This question goes out those who took the 2 jabs? Will you you take it to get back to normality? Or are you sick of the government moving the goalposts constantly?
The countries that were first in the race to vaccinate and boost will likely end up last to exit COVID
That is the direction this taking now
My body my booster!
oh yes they do. Panto season isn’t it.
Egghead Donnelly cancelled them.

The joys of the jolly ole free market. Patents protected to maintain profits.
Am on Continent, took it within 48h of receiving the booster invite.
I had the 1-dose Janssen (J&J), and from anecdotal conversations, it looks like 1-doser like me have been prioritised for the booster programme.
I’d had a bad-ish reaction to the original vacc (call it man flu, 48h thing).
The booster I got was Pfizer (Comirnaty), zero reaction to it. Not-a-one.
It’s well-documented by now, across media reports trailing the ongoing wave, that the vaccines (original, 2 doses) have an in vivo shelf life of a few months. Several ICU cases in France were recently highlighted as catching Covid towards the end of that period, days before they were scheduled to get their booster.
You can choose to believe or disbelieve governments as you see fit. Personally, I’m with science rather than politicians, with a side helping of social responsibility.
Yep read all comments to get an overview of uprising issues.
All aboard the Pfizer express sheeple.
Yes, they do.
No, they don't.
I’m very unsure as to whether I’ll get the booster when it’s my turn. After the second Pfizer I had a tingly left arm and was floored with fatigue for 2-3 weeks. I’m also uneasy as to how many or how often we’ll need to take the shots going forward.
Don't know. But I know I'm not getting it.
This is just plain misinformation.
It's not. It is merely an assumption on the part of others that they do. It's most certainly entirely unproven.
I see the O.J. Simpson defence strategy here. Challenge absolutely everything despite how clear the facts are to exhaust the other side and muddy waters.
scientific proof please ...yawnn...
It's up to you to conclusively prove that they do.
How are things up there in the UK tonight?
Its usually up to the poster who makes a statement of fact to back it up instead of asking for proof.
I don't know. I'm in Ireland.
They only offer pfizer to my age group so not a chance. If you haven't got the third eventually be classed as unvaccinated and the cert expires after a certain time without the booster
The top half though not the republic if memory serves me correctly? So the rules down here and your rants about totalitarian regimes etc. don't really apply to the republic.
I was happy enough to take the earlier two shots but I don't like the way those who opt not to take a vaccine are being restricted in normal life. Therefore I will wait to see these restrictions removed before considering a booster.
Got mine today.
Biggest challenge in Africa is the population not taking the vaccine and Govts uninterested in giving it.
Supply is not the big issue.
Got my booster today and I keep hearing Bill Gates telling me to do stuff. I’m scared.
Bullshit.
your talking bullshit.
There are peer reviewed papers showing vaccines do reduce transmission.
Who are you to say they don’t? what qualifications have you got to be telling people vaccines don’t stop transmission?
They should just give us booster loyalty cards and after your 10th booster you get a free kettle or something
Really, do you think there is correlation between the two events? Are you going to be some how better protected as a result? Or do you think anyone gives a fig if you don’t decide to get it?
