I had the AZ original double jab. It's often quoted that a 'mix' of brands increases your protection. I've been getting flu jabs for over 20 years, never had a 2nd thought about any vaccine. So I now have a mixture of AZ and Pfeizer. It's 'free' and I'm very tolerant of all meds I've ever had, so for me, why not. I respect your decision though... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's often quoted that a 'mix' of brands increases your protection.聽 Yes, likewise, everything I've seen suggests a "cocktail" of types gives you more protection. I have seen something about the AZ being given as a booster, but I think that's in cases where the individual can't take the Pfizer or Moderna for some medical reason, or in a situation where it's the only thing available. As before, though, it's a case of you get what you're given. Clearly, as a Yorkshireman, I'm not going to turn down a free jab!. 聽 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd seen the statement by Professor Gilbert which is mentioned in this article and was I think made while the scope and extent of the booster campaign was still under consideration. She was saying a booster may not be necessary for some people, but seemed to be suggesting that it would be a good idea for us older types, plus those who have underlying conditions or are having treatment which compromised their natural immunity. https://abcnews.go.com/Health/wireStory/covid-vaccine-creator-mass-boosters-unnecessary-79935446 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MancMenace Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Had covid beat covid, had worse colds to be honest so no I won't be having the vaccine, natural immunity for the win. I know of people who are vaccinated and up to date on their 90th booster and still caught Covid again and I was in the presence of one and never caught it from her a second time. If you wanna have it go for it and if you dont then dont but what I would say is lets not aid in the division calling for people to lose out on regular freedoms such as leisure and travel because of their decision to trust their immune system as oppose to governments and pharma companies, its not selfish, if the vaccine and face mask actually work then its self inflicted and nobody elses business. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenFord Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 We could always start a discussion on how ludicrous 'vaccine passports' are! Given that those double jabbed with booster (like me) can still pass it on, what's the f*ckin' point!! Nothing more than political theater, like the wearing of face coverings... 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
