No you will probably be offered it but it is up to each individual if they decide to take it or not.

I read somewhere that it won't be made mandatory, so that if it turns out that there are serious side effects, nobody can be sued, as you have had it through your own will.

There is compensation for people that become 60% disabled, from the after effects of the vaccination... Now that's scary

Our weekly covid tests are mandatory,no test no shifts is basically what we were told,also in writing

My employer will be highly persuasive due to protecting our residents,when it comes to the vaccine,we will be pressurised,however unless it becomes law they cannot force us.there has already been gossip of ways to persuade us

Personally I have no problem taking it,some staff have said they would rather not for many different reasons

Yes because we don't live in a dictatorship.

My comment wasn't about breaking rules, more that there will be places offering travel, services, concerts etc without the vaccine being necessary.

I believe in the end will be mandatory , because as you mentioned if is to protect residents then the employer can refuse keep staf who doesn't have the vaccine. But also believe this will happen also in many other areas as hospitality , people who have vaccine they will have priority in get jobs as this way will be a further step to open the economy and bring some kind of normality to our daily lifes.

The government needs to open the economy and needs some monetary income to be able to keep supporting the most fragil people , that's why i believe will be mandatory at some point the vaccine as there's no economy/country that can keep for much longer the situation lockdown , this will lead a massive economic and social disaster

Vaccines in general should in my opinion, be mandatory unless medically exempt. Failing to Vaccinate your child should be child cruelty.

All vaccines have the potential for side effects and vaccine companies are given immunity against prosecution.

In any case they can't force people to have it. I suspect those who don't may find, for example, foreign travel difficult

We are the same we get tested weekly and we are getting the vaccine this week and yes I am taking it. It has been recommended take it but no one has been forced to. And weighing up the pros and cons I'm happy to take it.

It also sounds like BS. People can read something somewhere and there's an awful lot of BS peddled that seeps through the sewars to pollute intelligent life.

This not for profit vaccine from Oxford, would reasonably be bohndaried within the standard NHS protection that has been discussed here many times, as the other 2 vaccines, alongside our regular vaccines with other medicines. Some people like to get people worried.

There's enough trauma around the country, jobs, health etc that we have a responsibility to support each other, instead of taking about baseless guff that frightens people.

It's not mandatory and won't be. Those who decline their turn leave others free to take it.

Sounds abit like having nvq's certificates I never find it hard to get a job they could have a pile of applications,people who haven't had a vaccine could go in the NO pile

Being mandatory doesn't help when there are many who can't take the vaccine,for health reasons etc there will be lots excluded from many things,let alone getting a job

I definitely agree it would protect the residents,if mandatory and relatives would feel there mum etc would be in a safe environment,we will have to wait and see in the future

It will not be made mandatory but you will probably find that job opportunities might be harder to come by and some activities we did before the virus such as going on holiday will require us to be vaccinated first.

They are if you grant them access. It would be similar to the request to waiver the 48 hour week. On being offered a job the employer can be asked to sign the waiver. The employee can refuse but the employer then can withdraw the job offer. Simple choice really how much do you want the job.

I don't think it will be made compulsory in this country because no vaccine is.

However I do think that some countries for example have already strongly suggested they will require proof of vaccine before allowing entry like Australia and New Zealand.

It's also possible that some companies may ask for proof of vaccine before giving any job offer but I don't think it will be compulsory in the sense the government will say everyone has to have one.

I can’t believe anyone using Fab can be frightened of a little prick!

Vaccinations were a routine of growing up. Sometimes I was given a lollipop!

The diseases are always far worse - you never want to risk catching a “tropical disease”.

And overseas travel required me to take hundreds of preventative vaccinations - and I was more than happy to take every one of them.

Same at my job. Mandatory testing weekly !. Although the vaccine isn't law and is personal choice we have been advised that sick pay will stop for isolation and stop if track and traced . and if we get any flu symptoms.and don't expect to keep jobs.

I think its a small price to pay to keep them safe and return to normal . the chances of becoming illegal from it are just the same as shoving cocaine up people's noses and that don't stop the sniffers!! I had the opportunity for vaccine and took it . everyone who is scared of the vacine should care for someone dying from covid! Comparison is nothing

I wouldn’t worry about it at the moment. The latest article by the National Audit Office suggests that 50% of the UK population won’t even get the chance of getting a vaccine until 2022. That will be pretty well everyone below 50. In the meantime I would be much more worried about getting COVID.

Nobody is suggesting access to personal medical records. Just vaccination status. This is why I think we need a vaccination card, linked to a vaccination data base. So if you choose to show it, say at a interview, the prospective employer can only see if you have the required vaccine status.

Had my first test today... and going into the tent felt like a virus disaster movie. The police helicopter happened to be flying overhead and we were herded into little stations and given sealed bags. They could have at least made it a little festive, perhaps wham playing, a festive mince pie and some mulled wine, perhaps festive face masks and Santa scanning you out as you leave with a little wave and a cough. As for vaccine, my view is I will wait and see what unfolds before listening to hearsay and conjecture. The decision is Too serious a thing to take lightly but guessing by the time it rolls out the Christmas covid swab may be a summer vaccination barbecue... now there’s an idea!

I’m aware of that but I can’t find anywhere that states categorically that they are going to give it to under 50s, a mixture of we need to wait and see how this progresses first.

For me it’s more the companies already stating you can’t do this if not vaccinated, so under 16s no longer allowed to fly, go on holiday, visit relatives to name a few

I’m just biding my time and seeing what happens, as long as my folks get it when due, that’s good enough for me

There's a category of "16+ with pre existing health conditions" in the list of the vaccine priority groups.

To my knowledge, no Western country has a licensed Covid vaccine for under 16s, so I imagine any requirement for vaccination to travel will be for adults and (I'd hope) our illustrious Govt will be liaising with Govts across the world to highlight how the UK is vaccinating it's population (and how they're not making it available privately, for example).

Interesting fact - two of my Chinese students who intend to come to the UK in Jan already received a vaccine (a homegrown one from China). They're both under 20 and both stated it's purely because they want to travel abroad that they received it.

I think the volumes of doses that have been ordered suggests that a fuller public offer will be made. Obviously not all vaccines are approved yet but my guess is that the first 3 publishing results will get it. We need to wait on the others, assuming that they will also have efficacy amongst them. The vaccines are the key tool that the government has to work on the reductions of infection numbers, with the added focus on earlier recipients being those with higher proportions of then who get severe reactions or death from infection.

Just letting the virus steam ahead through the more socially active and at risk of infection in workplaces, Universities etc, doesn't seem such a smart solution to getting us to greener pastures too quickly

Lower risk = lower premiums.

Higher risk = higher premiums.

Common sense and common practice among insurance companies is it not?

"Pretty sure no one as in a employer, travel agent or the like is allowed access to your private medical record, so would have to take your word for it.

They are if you grant them access. It would be similar to the request to waiver the 48 hour week. On being offered a job the employer can be asked to sign the waiver. The employee can refuse but the employer then can withdraw the job offer. Simple choice really how much do you want the job.

Yes true they can do that with the hours but will never b able to access yr medical records ! X

Nobody is suggesting access to personal medical records. Just vaccination status. This is why I think we need a vaccination card, linked to a vaccination data base. So if you choose to show it, say at a interview, the prospective employer can only see if you have the required vaccine status.

Ridiculous idea! X"

Totally agree.

Those who want the vaccine, have it, those who don't, don't.

I can see massive long lengthy court cases regarding human rights about having to produce a card. This is just another scaremongering story by the people who are duped by the vaccines are game changers,

The vaccine does NOT prevent someone getting the virus.

The vaccine does NOT stop someone passing the virus on

It MAY stop the more serious issues of the virus.

Don't take this as a part for not taking the vaccine or taking it.

Next, they'll be saying we have to carry ID cards..

Unless specific laws are passed about vaccine being mandatory then it's a choice and nobody has access. You can actually limit what your doctor releases to a prospective or current employer

Also, think about this. It's stated that they'll vaccinate 300,000 people a week. OK so after 3 weeks, do all the vaccinations stop for the first 300.000 to have their 2nd injection or are they moving to 300,000 more each week? They aren't testing 300,000 a week and the injection isn't any easier.

Even if made mandatory, we have a legal system, judicial reviews etc.

Yep, ridiculous idea

I'm totally pro choice. Just as we are now, nobody has to show a card or even have one. No "human rights laws" stop anybody asking you anything. But all choices in life come with consequences. Just like I D cards now. You can have one, but you don't have to show it to anyone.

Bit of a strange statement. It is perfectly safe but carries no more side effects than any other vaccine. So vaccines do carry side effects? So not PERFECTLY safe then.

Well I daresay that they aren't actually named but here. Extremely rare does mean there are some even if it's only one.

Jump to Side effects — Side effects from the MMR vaccine can range from minor to serious: Minor: fever and mild rash. Moderate: pain and stiffness of the joints, seizure, and low platelet count. Serious: allergic reaction, which can cause hives, swelling, and trouble breathing (extremely rare)

Low platelet count

Overview

Thrombocytopenia is a condition in which you have a low blood platelet count. Platelets (thrombocytes) are colorless blood cells that help blood clot. Platelets stop bleeding by clumping and forming plugs in blood vessel injuries.

Thrombocytopenia might occur as a result of a bone marrow disorder such as leukemia or an immune system problem. Or it can be a side effect of taking certain medications. It affects both children and adults.

There’s nothing to prove the MMR vaccine caused problems. The theories have been debunked numerously. It was purely scaremongering !! I have an autistic daughter and in no way was it the vaccine. Do some research and you will find that it’s something that happens while they are still in the womb. It’s just that it doesn’t start to manifest itself till around the time of the vaccine but as it was a man who started the stupid theory I’m not surprised, men haven’t a clue what goes on during pregnancy ...

So just blood thinning? . There's medicine to treat that side effect.Sore joints too, maybe a slight fever. I'd deffinatly say it's very safe to use then. Any other problems or just that?

"I read somewhere that it won't be made mandatory, so that if it turns out that there are serious side effects, nobody can be sued, as you have had it through your own will."

I think that was just a scare mongering article.

The real reason it's not being made mandatory is simply consistent with government approach to most things, allowing people to choose, to be adult. Even many pandemic restrictions have not been mandatory but strong recommendations that all should follow. It's not worked as hoped so stronger measures were put in place, even those have been ignored by many and so were in this situation we're facing right now.

Even the lifting of certain restrictions over Christmas is yet another demonstration of the way the government want to allow freedom of choice and responsibility. Sadly we'll pay for it in the new year and our hospitals will be over worked and the very people that need the rest will be working long back to back shifts because of the simple fuckwitts in our society.

well seeing as our government have given Pfizer an indemnity over this vaccine no one will be allowed to claim anything if something does go wrong. Nb

Pfizer have a, long history of claims being made, against them. Some were settled, some were overruled and some are, still ongoing in the USA

They also had to pay out a world record for fraud

Will I be having this vaccine... No thank you. i will wait for something else to come along

I posted about it while it was happening a few months back and put up two links at the time as a friend there sent me a few videos of what was happening in the streets and the mass demos outside government buildings around the country. They tried to make the pandemic laws brought about in March permanent. The people saw what was happening and said no.

Mainstream media completely ignored it for some strange reason.

All companies (like pfizer) are indemnified.

Pfizer are an American company. America, where litigation is an industry in it's own right.

I've lost track of the times people have posted about Pfizer being exempt from prosecution and someone's pointed out it's not unusual.

Vaccines in general should in my opinion, be mandatory unless medically exempt. Failing to Vaccinate your child should be child cruelty.

Yes because the MMR was a masterpiece wasn't it.

I thought the mmr vaccine was safe. Just a lot of lies spread about it. The vast majority have always taken it and its been successful

Tell that to the parents of the children who were severly affected by the MMR vaccine. The VAST MAJORITY? So, you're actually saying that there is a minority that were affected.

Can you possibly imagine the dilemma of a parent decision to inject their child and possibly making them severly disabled.

The vast amount of parents are happy to use the mmr vaccine, myself being one. I clearly meant the vast amount of children get vaccinated. When I was a child, I caught measles. It was the most poorly I've been in my life.

You did say that you THOUGHT the MMR vaccine was safe. There were some children affected by the MMR vaccine and of course, remember, not everyone agrees or able to take vaccinations.

Not sure which children were affected, as the study was proved to be false. What problems is it responsible for?

Low platelet count

Overview

Thrombocytopenia is a condition in which you have a low blood platelet count. Platelets (thrombocytes) are colorless blood cells that help blood clot. Platelets stop bleeding by clumping and forming plugs in blood vessel injuries.

Thrombocytopenia might occur as a result of a bone marrow disorder such as leukemia or an immune system problem. Or it can be a side effect of taking certain medications. It affects both children and adults.

There you go

So just blood thinning? . There's medicine to treat that side effect.Sore joints too, maybe a slight fever. I'd deffinatly say it's very safe to use then. Any other problems or just that? "

And the extent of the Covid 19 side effects are?

There is absolutely no way the Government will force a vaccine on us.

Now, it's going to be some time till I get offered the vaccination but if this situation arises, I will definitely stand back and not have it forced on me.

I will become an anti vaxxer.

"Our weekly covid tests are mandatory,no test no shifts is basically what we were told,also in writing

My employer will be highly persuasive due to protecting our residents,when it comes to the vaccine,we will be pressurised,however unless it becomes law they cannot force us.there has already been gossip of ways to persuade us

Personally I have no problem taking it,some staff have said they would rather not for many different reasons

"

The test I can understand, better safe than sorry with someone unknowingly spreading the virus.

But they can't force you to take the vaccine. They're not sure if vaccinated people can be carriers, they do know it's highly effective in preventing people getting ill from it. So it's basically just on yourself if you were to get very ill from covid, after turning down a vaccine x

Only one of those isn't going to be much use, as you can transmit/ have virus even if you are vaccinated. So it would need to be both if they are being that strict about it, surely?

they are saying from next year you are likely to have to prove your vaccinated as well as testing negative for flying. Quantas has already said for definite.

Think it'll be a few years before that'll be remotely possible. It'll take 4 years for this batch to be done with the logistics. 138,000 in 10 days and obviously there has to be a pause every 3 weeks while the first recipients get their second jab. So by the time they've done 300,000, that'll be end of January. By recent statistics, there's 15.5 million people over 60 plus vulnerable people so that the 20 million doses sorted and at the pace they're delivering the vaccine, it'll take 4 years. Not much hope for under 60's before 2025.

Not being negative with this and your hopes but you do the maths.

At the rate they're vaccinating people (13,800) a day and remember, these HAVE to be recalled in 21 days, it'll take 4 years to use the one vaccine. Pointless having 3/4 vaccines if there's no ability or capacity to deliver. Take into account there are 15.5 million people over 60 then a few millions who are vulnerable. That uses the doses of the first vaccine.

Unless they can vaccinate a million a week (remember two vaccinations so that can equate to half a million per week, it'll be many months/years to get the majority vaccinated.

"Do you guys think everyone will be obliged to take the vacine even if they never been sick ?"

Ironically the vaccine is only necessary for people who have yet to have it. Antibodies stay in the body for 3 months. Longer if one is regularly exposed to a small viral count. You don't get the MMR jab because you have had those illnesses.

So if the antibodies stay in you for 3 months, that means you're liable to get reinfected after 3 months so why can't they get the vaccine after 3 months?

That'll be down to the venues (and potentially the performers) I think.

After all it is their venue and they can refuse admission for any reason.

That is at the current vaccination rate.

They are massively upping the number of places that can give the vaccine.

It will still take some time, but nowhere near 3 to 4 years.

Also, to bring the virus under control, not everyone needs vaccination. That's the beauty of herd immunisation.

Which suggests strongly that you won't be able to work for their services if you haven't had it. We have already spent substantial periods of the year under lockdowns, civil liberties be damned.

Either the virus is deadly enough to have justified all that has been done in its name, in which case it will absolutely be used to justify a requirement for vaccination to engage in society, because noone wants to be an anti-vaxxer right? Or the virus isn't deadly enough to justify it, which is something they absolutely cannot concede.

"I know it's looking increasingly likely that to travel abroad you will have to have had the vaccine. I'm okay with that.

I was looking for my planned travels next year and currently I have to have a negative test result not more than 48 hours before I land x

That's not same as having to prove u had a vaccine? X they are saying from next year you are likely to have to prove your vaccinated as well as testing negative for flying. Quantas has already said for definite.

So for me while not mandatory... it will make life easier.. I though have no issue with having it. Not sure when I will get offered it though.

Not being negative with this and your hopes but you do the maths.

At the rate they're vaccinating people (13,800) a day and remember, these HAVE to be recalled in 21 days, it'll take 4 years to use the one vaccine. Pointless having 3/4 vaccines if there's no ability or capacity to deliver. Take into account there are 15.5 million people over 60 then a few millions who are vulnerable. That uses the doses of the first vaccine.

Unless they can vaccinate a million a week (remember two vaccinations so that can equate to half a million per week, it'll be many months/years to get the majority vaccinated.

That is at the current vaccination rate.

They are massively upping the number of places that can give the vaccine.

It will still take some time, but nowhere near 3 to 4 years.

Also, to bring the virus under control, not everyone needs vaccination. That's the beauty of herd immunisation. "

If you recall, they were upping the testing rate massively and that got nowhere near 1 million a week. In the example I gave, that was the first 40 million doses for 20 million people. That is only 1/4 of the population

Where does herd immunity comes in the equation of vaccination?

Ok, let's try it a different way. Let's keep with the figure of 20 million doses (each person needs 2 injections). You tell me how many people they'd have to vaccinate, per week, to get through the 20 million.

I really don't think people realise how big 1 million is.

"It will be "voluntary"

In the sense that you can stay under house arrest and be barred from any form of employment; or you can voluntarily take the vaccine.

There's no evidence that this is generally the case, of course.

And you have no evidence that it's not.

There are however substantial numbers of companies lining up to say that you won't be able to engage with their services if you haven't had it. Which suggests strongly that you won't be able to work for their services if you haven't had it. We have already spent substantial periods of the year under lockdowns, civil liberties be damned.

Or the virus isn't deadly enough to justify it, which is something they absolutely cannot concede. "

You cannot put a wild thought out there and when someone says that's there's no evidence for that, you come back and say there's no evidence that it isn't. You have absolutely nothing to back up your suggestion except saying there's loads of companies lining up.. OK, I'll accept that if you can list these companies

"I read somewhere that it won't be made mandatory, so that if it turns out that there are serious side effects, nobody can be sued, as you have had it through your own will."

This is twoddle, it's non-mandatory but not for this reason. You can sue people for any harm they cause- if you choose to go to a restaurant and they give you food poisoning it's not your fault because you chose to go there- you are entitled to take action.

"Do you guys think everyone will be obliged to take the vacine even if they never been sick ?"

It won't be mandatory but everyone should get it because You might not get sick but you could be asymptomatic which means you are a plague carrier.

It's not just about you but everyone else.

Would you take something which could give you a rash,gastrointestinal ulcerations,abdominal pain,upset stomach,heartburn,drowsiness,headache,cramping?

That's the potential side effects of aspirin..

Worried about microchips? If you have a facebook twitter mobile phone; too late- plus we are not that interesting

Worried about the jab containing covid? The covid jab doesn't contain any. And remember those holiday jabs all follow immunization of all containing a dormant strain.

Do not read unproven science

Do not believe piers Corbyn or david Locke.

Wear a mask, wash your hands, keep your distance until March.

If you dont - lockdown 3 in january

It'll be lockdown in January anyway.

You can still get the virus if you have the vaccine and it doesn't stop you passing it on but may lessen the severity of the virus.

So take the vaccine but you won't get it before January when you claim there will be a lockdown.

J "

To other countries that may have a higher infection rate and come back and spread it around because the vaccine does NOT prevent you from getting Covid and it DOESN'T prevent you from passing it on to others so in essence, you to a degree are protecting yourself from getting the worst of the symptoms.

Possibly it may be the pro vaxxers are the selfish ones after all.

Do not read anything into what I have put to say that I am pro or anti vaxxine. I will decide when it gets to my turn with the scientific evidence available.

"...

Where does herd immunity comes in the equation of vaccination?

"

I just mentioned it as it means we don't need 100% of people to be immunised against it for the virus to be brought under control.

If in the real world, the vaccines are as effective as the trials show, then the current expectation is that we only need about 70% of the population to be vaccinated.

Obviously this number isn't exact and will change based on natural immunity gained from from catching the virus and how long immunity lasts.

Your simple maths is great for trying to prove a point, but it isn't realistic as it's a very complex situation that simple maths can't answer.

Ok, so you explain better then. Obviously simple terms don't work for you.

If it's 70% that need the vaccination then why are so many whinging about the anti vaxxers.

But this article explains some of the details and might be of interesting reading (based in America btw).

https://www.statnews.com/2020/12/17/calculating-our-way-to-herd-immunity/

As for why people moan about anti-vaxxer, I don't know why others do it.

I have no problem with people having concerns about the vaccine, but I have an issue with the lies and false info about them that gets spread. The more people with immunity, the safer 'everyone' is (by creating a stronger herd immunity), so any false info can spread fear and can damage the uptake, causing us to be in lockdowns and isolation for longer and can cause more deaths.

See, some say that the science behind the vaccine is acceptable, others say it is twaddle. The anti vaxxers and others who don't like the threats and pressure behind having to take a vaccination will say that the claims made by the scientists and government is twaddle. The people who agree with the vaccine and think the vaccine will restore life as we knew it say the claims that the other group is twaddle.

Twaddle is a perception of what someone agrees with or not. I agree, twaddle is twaddle but it depends on which side of the fence you or others sit or indeed on the fence and could say that both side are talking twaddle.

Nope, That's still not correct.

Facts are not twaddle. Facts are facts. Because someone chooses not to believe facts does not make those facts twaddle.

People can claim xyz, but if those claims aren't factual, they're twaddle. Perception doesn't change facts.

Twaddle is as I said pure fantasy fiction, unsubstantiated nonsense.

In the instance of the comment I replied to, stating that those who don't take the vaccine will be put under house arrest and refused any form of employment is complete and utter twaddle.

No scientist or politician of any country in the entire world has made such a statement.

Ergo, it's pure fantasy fiction and unsubstantiated nonsense.

In other words, twaddle.

So save for some of the messages in these fora, exactly what threats and pressure have you been put under by the govt and or scientists to have the vaccine.?because as far as I can see the govt have always said it is voluntary..and will be rolled out in groups of most vulnerable first. I haven't seen any govt message exerting pressure regarding the vaccine.

Yup, no one from the scientific community or government ate exerting any pressure to take the jab.

It's advised and recommended, which is frankly, common bloody sense anyway.
