Had a dodgy Indian..

Normally seeing a matching string of numbers on a ticket such as 4120Z003 is a good thing.

However this time it means I have won a dose of Astra Zafira Vauxine that isnt recognised in the EU because it was made in India.

The EU vaccine 'passport' and what it means for travel

An EU vaccine "passport" is being introduced, enabling holders to prove they have been jabbed.

I wasn't planning on travelling through France to get somewhere nice anytime soon.
Having just got a shiny new blue passport for ID checks/security clearance its a bit of a ****** to find I may not be a double-jab club member depsite my best endeavours.

I don't think there is anything wrong with the jab we had - still protected- it's just the EMA didn't accredit it so it's not currently acceptable for the EU Covid passports scheme..... So not an issue if not traveling....

I'd just be happy you have had the vaccine, a lot around the world haven't yet. It's identical to the AZ vaccine most others have had. I have had the 412Z001 batch. Couldn't care less, it protects me, my family and others around me.

 

[CompoSimmonite]

My first jab is one of those listed ! Haven't even got a passport so not a worry for me

 

[Barking Mat]

I was expecting squits after a take away...

No it doesn’t protect anyone. A pal is laid up that has had both doses.

you still can carry the virus and transmit it.

The vaccine does more or less guarantee that you won't be hospitalised, but you can still suffer from it and pass it on.

Just like the flu vacciny, well worth having i feel

Tell that to the 40% of the people who have died from covid recently,

But they haven't had a vaccine?

 

[Brad93]

Never had flu, never had a vaccine or jab.

 

[Brad93]

But they haven't had a vaccine?

But they haven't had a vaccine?

Of all the people who have died recent, 40% of those who died, had been vaccinated.

Let's not let this thread degenerate into an anti-vaxxer tirade, please.

 

[mtt.tr]

Of all the people who have died recent, 40% of those who died, had been vaccinated.

But percentage of overall deaths have dropped suggesting its reduced the overall death rate.

I would wager Those that died probably had secondary conditions and would of died either way.

I’m not an anti-Vaxer. When it’s been proven and tested safe after real time research not a push through the system Via a special measures back door I’ll have it.

 

[Brad93]

I’ve had all my vaccinations by the way thank you very much.

I rarely make statements like this, but being married to someone who was redeployed onto a covid ward and took part in the early vaccine trials I find your posts both ill informed and highly offensive

What about it is ill informed?

The facts and figures are right there on the Guardian and the BBC.

Those figures are misunderstood

If the whole population was vaccinated then 100% of people who died of covid would have been vaccinated, does that mean the vaccine doesn't work or statistics are meaningless?

Oh yes reliable stalwarts of scientific thinking
