Covid vaccine anyone?

[Gymbunny]

Who is keen getting the Covid vaccine when it becomes available?

[Teri23]

Not for me :worked_till_5am:

[Esme]

No, they don’t know enough about the virus to be making a vaccine for it!

[Alf]

No, I’m happy to do all the social distancing, wear face cob]Verona’s and wash hands, but not the vaccine and certainly not this soon. The virus is changing and we know little about it, so know, I won’t be putting myself forward for it.

[Amelia]

I would, but I’d like mine 12 months after the first people get there’s, just to observe the side effects.

[Dylis]

I hope they don’t try and enforce it. I can’t say I would rush to have it, I think this virus has a long way to go yet!

[Carol78]

They wouldn’t produce a vaccine that wasn’t safe because otherwise the minute people started reporting problems, there would be no uptake of the vaccine and that would make the Government look stupid.

So I would take it.

[Joolz]

I would take it, surely they would have to do extensive human trials before it became regularly available?

You’d think wouldn’t you! :doh but normally to get a drug on the market takes years and years, sometimes up to 10 years following trials etc, this is being produced and shipped out with 1 year! I’ll wait until batch 5 :sly:

[Ely]

It looks like it’s being rushed out, the latest news is that it is being tested on African and Brazilians because there’s not enough people in the UK with Covid!

[Mummy2Two]

I don’t like the idea of how quickly this is being rushed out, and this stupid notion of racing to be the first country to get a vaccine. Why don’t we sit it out, and watch the effects of the vaccines in other countries first!

I think we need to take a chance, if you sit it out you might get Covid and have a severe case and wish you had received the vaccine but then you could have severe side effects from the vaccine. Time will tell I suppose

I’d rather wait and see if others get side effects first! Back of the queue for me!
