    Covid Booster Jabs

    Who’s having a winter booster and who’s not bothering?

    I was undecided but due one, on Wednesday I tested positive, I felt rough yesterday but improving today.

    Now I’m thinking is that me covered as my bodies had a dose or am I recovering quickly because of previous jabs

    Here in Northampton the vaccination centres have been pretty busy yet I’m meeting lots of people who’ve said no more

    I've turned it down, had covid twice and not been ill, so working on the theory my own antibodies will fight it, if I get it again.
    Had the flu jab though, I've had that twice too and I was really ill both times.

    well i am the same had 3 and even though i am probably classed as vulnerable being seventy and two heart attacks, i am leaning towards a nope for anymore, had two emails in last three weeks inviting me for my "seasonal" covid jab ;)...so it looks like they are after giving it you ongoing....and recently a senior exec of pfizer admitted that when they started to roll out the jabs they had no info on whether it prevented transmission!.........so is it a con or not :eek:

    I’ve had Flu twice too, absolutely knocked me for six, couldn’t get out of bed for three days apart from the toilet and back.

    It always made me smile at work when people called in sick with the flu and they’d be back in three days

    Have booked mine for next week.

    Nothing to be scared of as it's just a small prick.

    Probably a lot less than sniffer who's not been vaccinated for covid.

    Not something to be overly concerned about to be honest.

    You lot had Covid in your country before you had a vaccine and this has resulted in

    UK Deaths per million 2813 (Worldometer)

    We got more than 95% of population double vacated and many 3x and 4x vaccinated and then we let the virus in

    Aus Deaths per million 597 (Worldometer)

    Looks to me as though the vaccine helps, unless we are just naturally better!!

    I think you're booster is covered after a natural infection bud. Unsurprisingly a natural infection seems to give you very good protection.

    Go with as many dirty whores as you like for 3 or 4 months now.

    We've just had a storm warning here in the Redlands, Eric. I imagine that means it will rain little harder judging by the accuracy of the BOM's latest predictions. Three days of torrential rain, my arse!! :steam:

    It's heading south from us to you mate, we've been getting warnings all day. The creeks are up but no flooding yet so I guess about 60-80 mm
