So If A Covid Vaccine Were Released Tomorrow..

To be fair, alleged educated people are in government.. and look how that's ended up.

I believe this is a particular problem in western society in which we measure intellect by education. Simply isn't the case.

Most Uni grads I meet these days seem to have the upstairs minerals of Dianne Abbott on a bad day

 

The other way round then, stop people voting that are well educated, or have spent most of their lives in education.

Perhaps only allow people to vote that have 'real world' experience ?

how sweet to be an idiot ...........

 

Just been looking at all Pfizer’s lawsuits they’ve had against them off people who have been affected with other drugs they manufacture , on one drug alone they settled cases adding up to a £1 billion

 

As usual Mogg spews lies and bollocks.

The UK remains under the remit of the EMA until the end of the Brexit transition period on 1 January, and EU laws allow other member states to approve medicines for emergency use without EMA authorisation.
Dr June Raine, chief executive of the MHRA, said “We’ve been able to authorise supply of this vaccine under provisions under European law which exist until 1 January.”

 

I suppose there's no way the UK approving the vaccine first could be seen as a good thing in any way.

 

Either that, or wait for the EU to sit and decide approval at the end of December, so yes a good thing.

 

its a good thing. why the need to spin it is anyone's guess.

 

met someone yesterday whose Grandfather had had a jab - brought it home to me that it' actually happening.

 

My mum has her first jab next week.

Just wondered what your mums approach to the vaccine was, my mum isn’t concerned for herself, her attitude is ‘if I have the jab it’s a step towards everyone getting back to normal’. She sees it as doing what’s best for everyone.

A generational thing maybe, younger generations question the vaccine, mums generation do what they think is best for the country.
(My mum is 80 something, not sure exactly as every year for a long time she’s told me she’s 36 next birthday. I guess she liked being 36).

 

I think the older gen have an ingrained Welfare State mentality.

 

I think more likely the older generation have seen what happens when we don't have vaccines.

 

I'd agree to a point, although my old mum hasn't seen smallpox, or many of the other eradicated diseases. The older generation in my own family also have a 'what have I got to lose at my age attitude'.

 

My mother is 84 and remembers Polio striking when she was at school in the forties, I remember mumps, measles and rubella ("German Measles") having regular outbreaks in the sixties. All of which had been virtually eliminated by vaccination until the tin foil hatted conspiracy theorists started bleating their bollox
