"Of course, why would anyone say no to this?" Because of Bill Gates, nanotrackers, 5G and Soros. But the main reason that someone would say no to it would because of some rubbish they read on facebook. | |||

"Yes definitely me and all my family and it is looking more promising for the oxford uni vaccine as astrazenica are preparing to produce millions of doses of its vaccine.after signing a world wide licencing agreement. I an not a biochemist but if a drug company goes to that length to produce millions of doses and spends £££? I don't think they would if they were not confident it was going to work. If anyone can shed more light please add comments " They have 14 million of Gov Funding to produce at risk. | |||

"Of course, why would anyone say no to this? Because of Bill Gates, nanotrackers, 5G and Soros. But the main reason that someone would say no to it would because of some rubbish they read on facebook." Yeah that 5G is a b*gger. I had the anthrax jab When I was in the military and we actually had to sign a form to say we were happy to get it, and I am fine (apart from my glow in the dark balls). | |||

"Once I get all the infomation regarding a vaccine. " I think there's a useful distinction which I didn't make clear above, and should have done. I'd listen to the experts on the matter. I'm not a doctor, epidemiologist, immunologist, or virologist. But I have a reasonable idea of how to source reliable information. I'm not going to make a decision based on "this vaccine functions by modulating the spike protein and by using an IL6 inhibitor" etc because my eyes will glaze over.

"I am quite firmly pro-vaccine. I am vaccinated beyond the schedule and believe in vaccinating myself to protect myself and others. However, the vaccine development we're seeing at the moment is going at an unprecedented pace, and corners are potentially going to be cut to bring something to market faster. Partly because of the overwhelming need, and partly because of political pressure. If the safety standards are up to the same level as a regular vaccine would be expected to have, I would take the vaccine in a heartbeat. Vaccines are, on a population level, overwhelmingly safe and effective. If they are not, then I would want to know more about the ways in which they are not, and both the potential risk to me and my community." The record for creating and using a vaccine up to now was 4 years and that was mumps. Science has moved on a lot since then, ITs since possible to create and model DNA sequences in the laboratory stage. What hasn't changed is need for human trials. Ebola was first identified in 1975, the first vaccine was approved for conditional use in december 2019. | |||

I trust the process, but the process is compromised (if for good reason) at the moment. | |||

I would hope devil’s advocacy and transparency of research findings in the public’s interests will prevent political pressure from cutting critical corners.

"A lot of people will jump for a vaccine to get back to normal. But you have to sign your rights away, government have agreed that them or the manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any side effects or deaths caused. So it's your choice. " If significant numbers of people died following any vaccination programme then I doubt Pfizer (or whoever) would escape unscathed..... | |||
"A lot of people will jump for a vaccine to get back to normal. But you have to sign your rights away, government have agreed that them or the manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any side effects or deaths caused. So it's your choice. " These kind of agreements are standard in vaccine manufacture due to the low profit margin involved in making vaccines and that they're essential for public health. Compensation bodies exist, and serious risk from vaccines is extremely rare. Let's not scaremonger with anti vaccine propaganda. | |||

"A lot of people will jump for a vaccine to get back to normal.

"No they can't even get the flu vaccination right and look how long they have been doing that " The drift with the flu means that it's a very difficult thing to get right. The drift with SARS-Covid-2 has been pretty minimal, and infectivity is reliant upon the spike protein, which is (I believe) where a lot of the vaccine work is focused. They're different viruses with different problems to overcome. | |||
| |||
"No they can't even get the flu vaccination right and look how long they have been doing that " The Flu vaccine has worked really well for me. For years before the pandemic I flew around the world and travelled to lots of places where I might be exposed to the Flu virus and met lots of people, stayed in lots of hotels. I have never had anything but a mild cold in all the years I’ve been advised to have a flu jab. It works pretty well. However COVID is a different type of virus and the vaccine development is based around the cold virus rather than influenza. | |||

They would be protected by herd immunity. | |||

I don't believe an damn word they say. By any objective measure we are in the 3 worst handled countries in the world. Hence why I wouldn't believe them if they said a vaccine was safe and since I have no way to fact check the trials myself, then I'll pass. I think they'd do anything to get out of this mess they've made. | |||

"I will wait and assess the evidence when & if a vaccine is eventually available. I am not in a high risk group, so the risk/benefit analysis isn't easy. Covid is not an especially deadly virus and even with the most rigourous testing any new vaccine or drug carries it's own risks. Everyone has to balance the risk for themselves as everyones situation is unique." I unfortunately caught it, and have been knocked flat for six weeks and counting. Dead isn't the only bad outcome. | |||
| |||
" I unfortunately caught it, and have been knocked flat for six weeks and counting. Dead isn't the only bad outcome." Sorry to hear that & I wish you a speedy recovery. I'm aware of the possible outcomes of contracting Covid and wouldn't seek to dismiss it as a disease without consequence for some. So far though the evidence suggests that serious long term illness is relatively uncommon with the majority making a full recovery in a couple of weeks. That's why I'm undecided - the risk from both the vaccine and the disease are both not completely known. | |||

But I fear the spin on it has become, it's not scary unless you're particularly physically vulnerable. It's just not true. I too will weigh things up for reasons I've stated above, but I think mass vaccination (with medical exemption only) is our only escape from this. | |||

What is it specifically about Sunetra Gupta that makes you think she is involved in bailing out the Governement’s clusterfuck? I’m wondering if you know something about her involvement in the vaccine development that I don’t." She's extremely critical of the governments approach and Imperial college modelling that it's based on. She disagrees with pretty much all the governments main assertions about how the virus behaves. She advocates a more rapid exit from lockdown, in complete contrast to Chris Whitty saying he can't see an exit without a vaccine. I just don't know why you'd cite oxford university like they are in approval of the governments approach. | |||

To be honest I would give it some thought, I don’t use Facebook and I don’t read conspiracy theories etc. But a vaccine fast tracked through in record time would give me reason to pause and consider if I wanted it The elephant in the parliament square is that there's simply not enough covid19 around, to draw meaningful data on its effectiveness without directly exposing the test cases to covid19; which they haven't done yet. I'll be happy to have the vaccine... in 2035. Which is one reason why they're testing in Brazil, where it's running rampant.

I doubt Oxford University scientists see it as bailing the Govt out of a clusterfuck Lol, are you being ironic? You know who Sunetra Gupta is right? Yep. What is it specifically about Sunetra Gupta that makes you think she is involved in bailing out the Governement’s clusterfuck? I’m wondering if you know something about her involvement in the vaccine development that I don’t. She's extremely critical of the governments approach and Imperial college modelling that it's based on. She disagrees with pretty much all the governments main assertions about how the virus behaves. She advocates a more rapid exit from lockdown, in complete contrast to Chris Whitty saying he can't see an exit without a vaccine. I just don't know why you'd cite oxford university like they are in approval of the governments approach. " They aren’t. But they are heading the vaccine development. | |||

They are heading the UK one which should fail because there wasn't enough coronavirus circulating in May and June to make the results meaningful. Sunetra Gupta does not believe we need a vaccine to exit lockdown. Chris Whitty does. Hope that's clear enough. | |||

"Of course, why would anyone say no to this?" Because it takes years to produce a safe vaccine, they won't know all the side effects for a long time and some could include heart,liver,kidney problems or even some forms of cancer. | |||
"The government and their associated departments are working their arses off to minimise the effects of this virus. I am very relieved I live in the UK and not some other country where there is little or no effort to deal with the situation. Boris Johnson and his cohorts are successfully dealing with it, and we'll see how other countries have faired when all the statstics are in say a year from now. Thank god it's not Jeremy Covid and his grey cohorts that are trying to deal with it! I will be at the head of the queue to be vaccinated. Those that don't? Well good luck." This is so all true and well said | |||

The UK is one of the worst hit countries despite having an excellent healthcare system and high level of preparedness. The government has overseen a clusterfuck of epic proportions. I will likely be vaccinated, I see it as my civic duty. But so is calling these self congratulatory buffoons to account for the blood on their hands. | |||
" It's not right, I know people who are part of the current trials (they volunteered). " yes... that's what the word 'consent' means. i.e you volunteer to do it. They have already tested the virus on people to see how it works on demographics, which help develop a vaccine. They are considering doing challenge trials with several thousand people who have volunteered to do so if they choose to go through with them. | |||

"Of course, why would anyone say no to this? Because it takes years to produce a safe vaccine, they won't know all the side effects for a long time and some could include heart,liver,kidney problems or even some forms of cancer." Exactly, you'd have to be very foolish to take a fast tracked vaccine designed in a few months with no long term testing. I won't be taking the vaccine but will watch with interest at the side effects/deaths that'll occur. | |||

"Of course, why would anyone say no to this? Because of Bill Gates, nanotrackers, 5G and Soros. But the main reason that someone would say no to it would because of some rubbish they read on facebook." 5G?..... mate catch yourself on LOL | |||
"A lot of people will jump for a vaccine to get back to normal. But you have to sign your rights away, government have agreed that them or the manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any side effects or deaths caused. So it's your choice. That is not true vaccine producers can be sued certainly in the European Union they can. Not the case in the US apparently." Because it's being pushed through they are exempt its the deal, or no vaccine the worlds gone mad. But only way to get a vaccine to market in time, or 5 years wait. | |||
" So when you said they'd already done challenge trials earlier, you were talking shit then? " I didn't claim that. Please learn to read. I never claimed they'd done challenge trials (they didn't have a vaccine back then). I said they deliberately infected volunteers to help develop a vaccine. Let's just cut with the sarcasm. You've gotten your facts wrong with every single post so far, and resorted to personal insults and red herrings to change the topic. I don't quite know who you think you're convincing anymore, but they're probably needing help with being fed. | |||
" What's your source on this, please?" The preliminary demographic trials were done by Queen Mary BioEnterprises Innovation Centre in London. It's quite common practice for these things, and the BBC did a short video on it back in March. 1daysooner.org currently lists the volunteers for challenge trials at around 28,000 which you can check on their site. | |||

You said: "You DO understand that the vaccine being developed has literally nothing to do with whether a large amount of the population is infected right?" Here's a quote from the BBC in april: "The only way the team will know if the Covid-19 vaccine works is by comparing the number of people who get infected with coronavirus in the months ahead from the two arms of the trial. That could be a problem if cases fall rapidly in the UK, because there may not be enough data." So actually it matters a lot how rampant the virus is in society. | |||

"We have been officially lowered from a 4 to a stage 3, which means that from what I gather there is the chance of social distancing being lessened, and if we go to stage 2, minimal or or no social distancing needed. I don't really need to see why people need a vaccine at the rate that it seems the virus is burning itself out. Obviously only what I'm thinking personally and I'm sure I can be influenced by more or new information if and when I find some." You're right. The upside of the governments disastrous handling is that most the damage has been done. We aren't like South Korea, Vietnam, Singapore or Taiwan who have done excellent jobs but still have their most vulnerable people around. Roughly 10% of cases of covid19 cause 80% of the next cases, something the media tries very hard not to mention. Meaning that if we hold off on mass gatherings for a bit longer, put a face mask on in public and wash our hands then you can forget all this bullshit about a second wave. There's no reason not to develop a vaccine, but it shouldn't get a pass through the safety checks just because the government fucked up. | |||

"Why any sane, responsible person would insist on refusing a vaccine without learning its research evidence is fully beyond me. " But there's just no way for an ordinary person to do that.

" ... So they've discussed but not done a challenge trial? " That's correct. You can't just go out and 'do' trials like that. You need various medical boards to sign off on the ethics. eg: If there were a disease that had virtually no infection rate but a 99.99% lethality. It wouldn't get signed off on due to the risk to the subjects. If it were something with a relatively low lethality. Say 7.25% of all people over the age of 60. But with a very high transmissibility, then most likely it will be. You could most likely test it on young healthy people with the ability to treat the odd person who just so happened to get really sick. There are various other factors like being able to screen out other people at risk. | |||

Anyone who believes that the WHO, and the UK government are deliberately lying to mislead the population, and that they are malicious and stupid, needs to waddle off into a corner and have a serious word with themselves. And anyone who thinks there was no evidence of human to human transmission on January 14th has lost touch with reality. Come on then fountain of knowledge, what else have the authorities been lying through their teeth about?" I'll wait for you to acknowledge the first lie before proceeding. | |||
"If offered to you, will you accept the Covid19 vaccine, or not? Who honestly would say no" I would. | |||
" In the last 6 months we've seen the WHO lie multiple times. The CDC lie The British government lie The scientists advising the British government lie. So, what exactly have they lied about? If you don't know by now then it's hard to help you. I guess it's more that there's no evidence of them telling the truth. I'm not the one accusing them of lying, you are. You can't give any examples can you? Just hype and drivel. If you think there was no evidence of human to human transmission by January 14th then there's just no hope for you. Here we go with this bullshit and bluster again, lets see how it compares against the factual record. WHO was first notified by their China office of a new disease on Dec31 2019, On Jan 4 WHO released a pandemic preparedness toolkit which advised countries to check PPE stocks and testing equipment. WHO did not gain access to Wuhan until Jan 20 when they first warned of human to human transmission. Their recommendations to the international community included: "It is expected that further international exportation of cases may appear in any country. Thus, all countries should be prepared for containment, including active surveillance, early detection, isolation and case management, contact tracing and prevention of onward spread of 2019-nCoV infection, and to share full data with WHO." On Feb 23 WHO released a report warning that the virus is “spreading with astonishing speed” and called for governments to “immediately activate the highest level of national response,” including immediate and extensive testing and planning for closing schools and workplaces. Let me know if you want citations. No I'm just confused which part of that you find impressive. Or how you can use phrases like "did not gain access to wuhan" like it's area 51 or something. I'll save my praise for countries like taiwan who knew damn well it transmits human to human in December and implemented measures on their borders accordingly. Anyway, fill your boots with the vaccine, I may have it eventually so thanks for being the guinea pig. " Feigned derision doesn't change facts. | |||

"I have severe asthma and am shielding, because of that I would be high on the list of people to be offered a vaccine. I would be asking questions about how similar it is to the flu vaccine first before I accepted. The only time I ever had the flu jab I had an anaphylactic reaction to it so I would need to be reassured that it wouldn’t happen with a covid vaccine too. " In order to have an anaphylactic reaction to something you normally need to have been exposed to it at least once before the exposure that causes reaction. Ideally I'd want a test to see if I already had antibodies to Covid. If so then I wouldn't want the vaccine, if not so then definitely YES. | |||

WHO did not gain access to Wuhan until Jan 20 when they first warned of human to human transmission. Their recommendations to the international community included: "It is expected that further international exportation of cases may appear in any country. Thus, all countries should be prepared for containment, including active surveillance, early detection, isolation and case management, contact tracing and prevention of onward spread of 2019-nCoV infection, and to share full data with WHO." On Feb 23 WHO released a report warning that the virus is “spreading with astonishing speed” and called for governments to “immediately activate the highest level of national response,” including immediate and extensive testing and planning for closing schools and workplaces. Let me know if you want citations. No I'm just confused which part of that you find impressive. Or how you can use phrases like "did not gain access to wuhan" like it's area 51 or something. I'll save my praise for countries like taiwan who knew damn well it transmits human to human in December and implemented measures on their borders accordingly. Anyway, fill your boots with the vaccine, I may have it eventually so thanks for being the guinea pig. Feigned derision doesn't change facts. I'm sorry, could you just make it clear whether there was evidence of human to human transmission on January 14th or not? You keep waffling so just a yes or no would be lovely. On the 12 Jan WHO released a statement https://www.who.int/csr/don/12-january-2020-novel-coronavirus-china/en/ in which they say: "The government reports that there is no clear evidence that the virus passes easily from person to person." On Jan 20 WHO first visited Wuhan and their report includes the following: "Human-to-human transmission is occurring and a preliminary R0 estimate of 1.4-2.5 was presented." The report goes on to state: "It is expected that further international exportation of cases may appear in any country. Thus, all countries should be prepared for containment, including active surveillance, early detection, isolation and case management, contact tracing and prevention of onward spread of 2019-nCoV infection, and to share full data with WHO" Context matters as does the fact that knowledge on Covid-19 was and is evolving. If you wish to argue what WHO said or didn't say on a particular date is their definitive and final statement then you certainly may, but such a response is misleading and disingenuous. Was that a yes or no buttercup? January 14th was my question. If you go and check the record you will see no statement from WHO was released on the Jan 14. https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019/events-as-they-happen How exactly do you think does name calling help your argument? Except the fact that they tweeted it on that day so there was an announcement. Funny how you asked me for an example of lying but when I give one, you can't confirm what is and isn't true. You mean the excerpt from this tweet? https://twitter.com/WHO/status/1217157045318836224 Additional investigation on the novel #coronavirus (2019-nC0V) is needed to ascertain: the presence of human-to-human transmission modes of transmission common source of exposure the presence of asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic cases that are undetected Can you provide a link, please and thanks It'll be the one that says "no clear evidence of human to human transmission", it's not hard to find. So I'll ask again, was there clear evidence of human to human transmission on January 14th or not? Because we know there was clear evidence on November 19th so you can keep trying to spin it however you want, but that was a lie." You can't find it? Neither can I. If you check their statement from Jan 12, they repeat what the Chinese govt told that there was no "clear evidence that the virus passes easily from person to person." Their statement on Jan 23 following their visit to Wuhan confirmed that "Human-to-human transmission is occurring". So to summarise, when they didn't know if human to human transmission was occurring, they said they didn't know. When they definitely knew that human to human transmission was occurring, they said so. | |||

" In the last 6 months we've seen the WHO lie multiple times. The CDC lie The British government lie The scientists advising the British government lie. So, what exactly have they lied about? If you don't know by now then it's hard to help you. I guess it's more that there's no evidence of them telling the truth. I'm not the one accusing them of lying, you are. You can't give any examples can you? Just hype and drivel. If you think there was no evidence of human to human transmission by January 14th then there's just no hope for you.

I don't use that hell hole of a platform to send you a link, if you seriously can't find it then it's not wonder you're drawing odd conclusions about their credibility.

"Goodness. A brand new disease is discovered and it takes organisations months to figure out things about it. How shocking and surprising. Research needs time and observation to figure things out. Appalling " People like Li Wenliang were screaming warnings to anyone that would listen in December. Funny how Taiwan managed to hear him, but the WHO didn't | |||
