Basically they are now saying only the most vulnerable over 50 need a booster jab. One could argue the most vulnerable over 50 were the only people affected in the first place. The whole vaccination of children is ridiculous.

And I'm still firmly in the overreaction camp even though I've happily had my jabs.

Im glad I'm not in nz or aus.

Edit. No sunset watching

Looks like a MK2 Golf there...

Are you allowed out car spotting?

Broccers, do you really follow Katie Hopkins on Instagram?

Does she ever show a bit of cleavage for the likes?

Of course I do, good to have views from every corner. They seem to be mainly antivaxxers at the moment kicking off.

Love how you say that like following a right wing troll is the most obvious thing in the world

I listen to James O Brien and LBC sometimes. Its quite normal to not be in a vacuous chamber.

yep, you either mean a vacuum chamber or an echo chamber.

Saying "vacuous chamber" makes you sound like the sort of person who says "pacific" instead of "specific"...

THIS is an example of London cuntery which is why you live there as you fit in

Zero input still tho 10/10

There's a difference between not living in an echo-vacuous chamber and giving someone who says dumb shit for attention what they crave

But you're right. C'mon lads Broccers has embarrassed himself and would like to draw attention away from it so lets get back on topic.

You didn't happen to look up what pandemic means while you were on the dictionary website?

I still cannot work out of you just like ripping the piss or you really are a right wing thicko.

Hehe you do realise it's exactly why there are no posts here for days?

Now does anybody agree people working in care homes should have the jabs?

This lot seem to think it's not required.

It will be interesting to see where the data comes out with regard to whether being double jabbed actually significantly reduces transmission (especially of the delta variant). If it doesn't, as seems likely, then the whole approach of vaccinating people that are very low risk or do not want to for the benefit of others that are vulnerable clearly has no merit.

If it significantly reduces but does not eliminate transmission then you could perhaps build some sort of a case for compulsory vaccination but its a lot harder to argue given jabbed or unjabbed can both still contract and transmit the virus.

We know that vaccination reduces the risk of serious illness and disease severity correlates with viral load. We know that viral load correlates with likelihood of infection*. To my thinking, it is likely we will see vaccines reducing transmission (and this is somewhat borne out by the slow rates of rise we are seeing at the moment) but the hard evidence isn’t there.

Hospitals are enforcing the rules about double jabbed people staying home from work after a contact and it’s a bloody nightmare, staffing wise.

I think the question won’t be “does double vaccination reduce transmission” but “does it reduce it enough”
