From my research, the COVID mRNA vaccines are a completely new type of vaccine. No mRNA vaccine has ever been licensed for human use before. In essence, we have absolutely no idea what to expect from this vaccine. We have no idea if it will be effective or safe. As of 12/21... Regulatory experts convened by WHO from around the world and WHO’s own teams reviewed the data on the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine’s safety, efficacy and quality as part of a risk-versus-benefit analysis. The review found that the vaccine met the must-have criteria for safety and efficacy set out by WHO, and that the benefits of using the vaccine to address COVID-19 offset potential risks. https://www.who.int/news/item/31-12-2020-who-issues-its-first-emergency-use-validation-for-a-covid-19-vaccine-and-emphasizes-need-for-equitable-global-access#:~:text=The World Health Organization (WHO,outbreak began a year ago.

Maybe you need to do some fact checking? However, one assumes vaccines will sometimes have a negative outcome, as do all medicines, just have to understand risk profiles, as I had to do when deciding on treatment for my cancer. The cancer treatment I went ahead with had a risk of death of about 2-4%, along with some side effects, some of which I live with every day. In summary, nothing is without risk.

I assume that by 'them' you mean those in the UK illegally. As already said; if those here illegally know, or even suspect, that if they attend for the vaccine then they will be arrested and deported, then they will not turn up! The number of illegal immigrants in the UK is difficult to estimate. Not just because many are unknown to the authorities, but also because those with an illegal immigration status may include people who entered the UK illegally, overstayed their visas, have failed asylum claims but have yet to leave, including those appealing the decision and those not adhering to the conditions of their visas. People may only be in those categories temporarily, which also makes them difficult to count. This study by the Pew Research Centre estimated that there were between 800,000 and 1.2 million “unauthorised immigrants” in the UK in 2017. At the moment we do not know how long the various vaccines are effective for. Even at the lower estimate of 800,000, do we really want that many unvaccinated people wandering around who may be asymptomatic but still capable of infecting the rest of us because our vaccine has worn off? Especially when added to the anti-vaxxers and Covid deniers? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quick question....when you walk past someone whom you assume comes from Bangladesh, how do you know? They could well be British born a bred. Their family could have been in UK for generations.

Obviously I don't know. I meant all the shops, mosque, and people wearing masks made me feel like Bangladesh, where I was in 1992. Strange question, I have no idea what Thais think when they're walking through a tourist place. Incidentally, I went to open a bank account in a shopping mall yesterday and a woman came running over giving me special treatment and demanded my passport and work permit. However, she did apologize when I whipped out my Thai ID card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of Greeks to in Australia also. They usually didn’t have jobs in government departments. Most of them were on workers compo with bad backs. I had an ex girlfriend whose lawyer dad specialized in “Greek back” as he called it. No need for expats in Thailand to receive free vaccines. I don’t want or need to be supported by the Thai taxpayers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately illegal immigrants are too lucrative for too many. Perhaps if their employers and customers were banished and deported, there would be fewer. In the meantime, why would we deny vaccination to our residents? SC 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirineou Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 If you are going to get rid of the Virus you need to inoculate most of the people in the UK, Unless you are all immune to Covid 19 from migrants. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its normal for people to be comfortable with their own. I dont know many westerners that go out drinking with thai males. I see lots of westerners socializing together. Chinatowns in all big cities. Irish and English bars everywhere. Is there something wrong with it? Not for me. Their children are less afraid of the racists and tend to integrate easier. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
