I am beginning to wonder why we have so many Covid cases with so many people vaccinated.
How many "breakthrough infections" are being recorded daily. Is it with people who got the AstraZeneca vaccination?
Why aren't we being told this information?
I would imagine that it would be a simple question to ask the infected person who has been vaccinated, what type of vaccine they were given? This information could then be used to target individuals who might need a booster.Why aren't we being told? Well, you are assuming we have even this information?
I think that's more down to a lack of understanding among some who thought they would be a silver bullet. The medical community were always clear that wouldn't be the case, but some just didn't want to hear it. The data is out there to show how effective they were in preventing death.Methinks the vaccines generally over promised and under delivered.
At first reading that might seem like the best call, but you have to consider the role of children as transmitters of the disease to parents / grandparents. In my extended family, the majority of cases trace back to the kids.The vaccinations seem to have made no difference to death rate amongst children and a negligible difference to under 50's. A more equitable global distribution targetted at over 50's and at-risk groups was perhaps the way to go.
Vaccination did prevent (significantly reduce) infection and transmission for variants prior to Omicron, during the months after vaccination when antibodies were present (as opposed to longer lasting memory cells).Yes, children were transmitters, as were we all. But the vaccination did not prevent infection or transmission. I don't know the numbers but I suspect that the vast majority of the population had Covid. 7 of 8 people in my house had it. Personally, I had 3 jabs and 2 doses of Covid.
There is no doubt that vaccination reduced transmission and therefore infection rates, but as above, the level of protection decreased over time and with the new variants.Yes, children were transmitters, as were we all. But the vaccination did not prevent infection or transmission.
Well the figures are available by a simple Google search, officially 1.6m people have had covid 19 but I suspect that its probably more but even at 25% more that 2m, I don't think it's that high but there is probably a considerable amount of people who didn't report symptoms online. Even at 2m and a population of 5.2m isn't even a majority let alone a " vast majority ". The " vast majority " would apply to the vaccine take up at over 90%Yes, children were transmitters, as were we all. But the vaccination did not prevent infection or transmission. I don't know the numbers but I suspect that the vast majority of the population had Covid. 7 of 8 people in my house had it. Personally, I had 3 jabs and 2 doses of Covid.
That's how I felt after my first Pfizer vaccine...A friend had no problems with his first two vaccinations nor with his booster. He went for his second booster recently and was very unwell, with flu like symptoms for 24 hours. Is this common?
Is there a choice available? I'm due for my second booster soon.By any chance was this booster Moderna and previous were Pfizer?
