Are they ineffective for the over sixties too?

Perhaps the China vaccine is just an insurance that if the virus didn't get you the vaccine would. I mean, got to have a backup plan, eh?

[nausea]

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.

I saw this dated 15 April. I don't know which vaccine J&J produce?

"A federal vaccine advisory committee said Wednesday it wanted more data before deciding whether to resume use of Johnson & Johnson’s coronavirus vaccine, leaving in place a pause that federal officials had recommended because of a rare and severe type of blood clot identified so far among six of the 7.5 million people who received the shot."

Before I get vaccinated I want a cast iron guarantee from the hospital that they will cover any and all expenses arising from a 'sudden mystery illness' occurring within 30 days of the injection.

 

As a foreigner, it'd be foolish to get injected in Thailand without that guarantee.

Expand  

 

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.

So maybe you'd like to withdraw this piece of amateur medical advice. Mixing medications without medical advice is not a good idea.

I would like very much to get the jab ,but not the Sinovac even if it was free

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.

This is just wrong on so many levels.  As with ALL things manufactured in China it is shoddy and poorly made without any real testing.  This vaccine should be barred from use.

No where does it say that a vaccine prevents a person from contracting the virus, a vaccine is not the same as mosquito repellent!

Sinovac just needs some better marketing.  Why not rename the vaccine, ‘Covid-21’?

With the amount that is  being used, something would have been said.

Posted beginning of this month.

 

Sinovac says it has delivered some 200 million doses of its vaccine to more than 20 countries. The company estimates more than 100 million doses have been administered in vaccination campaigns around the world.

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.
