Those who object loudly to any restriction on themselves always seem to be keenest for those on other people, for some reason. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quilp Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 When the 3rd booster shot is appointed and I'm told that this one will be a different version of the vaccine administered originally I will agree as I can't see any problem with it... How say ye all..? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTeapot Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 I say they should fuck off with a 3rd shot and get on with vaccinating the rest of the world. Here's an article that's made the BMJ that everyone should read. Profiteering from vaccine inequity: a crime against humanity? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May countries are just not ready to do mass vaccination programmes. We should be helping them but at the moment there are plenty of doses so we should use them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most powerful industry on the planet, convicted multiple times of fraud, bribery and corruption, gets accused of racketeering. Knock me down with a feather.

There have been loads of these over the last 60 years leading to the elimination of smallpox and diseases such as polio being reduced enormously. The international structures already exist.

Yes I do agree. I should have explained better. I understand that pfifffzer is ear marked for boosters leaving the AZ and the others (which are more easily transportable and manageable in the field) for the less developed countries (like Aus/NZ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
