For those who won't read the article:



If that's true, that's tremendous.

Most likely is far too vague he is bluffing.

Not great news if true. Another u-turn coming?

We should’ve taken the advice from those making the vaccine instead of just deciding not to give the second jab for weeks.

Theyre going to balls this whole thing up aren’t they?

The longer they leave it then the more of a gamble it becomes. They will have no choice but to reverse ASAP and get the numbers up as high as possible! With the drop in cases all being well it releases a tiny but of pressure.

Oxford had data up to 26 weeks but the recommended time for the Oxford vaccine is 12 weeks. The Pfizer vaccine was 3 weeks purely because that was the only data that Pfizer had.

It sounds like supply is slowing.

What makes you think that?

The important stat is that it is 100% effective in preventing hospitalisations and death.

With millions being vaccinated we will soon be able to confirm this.

But I read on here that all the politicians were lying when they said that supply issues would affect roll out of the vaccine in the UK....is this not the case now?

I seem to remember that the usual anti-Conservative brigade were very quick to leap to the defence of the pharma companies who were saying 'there are no supply issues'.

I think the sample size was something like 11 people or an equally low number......

From the same tweet:

" 9) TO BE CLEAR—Still take the vaccine. It should not be affected too much. Maybe a few % drop in efficacy — but 80-95% is still better than 0% protection if you don’t take it! "

The immunity from catching Covid-19 may not last too long anyway so that is another reason why we need the vaccine as this produces stronger and broader immune response.

there was a study from Newcastle Hospitals that nobody of the 11,000 staff who had a +ive PCR test or antibody test in the first wave (up to June/July) tested positive in the 2nd wave in late summer/Autumn and they intimated it was likely antibodies prevented infection for at least 6 months. Add in T-cell memory and there is a degree of protection from previous disease and the fact re-infection rates worldwide are very low which would support a period of natural immunity.

Vaccine adds another layer of immunity too as you say the immune response appears to be greater than from naturally acquired immunity
