Jolly good show. Did you have to sit in an "observation room" for 10 mins or so afterwards, n case you had a funny turn? I did, but didn't. (Well I did feel ever so slightly woozy just after, but that only lasted 30 secs or so.)

No. They just said if you had driven you had to sit in the car for 15 minutes.I have had a bit of reaction. Bad headache, but small price to pay.

I had my first jab (Oxford AZ) in January.
I had no reaction of any kind. I did not even feel the needle entering my arm.

I have had a fairly robust reaction - headache, pain at the injection site, aches all over and a very shivery non-sleep night. However, feel better this morning after some paracetamol and breakfast.

Partner, nothing!

Are you sure they actually did it?

I know of a number of people who haven't had any problems after having the vaccine. Needles don't hurt like they used to in days of yore.

For someone talking about data not dates, there seem to be.a number of dates. In general though this is at least a plan but thd all school pupils going back on the same day seems a bit big bang given previous concerns. Note, of course, this is England and in Scotland we have had a partial return today.

Looks like the EU don't really want the AZ vaccine after all.

It would appear that the impacts can be considerably higher than that as well with figures of 1 in 3 in Scotland and 1 in 6 in England, higher in some age groups comparatively. The link below covers this as well as the MSPs trying to get the Scottish Govt to change the priorities.

Having taken a walk around the Floating Harbour yesterday evening when it was sunny and relatively warm, I say vaccinate the teachers and send the children back to school now. The quayside round the harbour was rammed with groups of teenagers. They're not social distancing at all.

Do you think workers should not be permitted to refuse to have the vaccine? I am of the opinion that jobs, which include a lot of personal contact with people, like the NHS, surgeries, care homes, dentists and opticians should be vaccinated.

Expect a few of those. People are desperate to get their children back in school, at least they are if the colleague of mine with a child aged five is anything to go by.

Pubs and restaurants are to close for at least three weeks here in Finland as of 8th of March. Can't really understand this decision. Only a small percentage of infections have been traced to them. Oh well, I'll definitely spend next weekend down the pub before they close. After that it only be "kalsarikännit", as we say in Finnish.

I have been to the link and read the first part. I have not gone on to 'read more'. The inference could be made that he meant the statement to include actual 'ssacrifice of life' by a teacher, but unless he actually said those words, then the writer of the article cannot be sure that he did correctly infer that. Care should be taken by journalists to make sure they are not implying something that wasn't consciously or deliberately implied, in my opinion.
