Well, yes. But then, as I say, this is a global issue at present. See issues in the US with not recognising the AZ vaccine as it's not yet FDA aproved. Then there's the Chinese and Russian jabs not being recognised, and the Chinese and Russians not recognising some of the "western" jabs. Pragmatism may ultimately have to prevail, but for now it seems there's a lot of cautiousness about, and potentially some political game playing.GG. wrote: ↑Wed Jul 14, 2021 3:51 pm The difference here though is they're not licensing it for use in the EU just that it can be recognised on their vaccine passport so you'd think they could take a more light touch approach or say that if a third country (or even the WHO in this case) has approved its use then it can be recognised for the purposes of the EU passport - even if they won't authorise you to stick it in a Belgian or Frenchman's arm.

"The corporate, owned by Germany’s BMW, mentioned it was “extraordinarily involved” on the variety of employees at its manufacturing website in Goodwood, West Sussex, being ordered to remain at house due to NHS Take a look at and Hint app alerts."
Was that site translated by a child with a barely functional grasp of the English language?
What agitprop do you read to come across sites like that??
Re: Coronavirus
Been a busy 24 hours. Javid has Corona, Boris and Rishi said that they wouldn’t self isolate citing a pilot project. Now Rishi is going to isolate. Good to see the message is clear as they go into the great freeing

Re: Coronavirus
Looks like Boris is isolating now.
Had my second AZ jab last week. Zero side effects, not even a sore arm. The first one knocked me on my arse for 48hrs with high temp, aches, no sleep, so pleased to get them both out of the way.
FREEDOM DAY tomorrow. I’m still going to carry on with the mask for a while though.

Re: Coronavirus
Deb had her second Pfizer yesterday. No side effects. I have my second AZ on Tuesday. Looking forward to taking the second half of the week off sick. 
I see the rumours that they won't vaccinate all teenagers, which would be a massive mistake, again.
If the MHRA has said it's safe then crack on and do it. Lots of other countries are.

Freedomish day. Anything different?
I see Katie Hopkins has been deported for making a joke. A joke. Think about that in context and it's pretty scary whether you like the person or not.

Re: Coronavirus
The Aussies are so paranoid about it though, that's the same as the I've got a bomb "joke" on an airplane...
Re: Coronavirus
Its not at all. I follow her on Insta just for a laugh and what she put on her live yesterday was so obviously a joke made by someone bored out of their brains stuck in a hotel room. Like she really was going to open a door naked without a mask on to scare someone bringing her food. I mean come on. No the real reason is her stance on the pandemic and a very poor excuse not to let her on tv where in a Big Brother house where she can let rip on the whole ridiculousness of lockdowns etc.
Re: Coronavirus
Pretty scary that someone was willing to pay for Katie Hopkins to fly to the other side of the world and go on TV tbh

Re: Coronavirus
I'm not disagreeing that it's excessive Borccers - it is, after all, a joke.
But I'm talking to my brother in Brisbane a lot and with the general feeling on the ground about COVID, I'm not surprised at all that the "joke" was dealt with as it was. The are not fucking around with it.
Based on their policies to date they can't afford to

Re: Coronavirus
It wouldn't surprise me if this was her plan all along, it certainly got her more press than "z list celeb sad sack goes on provincial big brother".

13 new cases - if you need to find a joke in all this its right there. Lock everyone up because 13 people have tested for something and are probably not even ill.
Re: Coronavirus
That's the point Broccers
ONE student at my niece's school tested positive with a lateral flow test and it made the national news. She subsequently tested negative on a PCR.
Paranoia and fear are rife. The government did such a good job convincing the population that they would keep COVID out of Australia that they're having a massive problem convincing people to get vaccinated.

Re: Coronavirus
Fear and control. What I find astonishing is people won't take on any personal responsibility for their own health without instruction.
There was a report the other day that this year the killer will be pneumonia and flu. Which is quite right as two older people I know have gone from the former recently, not covid.

Re: Coronavirus
They've controlled covid very well over there, the problem with that is as we move to living with the virus they've just kicked the can down the road. Their options are to stay closed forever, or take the hit with a population that's had little to no exposure and potentially inferior vaccine take up.
Re: Coronavirus
I'd be interested to hear some other opinions - we've some Aussie residents on here, don't we ? - because, let's put it this way - my brother would probably be watching GB News if he still lived here so there's always pinch of salt with his opinions.
