first yet and may wait until Aug/Sept time and the onset of the flu season unless forced by some sort of Covid passport to gain services, and the UK turns in to China. I don't do much and could stop work if I wanted so would be quite happy to withdraw from society, as Neil Oliver says, if this never ends and we're going to be continually pissed about with masks and social distancing etc. All fits in nicely with Extinction Rebellion and returning to cave dwelling, not that I'm in to conspiracy theories!Interesting to hear Trevor Kavanagh say the same on Talkradio today. He didn't mention ER but said that the Green Agenda is going to be as costly and as damaging as Covid and restricting freedoms and travel is compatible with it? (think that was the gist of it!)

OTTAWA -- The National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI) is now recommending that people who received a first dose of the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine receive a second dose of an mRNA vaccine, such as Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna. NACI’s latest advice takes into consideration the most recent evidence on the rare instances of blood clots associated with the AstraZeneca shot and the increase of mRNA vaccine supply arriving on Canadian soil. It also says it reviewed emerging evidence “suggesting better immune responses” when an individual receives a first dose of AstraZeneca and a second dose of an mRNA vaccine. www.ctvnews.ca/health/coronavirus/mrna-vaccine-now-preferred-as-second-dose-following-astrazeneca-shot-naci-1.5475020 17/6/21 Looks more of a supply and loss of confidence issue rather than good idea. If you had no reaction from AZ1 then I can't see that you shouldn't have AZ2 which: The advisory panel made the specification, however, that those who have already received two doses of AstraZeneca “can rest assured that the vaccine provides good protection against infection and very good protection against severe disease and hospitalization.”

No side effects from the second vaccine. I had noticed some people I know were having a different second dose to AZ.

You're in good company: Andrew Bridgen@ABridgen 19/6/21I had my second Oxford AstraZeneca jab today at Mason’s Chemists in Coalville. Thanks to all of the brilliant people who have made the vaccination program possible.
I'll have a 2nd AZ in a few weeks. Personally I'd prefer not to mix.

The 66-year-old leader was vaccinated a few days ago after getting a dose of AstraZeneca in April. Experts believe mixed dosing of Covid vaccines could be a good idea but it is too early to say for sure. www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-57571791 (23/6/21)

GF had her second vaccine last Saturday. First one was AZ, second also AZ. No questions asked. Symptoms, only a very slight arm ache. That I translate into no reactions. Women really do like to milk it at every opportunity - so don’t ever get me started on man flu

Women really do like to milk it at every opportunity - so don’t ever get me started on man flu I just found it interesting that she'd that she'd had the mix and match of AZ/Moderna. Also that if this vaccine was so dangerous (as our BSF friends would have you believe) then you'd think that the German Chancellor would be bright enough to work that out, or be told by her medical experts, that she should avoid the jab?
