My husband had the Pfizer jab before Christmas with no ill effects it seemed . Two weeks after he had really bad headaches on 3 consecutive nights . He is not normally prone to headaches . The GP says it could not be related to the jab. Has anyone else had anything similar?

Yes I remember that Jean

Nothing is reported about the high number of suicides due to this lockdown on the news either. I think we should be told all the data, but were not!

Who says it's misinformation? On what authority do you speak?

It's healthy to analyse what's going on, to be sceptical shows intelligence.

Without a large, randomised clinical trial, with half the participants unknowingly having a placebo, we are never going to know. But in this case, there was not time. Incidentally I was working on women's health when the Pill came out, and was concerned at the many side effects women told me about. It was not until the RCGP report came out some years later that some were validated, but it was not till many years later that they admitted suicides had increased - and that was in an obscure publication, after having dismissed the depression women were reporting. Since then the Pill has changed.

Monica Emotional manipulation' rubbish Yogagirl. Children sing what they are told to sing, and give little thought to the words. They are not likely to receive the vaccine anyway

Exactly Monica

Emotional manipulation of me & those listening to the video, not the children. By the way I didn't listen to it again, as it's been sent to me more than 10 times. Can't remember it now, but on the same lines as the rest.

Emotional manipulation. Do those children, at such a young age, really understand what they are singing about?

My DGC are about the same age and I'm sure even the younger one could explain it to you very clearly and in great detail, Yogagirl

I could get my DGC to sing why they do not want me or any of their family to have this vaccine. If I posted on here it would be deleted. Only one view point allowed!

What exactly is "strange" about Alegrias's posts?

Had to very careful with my words, so strange wasn't actually what I wanted to saw. But as you can see my thread and quote on here have been deleted by GNHQ. So clearly I need to put it to Alegi first, before I post anything, to make sure she agrees with my thoughts!

Beachwriter your husband is no more likely to be a carrier of the virus after he is vaccinated than he is now. Both of you just need to keep going with the precautions you have been taking up to now.

I believe that the CEV are in Group 4 so they will be getting to you soon. (Happy to be corrected if anyone knows better)

All the best Beachwriter, I hope you get your vaccination soon. flowers

Beachwriter Mon 18-Jan-21 11:34:15

My husband will be vaccinated tomorrow. I am clinically extremely vulnerable but have not had any notification of when I will be vaccinated. Once my husband is vaccinated, could he be a carrier and give me Covid before I am vaccinated?

BlueBelle Mon 18-Jan-21 11:22:40

My NHS family member had their injection yesterday but the amount not turning up was astounding these are NHS workers not general public and the vaccine cannot be kept once it’s out of the freezer for so many hours

mumstheword86 None of the COVID vaccines contain the covid virus, alive or dead. Both the Pfizer and Astra Zenica vaccines, the ones used in the UK are based on manipulations of parts of the virus only.

mumstheword86 Mon 18-Jan-21 11:07:34

Covid is a virus and any virus injections will give you symptoms of the actual disease in my opinion but I am not medically qualified so what do I know Think about chicken pox and measles’s they sometimes tell you that it could bring out shingles or help you not get shingles so severely Just be aware the doctors say better to have the vaccine and one might have side effects but better than the full blown Covid It will be a few years until we know more about this situation we are all faced even the medical scientists aren’t Gods they are using their knowledge learnt in books and by doing experiments/tests etc to guide us to living a healthy and longer life

'^Emotional manipulation' rubbish Yogagirl. Children sing what they are told to sing, and give little thought to the words^

I'm not sure - they seem to be the kind of family who would discuss such issues with their children but also without worrying them unduly.

The issue of whether or not people take up the offer of vaccination and we get on top of Covid affects their futures.

M0nica Mon 18-Jan-21 10:48:19

I have had the vaccine, best friend has had the vaccine, DS's MiL has had the vaccine. Not one of us has had any reaction to it, no sore arm, no swelling, we haven't grasped our throats and turned purple, our bowels are working perfectly and none of us has a temperature.

Aldom has reported much the same.

Bikergran, your father's pain sounds like angina, which is why he has the spray. This used to happen to my DF, who also had angina. Angina can be very random.

'Emotional manipulation' rubbish Yogagirl. Children sing what they are told to sing, and give little thought to the words. They are not likely to receive the vaccine anyway.

Should I worry that my grandchildren sing 'What shall I do with a drunken sailor' and lots of other folk songs whose words suggest they do things inappropriate to their age and condition or encourage them to do things that are illegal if not criminal?

bikergran perhaps he got over-anxious. Does he have an emergency button or, if not could he keep his mobile phone on him all the time so he can call you if necessary.
Someone I know, also 85, had his last weekend and us absolutely fine.

A reminder - wear a short-sleeved top! When I went for my flu jab vaccine I did but had a jumper over the top. The nurse said, "I'll just go in from the top". Just as well it was a stretchy jumper.

Here's a much better (and shorter) video. The Marsh family in fine voice again.

Watched that ages ago, so, so many of the same!

Shall I report you for time wasting? No.

On the morning of Thursday, 14th December I had the Pfizer vaccine. I had a slightly sore arm at bedtime, but slept well on the arm. The soreness has gone and I have no side effects. My surgery are using a large marquee behind the surgery. The whole process was very well organised, warm and friendly. I was there for a total of 20 minutes.
