Covid Jabs

Do not quite get why the very people who are more likely to be negatively impacted by covid are the ones more likely to turn the vaccine down. To me that is very counter intuitive. Apparently there is a lot of misinformation about the jab, for example that it leads to sterility, not sure how that works as mostly older people should have been offered to date and no matter what your ethnicity, would you be still want to be doing the school run at 70?
There is a lot of religion based twaddle around this pandemic, back in March, I was working with a lot of asylum seeking young people, many of whom were Muslim, some refused to use hand sanitisers because they contained alcohol.
Everyone should get the jab but those seeking to spread misinformation for whatever reason should hang their head in shame because this nonsense is a danger to us all.

And High hasn't even made an appearance on this thread.

Wife got her jab this morning after booking on line yesterday.

Invite from NHS on the mat when we got home.

Sod’s law still exists

Firstly, best wishes to NJS and Matty and I hope you both continue your recoveries.

I’ve had my first jab, along with my hubby, and we get our 2nd end of April. Unfortunately I fall into the “old gittess” category now. I’ll be glad when Bannatynes opens again as I find it really hard to keep exercising alone at home.

Many thanks Maid...I feel a bit of a fraud getting all best wishes 'cos my cancer was two years ago now, Matty's is more immediate.

Me and my wife got our 1st vaccinations at the Allerton Medical Centre in North Leeds...the next day it was announced on the news, on that particular Saturday, more vaccinations were done on that day, in the UK, forget how many but a few thousands.
The organisation was superb, from the car park attendant to volunteers guiding us about, streaming us into the proper vaccination rooms, to awaiting doctors and nurses...I was very proud of the volunteers and doctors, administrators.

Like the 'old gittess' description btw, very good! haha

* Allerton Medical Centre held the record for the number of vacs done On that particular day in the U.K.

Just to clarify.
