Popular Post Guderian Posted March 16, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 16, 2021 The risks from the AZ shot are being massively overplayed by national European leaders, and for an obvious reason. They've made a complete cock-up of their vaccination programmes so need a whipping boy to divert attention away from their own incompetence, and they think they've found one in AZ. The EU medicine regulator still says that it regards the AZ vaccine as safe, and the British have used it more than anybody and have actually found fewer incidents of blood clotting than they would normally expect. And as for deciding to rely instead on the Russian vaccine, well since Europe already relies on Russia for most of its gas supplies, why not simply save time and hand over the keys to Europe to your new best mate, Vlad. 8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. AstraZeneca didn't let them jump the queue after they screwed up their procurement process so now they are trying to destroy it's reputation. Sad, but not surprising. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ukrules Posted March 16, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 16, 2021 This is the route out of the COVID situation. I'm glad Anutin / Prayuth have risen above the hysterics we're seeing in the EU, they are to be congratulated for that - a rare occurrence. The EU is going to pay a huge price for their hesitancy in the coming 12 months. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to see they understand that statistically the Oxford jab lowers your risk of developing blood clots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A long read, but worth taking the time to do so. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-56360646 A very interesting article and for what it's worth, I absolutely agree. I suggest that those countries that have suspended the use of Astra Zeneca vaccine read it.

A staggering 0.0002%. I have a better chance of being struck by lightening, but yes of course its just drama for Astra Zeneca vaccine???? Quote One of the issues that needs to be considered is how common thromboembolism is anyway. A recent paper from Oklahoma, in the US investigated the incidence of this condition during 2012 2013 and 2014 (Wendelboe AM, Campbell J, Ding K, Bratzler DW, Beckman MG, Reyes NL, Raskob GE. Incidence of Venous Thromboembolism in a Racially Diverse Population of Oklahoma County, Oklahoma. Thrombosis and haemostasis. 2021). The biggest factor affecting the incidence of thromboembolism in the community was age. The incidence of venous thromboembolism in the >80 years age group was 13.16, in the 70-79 age group 7.76 and in the 60-69 age group 5.10 per 1000 person years. So for every 1 million people immunised in these age groups we would expect to see about 1097, 645 and 425 episodes of thromboembolism in the month after immunization anyway. Now we do not know whether there was any particular aspect of the thromboembolic events in the recent reports from Europe that would make those cases more unusual and so more concerning. in a population of 17 million (the number of people vaccinated) an expected number of blood clots would be 1,500 to 3,000 per month so 37 cases means that the vaccination gives a 97% reduction in risk not an increase 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thaibreaker Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 1 hour ago, KhunBENQ said: They obviously did, like from the UK where millions have been vaccinated and no proof that the blood cloths are related to the vaccine. Not their fault that the Englishmen cannot put two and two together. In Norway another case has been detected yesterday, and even one death after the AZ was taken. Norwegian doctors say that everything is pointing that way, but it is hard to prove. If someone choose to look the other way, that is on them.

Surasak Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 "Today I'm boosting confidence for the general public," Prayuth told reporters at Government House, before he received a shot in his left arm. Two ways of looking at this statement. "I'm going first to show the people it is Okay". Or, "It's me first as I don't want any contamination from anything you lot have handled". There is of course the Thai way. "ME FIRST, ME FIRST". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post barney42bb Posted March 16, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 16, 2021 Just another cynical ploy by the EU to bash The UK for Brexit. Despite its own European Regulators,and WHO declaring it safe. UK has 3 options.....and a 4th in September when the single shot has been approved. UK and USA leading The World with The Vaccine Rollout.... Suck it up Mr Barnier. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeall Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 5 hours ago, ThailandRyan said: Sodium pentathol is a barbiturate drug medically used as a short-acting general anaesthetic. As a side effect at low doses, it lowers the inhibitions of those into whom it is injected. Of course it was used in the past as for what you say, but it is used to lower inhibitions and relax patients. oh dear..... well, I got it... good one..
