nausea Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 It's worrying. I guess I'll wait until I can get my hands on whatever my dad got in the UK; presumably, if he can take it at 90+, I can take it at 66. I'm assuming we're genetically similar, I'd have to ask my dear old mum to be sure, but that would take a seance. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a foreigner, it'd be foolish to get injected in Thailand without that guarantee. But of course you won't get it. That's my fear. I might be forced to get a shot to keep my visa but then any complications i have to pay for. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of the current injections available meet the definition of 'vaccine'. I strongly disagree! A vaccine helps your body defend against the worst symptoms of the disease, often this means there will be no symptoms at all, it does not prevent you from contracting the disease in the first place. EDIT TO ADD: my bad, I should have written the word virus, not the word disease, but I think it was clear what was intended.

Popular Post Bangkok Barry Posted April 22, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 22, 2021 (edited) 1 hour ago, Nojohndoe said: Incredibly depressing to witness the continued level of ignorance displayed by so many who constantly declare superior intelligence ! No vaccine is claimed to 100% prevent infection ! All vaccines have shown various efficacy in a range from 50<90+ against the original and predominant strains apart from the South African strain. All the vaccines have demonstrated a 100% reduction in the severity of symptoms and death otherwise. Maybe no vaccine can be 100 percent effective, but I'd want a lot better than what Sinovac offers. From Wednesday's London Times: China's Sinovac vaccine, which is widely used in the developing world, offers little protection until after the second dose according to Chilean scientists. The jab was only 16 per cent effective in guarding against Covid-19 after one dose, rising to 67 per cent efficacy after the second dose, according to a study of 10.5 million people. And that is not the usual pointless 'poll' result we are usually fed after 300 people were asked. This is over 10 million who were checked.
