I did do a gentle work out today, but just 15 minutes at level 1 on my cross trainer, rather than the usual High Intensity version and no other exercises. So, looking good so far...

All come in for assessment, praise and criticism - scientists, the EU, other countries, the NHS and of course our government.

BBrown did have a point. It could of took off. Try and keep the politics relevant please.
I am NO fan of the government - or the other lot - or ANY lot. But I find jibes about getting eyesight tested at a castle completely boring and nothing to do with the conversation. For clarity I do not think he should of quit --no unelected adviser/sage/guru should of been there in the first place. Back on subject - news today headlines of vaxing 6 year olds :eek How many people are comfortable with that.

I suppose it may eventually become part of the general vaccination programme, and added to the list that children have in their early years.

Well I know would be very reluctant to put my kids forward for it if they do. I can't really see the point of vaccinating children that young when then very rarely ever catch it and even when they do barely any actually get ill. I think it would be more obviously to vaccinate secondary school "children" first as they seem to be one of the worst spreaders.

[/quote] Yes but let's be fair its a bit of a different scenario. As an adult I can weigh up any potential risks and any possibility that it may harm me later in life and make a decision. Where as for my children they have their whole lives ahead of then for any adverse effects to happen. As a father of a young girl I can't even imagine the anguish if I forced the jab on her now only to find out in 10 years that an unknown side effect is sterility or some other kind of problems that would stop her having kids. And before you say it... I know the scientists say its safe but they said that about the Thalidomide too and look how that turned out. I'm just not certain I would be willing to risk something like that for a vaccine against an illness that for the most part isn't going to hurt her. I would rather she waited until she could make that choice herself, by which time the vaccine would have been in circulation for quite a few years and potentially any long term issues (or lack of) will be known

So what's wrong with adults applying that same principle to themselves. Not aimed at you -by the way. These vaccines as far as I can find out are actually classed as experimental until full process is carried out and that wont be until 2023 -- anyone please check.

Any medical drug is classed as "experimental" for a condition until it has been subject to a full Double-Blind test where half the subjects are given the drug and the other half are given a placebo, but neither the patient, nor the doctors who are administering it know which is which. That doesn't stop many drugs being given perfectly successfully "Off label" for conditions that they haven't been officially approved for.

Latest from the EU they are basically blaming the UK Kent strain for the spread :z
How come they are suffering more from it that we are. Its AstraZeneca's fault -- its the UK's fault (failure to export a vax they didn't want)-- Its Hungary's fault -- Its Kent's fault. :rolleyes Anyone's but themselves.

48 (and a bit) hours later and I'm fine :thumbup
Yesterday evening I was pretty tired, so snoozed for an hour or two, but later on I was tired again and went to bed before midnight (when usually it's gone 2am!) I slept for over 9 hours instead of my usual 6-7 hours, but woke up feeling fine. I did a light 15 minutes on my rowing machine in the early afternoon and was ok with that and I'm feeling ok now, so I guess I'm one of the 90% who didn't get any untoward reaction.

With more and more talk now of vaccine passports for the pub or footy, saga cruises requiring proof. I think its time to remind every one what I said back in 11th November 2020. The very first post on this thread.

I received my vax invitation via post but I don't think I am eligible because I do not see myself represented on the accompanying leaflet.
