I want the jab . . .

Hamsterchops

After days and weeks arguing with myself about the pros & cons of getting the Pfizer jab, I've decided that I'm gonna get it, when it becomes available ...

Pros are obvious, and I had been worried about any hidden long term negative affects, but 'hey' I'm gonna go for it and trust the scientists & pharmacists ✓

Get the jab & keep Covid away.

Cool story.

I'm not getting it cos they're putting microchips in it and they're going to control us all using 5G :pac:

Am I doing this right ?

Think they're planning on dispersing it through 5g anyway.

Can't get high speed broadband in my home in rural Ireland. Now the bloody Dubs are getting 5g injected into them. Typical.

I'm nervous enough because of Bill Gates involvement. Friend of mine got the jab and the very next day went out and bought the new xbox.
He was always a PlayStation man before that.

Superior conspiracy theory.

Well as long as we do not get the Madorna jab I am ok. Who knows what Trump had them put on that Vaccine. The Pfizer jab for me too please hopefully.

He should have no fear. Yes there have been allegations that Bill Gates has been more involved than he is letting on, but be safe in the knowledge that this is a man who has been dealing with a constant stream of viruses since Windows 95.

Class act. Huge respect, and I say this as a Johnson and Johnson fan.

What's the pay and conditions like? Holiday entitlements?

And as a completely off topic comment- why don't people read thread titles properly before wading in with a reply?

They took our jabs!

I guess because this is after hours, which seems to be even more crazy & off its rocker than normal.

My fault for starting this thread here as I should have posted this in Current Affairs or the Covid thread (if I wanted people's true feelings) and ideas re getting the vaccine.

paw patrol

i'd never wish harm on anybody but when i see people like in this thread openly mock people with concerns about a hastily made vaccine , part of me wish there was a side effect...3 months of uncontrollable diarrhea that kicked in after 6 months just to ensure enough internet heroes took the vaccine. that would be good.

You could argue that it was made in haste if they skipped some stages of testing etc, but they didn't.
Instead of running them in sequence, they ran the trials in parallel and that obviously cuts down some time.
Add to that the huge uptake in donated CPU time that helped them cut down on the time it takes to select viable vaccine candidates etc.

Quick only means dodgy if they cut corners, and there's no evidence as yet that that is the case.

I'd get it this afternoon if I could, and sign up to whatever passport / certificate will inevitably be proposed

Reminds me of the time I was getting a tetanus vaccine. The previous time I'd got it on my arse, so I made the mistaken assumption that it would be the same, and so whipped my trousers down. The nurse turned around, looked an me and almost screaming what are you doing???!!!

Yeah - so I guess things have moved on and they give it in the arm now.

Ultrflat

Haven't seen my parents in 19 months The moment I can pay for it I'm getting it.

Pay for it?

The Covid vaccine is free, isn't it?

I'd quite happily have given Madonna a jab back in the day. Now, not so much...

You don't think you could slip your doctor a fifty to jab you quick?

It's still a country of who you know.

Big bag of jabs with the lads.

Anyone even remotely interested in discussing getting the Covid vaccine?

Face down, ass up.

Whats hilarious?

Each Pfizer vial has 6 doses. They were Authorised to draw 5 doses from each vial.

Some doctors were drawing 6, but some sticking at 5.
You think all those extra cc's are being poured down the sink?
Don't be naieve.

Let me get this straight: You want everyone, including all the OAP's, the vulnerable in society, the front line health workers to get uncontrollable diarrhea because 3 people in this thread mocked someone?
That's reasonable

Not reasonable is an understatement, it's turned into a complete mess.
Certainly hasn't gone as well as expected in getting feedback re getting the vaccine.

My fault for posting it in After Hours.

If you're being serious, then I think the above is a hilarious post.
If you're taking the piss, then it's still funny, but not quite as much.

For what it's worth, I'll be lining up for the jab too, with no qualms.
Well done on your change of heart.
The more individuals who take the vaccine, the better it will be for society as a whole.

Ignore the anti-vaxxers, the vast majority of whom are just cranks, malcontents and tin foil-hatted eejits!

There is already a vaccine thread in the COVID forum, is there not?

Mr Meanor

“We have one dose left — is there anyone in the building who wants it?”

(NY Post reporter) I jumped and screamed, “Me!”

Then gives out about it!

Look up "The Spirit of Science | Jay Bhattacharya" on youtube

there are good reasons to be concerned and agree with the previous poster that making fun of anybody hat seems concerned is ridiculous.

Why can't people be bothered to actually do some reading and see the science behind it?

It wasn't rushed. It was fast, yes but everything was done properly and thoroughly rigorously. In-depth clinical trials, approved by many boards and yet we still get armchair experts saying they're suspicious of it. You literally had a global effort dedicated to it. Labs, universities, pharmaceutical companies, years of research already conducted on similar disease such as Sars outbreak of 2003.

But yet, get the tinfoil hat out and ignore all that.

And to those, I say go f******* read a bit and have a bit of comprehension what it is you're against.

You are against nothing, it's just so inherently arrogant they people live in a world built up because of the logical, factual based process of science and still have the audacity to say such stupid things.

The science is there. The results are there. The methodology has been followed. But no. Your 5 minutes of light reading and you're against it.

So yes, we will all make fun of you if you keep spewing nonsense that doesn't have anything to back it up with. Sick of people like this having the temerity to think they know better when they know nothing at all.
