Lets hope it delivers what it promises.  

[Barry343]

Just as other countries have halted  AstraZeneca vaccine because of problems that have occurred in Europe.

[starky]

Wow so 2 million doses of which some vaccines you need 2 for a country of what ? 70 million? With 61 million produced sometime after June? So still not even half the country. And I will refrain from discussing who is producing it or whether it's distribution will be free

I hardly doubt it.

Just another massive over exaggeration from countries over absolutely nothing.

As I understood it, there were several batches which are in question. As for my place, 80% was already used anyways, b4 they reacted.

Or just conning. Would like to see the video to see if it isn't just a Netanyahu performance.

I have seen on tv (outside Thailand) special syringes which retract as one push on it as one applies it on the arm, it looks like the real thing but the needle does not not gets in!

TBH Europe is in a <deleted>show over their vacc programme and need a distraction, even their own EMA said the was no problem along with the WHO. The UK average number of blood clots has even gone down ! (not saying that was the vaccine) They are so messed up Italy has stopped using it but also won't allow any AZ to leave their Country to go to Aus, go figure.

Videos and/or photos mean nothing.  The PM received a shot of something.  That is the only information that you can factually know by observation <period>

That's called a safety syringe and the needle retracts after the dose is given, so the unit can be safely disposed of without the risk of needle injuries.

wonder if Sodium pentothal was needed, to at least make him relax before the injection so he didn't scream like a baby.  

No, I and a few others want to hear the scream.

Our Leader told a newspaper: "I am an example today." Indeed he is, and has been for quite a long time..................................

Great ...that’s what ill need to prove i got vaccinated to get the “vaccine passport “.   The CDC card will just not do 

[anchadian]

The male nurse giving the vaccine looks as if he's looking to his left and not concentrating.

The PM's right hand is shaking.  Hope is not thinking a blood clot is on its way.

All are clapping and for what?

Another ridiculous photo shoot.

A post using a trolling image has been removed. 

[jossthaifarang]

I'm willing to bet if there was in fact a covid vaccine in that syringe, it was Sinovac. They will give the remaining Astrzenica to the poorest in the population to test it.

No way these AS5 clown's would take a chance like that with all the hype at the moment...

I am not sure what all the scaremongering in Europe is about I and millions of other have had this vaccine in the UK. 37 people out of 17 million have had a reaction..That is going to Happen with any Vaccine.

More importantly correlation is not causation.
 

There have been several deaths after vaccination, but being hit by a train is not as a result of vaccination.
 

There is no evidence that vaccines have caused blood clots or deaths.

Should the patients with blood clots be invested? Of course they should. Should deaths have a post-mortem or be autopsied? Absolutely.

will there be a relationship? Probably not, but we should wait until there is data.

I would be happy to have an Oxford AstraZeneca jab but here there will be no general vaccination until June. I am envious of the U.K. from that point.

[Black Angus]

Out off approx. 40 million shots given in the UK the clot rate is officially 25/30 people that have had a clot and that has not been proven to be connected to the jab. .0009% is still worth worth the risk Have had mine no side effects.

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.

Well somebody has to be the Guinea Pigs.
