Hello everyone,

How are you today?

The pharmaceutical groups Pfizer (USA) and BioNTech (Germany) announced on Monday 9 November that their vaccine candidate is 90% "effective" in preventing Covid-19 infections, according to preliminary results of their large-scale phase 3 trial, which is still ongoing.

What do you think about this? Do you plan to be vaccinated as soon as the COVID-19 vaccine is on the market?

Feel free to discuss and share in the comments below!

Take care,

Courtney

This link is to the CDC adverse reactions register as here in the U.K. it’s being withheld.
I tried to copy and paste but it won’t accept the paste

It’s for “ vaers“

wonder.cdc.gov

it’s scary reading and I for 1 will take my chances as it’s not even a vaccine, it’s a treatment with limited efficacy.

@NannieAnn , I have settled for this site for vaccine as it is nearest to me, however still too far for me to walk and two buses away which I am advised not to use due to sheilding. My own Gp is two buses away also. A new site opening next week is out of my travel range . I have two health issues that impact me getting to the necessary venues, Unfortunately our ring and ride service is only able to do emergency traval during lockdown. Patient ambulance services are not for this type of medical need either.We have always said we need a taxi company who will do special rates for disabled to at least get to medical appointments. Voluntary drivers do a brilliant job but cannot meet the demand in the case of vaccine patients and sometimes even those with family don't have transport , or the driver may be ill ect. Who knows how things will go in future as the services from NHS become more digital & DIY as I call it. Even self help groups cannot meet in lockdown situiations can they? or help each other to get to venues for vaccine.

My husband has just received notification from our GP to book an appointment to have his first vaccine done. I am thrilled to see the text on his mobile phone.

I have already phoned the practice and made an appointment for him to be seen to in February, 2021... Roll on the vaccine and hope my turn comes soon!

@Ehlana‍

Have you looked at the email Courtney sent, all about Corona Virus and Vaccine. There are several links you can click on to read and there are questions and answers about the vaccine. I suggest you read that. It might answer your question Under special circumstances some one can come out to your home to give you the vaccine. Look into it. Hope this helps. Good luck

Under certain circumstances, some one can come home to give you the vaccine. Look into it. Read the email Courtney sent out with all the details and several links to look up. There are Q&A in there as well. Why don't you give it a try. Good luck

I definitely want the vacation I have think it’s the only we can get back to some kind of normal life I don’t think things will ever be the same again but any kind of normal has got to be better than worrying all the time 😀

@Courtney_J I received the Oxford vaccine two weeks ago and I have had no adverse reaction at all not even a red arm , now the French President is trying to belittle the Oxford vaccine for political reasons , this man is dangerous and should resign , it all to do with Brexit , shame on him ?
