I'd like a shingles one as well! At a different time though.
Early Retirement - have you, would you ?

I will have my next vaccine as well as my flu jab but not at the same time. If I do have a reaction, it would be more helpful to know which was the culprit.
usernametaken, please make your mind up - which is it, deaths caused by (according to your theory), the covid vaccine or they are caused by other things (such as the car accident you quoted) but are listed on the death certificate as being caused by vaccine induced covid? (I say vaccine induced covid because, reading your comments, I get the feeling you don’t believe there was a covid virus, just covid caused by vaccines). Where are your facts , figures and information for all this drivel you spout - you really are talking utter nonsense, aren’t you?
In one of your posts, you say that the numbers have been fiddled because non covid deaths have been recorded as covid deaths (ref your car accident comment), in another you say that covid deaths have more than doubled as a result of people being double jabbed with a covid vaccine - so, do you believe in covid or not?
How do you account for all the thousands and thousands of deaths world wide from covid before a vaccine was developed - were those deaths not from covid then? What were they from?
Good to know Farzanah
This pesky virus changes so often its difficult to keep up.
Yes because latest vaccine additionally protects against Omicron BA.4
Yes, because their effectiveness wears off after a few months and you are less protected. I'm having my 5th next week. So I hope you do too.
I have already had 4 vaccines. Do you think I should have a fifth. Had a letter today, from NHS Wales for 1st October!
Its a fallacy that all opinions are of equal value
Did I say they were?
Unfortunately there will be some people who will be swayed by absolute tripe
So?
You sound angry.
Why?

Growstuff yes, false equivalence.
You had a lot of that with Brexit; with the likes of Mark Carney debating the economy with people like Andrea ‘Jam’ Leadsome
We are in our eighties but our surgery hasn’t contacted us. Will have to go there to see if there is a notice of some kind.

Well, I for one enjoy hearing a variety of opinions on every subject.
I hope people wont be put off posting them.

I had my three Covid jabs and my flu jab last year, as did my friend - like TiggyW, we both had Covid after a cruise earlier this year. We were probably not as bad as we could have been if we hadn't had our jabs.
I already have my flu jab booked for two weeks next Monday, and just today had my letter giving me an appointment for a Covid booster two weeks today - I will be taking it up.
I know several people who have had all their jabs and they have still got Covid albeit probably lighter than if they hadn't and they will take up any boosters.
I will be having my booster when I get my flu jab at the beginning of October. They couldn’t guarantee that they would have the COVID booster but are planning that they will. Fingers crossed.
Well there has to be one telling us to "Do our research" doesn't there? I continue to rely on my daughter who is a quite well respected biochemist and her friend who is a doctor and spent a year on a Covid ward. Both of them are firmly pro vaccination. The four people I knew personally who sadly died of Covid caught it before the vaccine came out. My family who all caught it after vaccination all had a very mild illness, including one who was extremely vulnerable and would probably have died if he hadn't been vaccinated.
The vaccine wasn't rushed and un tested. If you read Vaxxers you will see that the money that poured in from round the world meant that months weren't wasted while they looked for funding for the next stage. In all research and development it's funding that is the stumbling block.
Had my booster last week, unfortunately they are still waiting for the flu one.

TIGGYW. Yes I had all my childhood vaccinations. The covid one imo has been rushed through with not enough testing.
And you caught covid on a cruise, jab working well then.
No, I have never had it. Never wore a mask and didn’t stop from seeing family members
We all have our own opinions, just because I don’t agree with a lot of you doesn’t mean that some of you have to resort to insulting comments. Says a lot more about you than it does about me.
So you're an expert on Covid vaccination testing, are you?

Then I apologise Galaxy for calling you sheep. I just feel that a lot of people aren’t questioning the deaths from the vaccine and the terrible side effects some are experiencing.
And as Vickya mentioned if you do become ill or at the worst die there is no compensation from the vaccine manufacturers. Because it’s a trial.
What absolute rot! The vaccines have been trialled and are being monitored. I just do not understand why anybody persists in spreading such scare-mongering nonsense.
If you don't want to be vaccinated, that's your business, but what do you hope to gain by trying to put other people off?
Usernametaken thank god someone agrees with me sick of all the bs but heho you want your jabs carry on i have had 3 and covid no more for me
galaxy has grown wings since the vaccine
We are 66 and got our invitation for flu and covid boosters early October. DM has hers end of September. We got dates, times and place in the letter.

It’s been 12 months since we had the booster jab, so I’m not entirely surprised that we’re no longer protected. We had to show proof of a negative test to board the ship.
I think you’re extremely lucky not to have caught this ‘imaginary’ disease. (Just writing this as my head is spinning, my throat is sore and my legs feel like jelly. At least I’m not short of breath…) I’d rather risk having the booster than risk having Covid again, especially as I get older.

Usernametaken is right but once the story has spread and fear is whipped up people can't accept that the vaccines are harmful. Most of us are not able to take in the statistics, published by the government bodies. We rely on the main media to interpret them and they are telling the Covid story.
Yes sciatica is nerves but if you used the yellow card system to report adverse effects of a vaccination back problems was one of the menus you could go to.
The manufacturers of vaccines have been given legal cover so they cannot be held responsible for any ill effects of the vaccines. This is not usual practice.
Just for the sake of accuracy, although the sciatic nerve originates in the lower spine, sciatic pain is in the buttock and leg. So not a back problem per se.
