Such a waste.

These anti-vaxxers are really scumbags. Surely they can be prosecuted for manslaughter in this instance?

They fucking should be.

This is beyond belief. What on earth is going on in their heads?

Just watched BBC news showing table of select vaccinated countries by %.

UK was 5th with 68%...below it Netherlands on 64%.

yet the official Dutch Health service reporting approx 80% ....so then...someone not telling the truth..surely not the BBC......

According to the FT/ Our World in Data

Fully Vaccinated

Netherlands is 62.9 and the UK 66.6

Strangely, the Our World in Data website is a little different - UK on 65%, NL on 64%.

Very notable how quickly Aus and NZ have caught up after such a slow start. NZ now ahead of the US for one or two doses (though still quite a bit behind on fully vaccinated of course).

Question for those who might know. If you test positive for Covid, and have to take a PCR test 3 weeks later for travel and then another 3 days later, how likely are you to test positive on one of those two tests?

Think it’s 50% would still test positive after 4 weeks. It depends a lot on age and severity of the infection though, so that 50% in 4 weeks is likely from a group of patients early in the pandemic who would have had severe infection for the most part - so probably overestimate the average time.

Your covid pass for international travel should have both your current vaccination status and whether or not you had a confirmed positive test in the previous 180 days. So it’s worth downloading that NHS app to get that pass for him - is he over 16?

[rob1966]

No he's only 13 and Cyprus have officially told me they only accept the EU covid recovery certificate, so he is treated as unvaccinated, another Brexit win

He's gone quite rough with it now, deep cough and looks tired and drawn.

Is it now confirmed that there are no real concerns over getting the vaccine when pregnant?

Are you telling us something, KH? 

As far as I know, there is no credible evidence of complications in pregnant women, but keep in mind that it's too early in the game. As far as I know, none of the vaccines are approved on a regular basis (at least in the US), they are approved on emergency provisions. The data for the regular population are flooding in, but even they are not 100%v vetted. Pregnant women were initially excluded from testing and discouraged to get the vaccine on precautionary grounds, so the data set is small. I think everyone has to make an individual decision based on the risk group they are in.

I friend of mine had her first vaccine in June some point and is now 14 weeks pregnant with twins. She was asking me today whether any news had filtered through around all this being peer reviewed. Her GP has said to take it.

This is the hardest decision, and her GP would be a better source of information than anyone here. She's got some immunity two weeks after the first vaccine, usually about 60-70% of the antibody level if you survived Covid without a vaccine. But the immunity degrades over time depending on the person (three months since June). The second vaccine would bring the antibodies to 120% of the no-vaccine post-Covid level, but is that worth the unknown risk? Depending on her lifestyle (risk of exposure) and her health (known risk factors), she may chose either way. She does have some immunity.

[stoa]

As far as I know, none of the vaccines are approved on a regular basis (at least in the US), they are approved on emergency provisions.

In Europe the vaccines have been approved according to the regular process and no emergency approvals have been granted. Don't know about the UK, but the Germans recommend vaccinations for pregnant women after the 13th week of pregnancy. They say that while there is not a lot of data about the vaccinations during pregnancy, there are no signs that they have a negative effect on either the woman or the developing child, while pregnant women have a higher risk of getting a more severe case of Covid compared to non-pregnant women. Therefore, they recommend vaccinations. I think it's the same here in Austria.

The Pfizer vaccine is fully approved by the FDA as of last month, Moderna and J&J are still under Emergency Use.

Here’s a regularly updated document of all peer reviewed knowledge of the vaccines, covid, pregnancy and post birth. The best source I’ve seen for this question which is obviously asked a lot.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_wHIYX-tGkGBPwuax7N8BxZPR4PTTCDm/view

Anecdotally, I know there are a lot of studies that are being undertaken at the moment into the effects of covid on pregnant women which have really only become possible due to the large numbers of pregnant women entering hospital for covid treatment. Obviously, of course, the threshold for admitting a pregnant woman is far lower than admitting a middle-aged man like myself, but they are making up a substantial proportion of the numbers that have been entering hospital these last couple of months.

Edit: should add that Viki Male is someone you should recommend your friend follows on Twitter for some great breakdowns of the latest research into their very question.

There is. But let's be clear - its should be aimed at the snake oil salesmen who have their fold up demonstrations pinned to their motorhome and move from town to town espousing - let's be blunt - their bullshit - day in, day out.

[rob1966]

Lot of hate in here.

Yes there is, I do hate people who have caused the deaths of innocent people by peddling lies, bullshit and shite they read on Facebook. They are pushing their own agendas while killing people. There was a fella the other week, the anti vaxxers propaganda put doubts in his mind, he didn't get the vaccine, he's now dead. This is happening everywhere. They have no excuse for what they are doing.

I also have a lot of love for the wonderful people who created the vaccines, our NHS staff who sorted us out the volunteers who work at the clinics, the doctors, nurses and all other staff who have battled through this to care for patients and continue to now deal with those who refused the vaccine and are now in hospital. I feel extremely grateful to the staff who man the testing centres, they are working every day coming into contact with people with the virus.

Interesting how society twists perceptions over time... including that of the guillotine. Back in the day, it was considered the most advanced instrument to deliver a death sentence without causing pain and suffering as opposed to death by a firing squad or hanging.

[didi shamone]

Just read the story about the Donegal covid patient sprung from hospital by his anti vaccine "buddies". To say its bizarre is an understatement. Hopefully they can be charged with manslaughter but perhaps his being complicit in it will save their bacon.
They're a group of weirdos called "the common law information centre" lead by an Italian right wing weapon called Antonio Mureddu. The whole thing is on video apparently.

The story is in the Irish Sunday independent.

What you wanted wasn't what I asked. You can't expect a site to moderate the comments you want moderated when you aren't reporting those comments yourself. Want to bring something to the attention if the mods? Then you need to report it.

I got sent the video last week. Made my blood boil listening to the c*nt. Basically you could see the poor fella who died gasping for air as he sat in a chair with a doctor by his side strongly advising against listening to said c*nt and leaving the hospital. Said c*nt then claims he is his doctor and that if he stayed in hospital they would kill him. The actual doctor then says what he is saying is wrong and is very dangerous, and that if he left, he could die. A day or so later he was back in hospital in a coma. It's all on camera, so surely the scumbag in question should be arrested and charged with falsifying credentials at the very least. If a real doctor can be charged with malconduct, why can't he?
