Covid Vaccination ID

[backsidebaggie]

Anyone who works in care and health should have one. Otherwise they put others at risk particularly vulnerable children who don’t have the luxury currently of a vaccine. Where are there rights if some idiot libertarian, Covid sceptic, nonsense believing plonker and I’m being VERY polite decides not to have one.

Vaccines don’t prevent transmission so even having the vaccine still leaves people at risk.

Dekka you sound like a maniac. I know a number of people who are wary of the vaccine and aren’t covid deniers. My god look at you lumping people in with a few covid denying loons. You literally sound bonkers. The number of ‘covid deniers’ is tiny. There’s plenty who don’t want the vaccine. To call them all covid deniers is insane. If that’s you being polite, I dread to think what you’d be like being impolite!

And what would you do with the significant number of health staff who don’t want it? Hold them down and force them? Sack them? Jesus Christ.

There’s significant numbers who don’t want it dekka. Many are weighing up the risks of covid with the risks of the vaccine (fertility, long term effects, short term reactions published by the government). I hate to tell you but the younger the age group, the more will refuse it. It will be a reasonable percentage (see article I have linked for an idea of working age staff in the health sector). An absolute tiny tiny fraction of these are ‘covid deniers’.

That was a list of usual suspects who refuse to have the vaccination. I didn’t say they were all Covid deniers it was meant as a list. I hate to tell you but many share my opinion that if you work in the care industry and refuse to have the jab that’s fine just don’t work in the sector. Including well known journalist and ‘maniac’ Shelagh Fogarty on LBC. There is nothing imo controversial or mad about suggesting people who care for others should take the vaccine.

We don’t actually know if the vaccine can help reduce the chances of spreading the virus but there are studies that suggest it may do. If it is proven without doubt then those refusing will put others at needless risk. There will be some who may not be able to have it due to medical reasons but they will be in a very small minority. This is the NHS information on side effects NHS information   This is a BBC report (I know you would have missed it as it wasn’t on Sky Sports  ) Fertility Fertility Concerns

Vaccine and the reduction of the virus

You’re backtracking and you know it. You literally referred to the health sector and to children being put at risk because of covid denying libertarians. Read what you wrote again. A tiny tiny percentage of those who don’t want the vaccine are covid deniers (especially in the health sector!). So what do you suggest for those in the health sector who don’t want the vaccine? Force them? Sack them? 

The fact that many share this opinion is irrelevant. I would ask them the same question if they share your opinion. There are significant numbers in the health sector who don’t want it. You say don’t work in the health sector if that’s the case? I ask again, what would you suggest because sacking those amounts is quite absurd. Just look at the stats in Leicester for gods sake! So what do you suggest?

As for the second point, correct, we don’t know. So it’s likely that to a degree at least, it can still be transmitted anyway. The vaccine isn’t even 100% effective so highly unlikely it can it stop 100% transmission. But it’ll help yes. But that’s irrelevant to the main point here, which is that shit loads of people in younger age groups don’t want the vaccine.

When significant amounts of people of younger ages refuse the vaccine, if you refer to these as covid deniers, you will be wrong for virtually all of them. You will be incorrectly lumpingvthem in with an extreme if you choose to do that. There are very very few covid deniers. There are significant numbers who don’t want the vaccine. From the Leicester study, actual doctors were the lowest take up! Lower than nurses and other staff! I’d love you to tell them they shouldn’t be working in the health sector! Jesus Christ.

So back to the health sector, look at the proportion who don’t want it. What’s your suggestion?

As for your last point about people not trusting medical science, science changes. I’d say on balance the vaccine is probably safe. Almost certainly. But no one can say 100%. And it’s each individuals choice as to how they weigh up factors to make their decision. Based on the stats from Leicester, what do you therefore suggest for the health sector? It may not be controversial to think they should take it, but when the only two options to implement your view are therefore forcing them or sacking them, I’d say that’s fairly controversial. Your thoughts?
