Is there anyone who has refused to have the 4th Covid Vaccine? I am due to have mine soon, but so undecided this time. I always get swollen lymph nodes near my collar bone.

Condolences on the death of your husband, Iam64.

I went to get my 5th and the pharmacist said it's only people over 75 and those with health conditions. Not sure why they let me book then.

That's horrendous Iam. I do wonder about some doctors.
Well I'm getting my fifth jab today. I've never had any side effects and as people have said, they can't be as bad as Covid.

Thank you
We saw our usual GP on the Monday and gave her the emergency covers name and details of what he’d said. He strongly advised us not to take up the next covid jab, persisting even when we said we saw his views as incorrect and inappropriate

How distressing, Iam64. flowers

I am so sorry Iam64 what a devastating and rapid illness, which I am sure you are still sadly coming to terms with.
I am really surprised, by your emergency doctor. I can’t understand those working as medical practitioners do not believe medical science and relevant research. Why are they doing the job I wonder?
Secondly it was unprofessional of him to pass on his personal (unsupported) theory to patients.
I would be inclined to report it, but I am sure you were not in a fit state to do so, and just grateful for his diagnosis and treatment of your husband.

My husband died in October, after a diagnosis only 6 months earlier of metastatic cancer. We saw an emergency doctor who was covering our practice, one Saturday in September. He was excellent in diagnosing a uti as the cause of unpleasant symptoms, friendly, skilled, professional .
He then asked about covid vaccinations. Began to explain what we saw as conspiracy theories. When we challenged him, he suggested my husband’s cancer was caused by the covid immunisations.

Shocking experience

Volver I can imagine you feel quite silly believing what you've been told but the evidence shows you've been lied to

So where's your evidence? Go on! Provide some reliable links and we can follow them up.

Varian the BBC? Oh well that's gospel then

varian Wed 11-Jan-23 22:48:09

Oh dear biscuit you must stop watching Fox News and believing the utter rubbish peddled by Tucker Carlson.

This nonsense claim you keep repeating has been well and truly debunked by today's "More or Less" programme on BBC Radio 4.

How can you say how great the covid vaccine is? More people are dying than ever! Young people dropping with heart attacks. 20% more deaths now than there should be

You can't even make up lies accurately! hmm

varian Wed 11-Jan-23 17:37:05

The death rate among unvaccinated people is still far higher than that among the vaccinated even though vaccinated people now make up a significant proportion of deaths

Tamayra death rate risen for those jabbed No, it has not risen, it has gone DOWN. A far higher proportion of the UNvaccinated CoVid patients die than the proportion of vaccinated patients do.

If there were forty vaccinated patients and three unvaccinated (because there were so many more vaccinated people in the community to start with), and one of each died, then ther chances of death if vaccinated would be one in thirty, but unvaccinated would be one in three.
NOTE - I am not saying those numbers are exact for the real figures at any given time, they are just to show that what matters is the proportion of deaths to patients who have caught CoVid

I've just been looking at his Twitter timeline.

It's completely bonkers.

How is he an MP?

Yep, me too - he is an idiot, a dangerous idiot at that

Bridgen has had the whip removed because of his anti-vax stance.

Covid vaccinations absolutely do work.
Irrefutably.

When will folk get the message The vaccines don’t work !
Lots of proof from both doctors & scientists if you care to research
Long term effects are not known & death rate risen for those jabbed. Folk are being used as Guinea pigs!

Unless you are a qualified virologist (or the equivalent) I'll assume your 'research' is via Doctor Google. So reliable..

Spare a thought for people with serious health issues who can't get required surgeries because hospital beds are filled with others who have covid; many of whom might not be as sick had they accepted their jabs when offered.

I wonder if those who have refused Covid vaccinations, will refuse treatment, if they are hospitalised with Covid.

Despite having had very serious side effects with my first three vaccinations, (I have had six now), my cardiologist, who worked in Covid ICU, said I had done the right thing to try and minimise the terrible effects of Covid on those of us, who are CEV.

He said that he had never seen such terrible damage, as he had seen in the hearts of Covid sufferers., it's not just like a cold, as some on here suggest. They are the lucky ones..
