"
How would you know which az injection you had?
The batch numbers are written on your card and are on your digital NHS record. "
Also the vaccine name. Vaxzeveria is the UK/EU made one and Covishield is the Indian one. |

Southern Europe is very dependent on British tourist money, their eurozone economies are already crap with massive youth unemployment for years so how long do you think this will drag on? It will not, those countries will keep shouting at the EU central command |

"British tourist money is important, wonder how long this will last?
Probably not long. They are looking into it now.
How would you know which az injection you had? "
If it made your ring burn the next morning it's the indian one.. Or is it delta? |

"Five million British people have been vaccinated with an Indian AstraZeneca which EEC and USA has not licensed and won't recognise for travel passports.
Oh lord  "
Isn't this just the EU flexing it's revenge muscles as az didn't deliver what they wanted when they wanted it? |

According to the news story I just read, the manufacturers haven't sought EMA approval at some stage. It's bureaucracy. |

Well in fairness.... If its not political maneuvering... (a big if)... Approvals are there to protect us from dodgy drugs... So... Assume its forms filling and just a matter of time, I'm sure it can be rushed through. |

It requires the Indian institute to apply - this isn't the EU playing games |

I've had one of these, it was my first one that I had in March. My second one was a different batch.
I would think the necessary approvals will now be progressed but I also expect the EU to drag its feet a little, as they don't do anything quickly. I'm not planning any holidays until the end of the year at the earliest so don't think it's going to affect me really.
However, if this does drag on it would be good to know if, when people have received a booster, would they accept the 2nd and 3rd jabs as long as they weren't this type? |

"Is it safe for them to be injected with another vaccine so that they can travel or is there not enough research on the effects of a combination of vaccines working together?"
Mixing vaccines has been approved now.  |

Five million British people have been vaccinated with an Indian AstraZeneca, and are protected in the same way, as provided by the other 72,909,177 doses that have been administered.
That’s the only information that’s important. |

EU wouldn't do anything as pedantic as that surely..? |

Probably, as football seems to carry such importance in some people's lives. |

Ten European countries have unilaterally confirmed they will accept the Indian-made version of the AstraZeneca jab at their borders (including Spain, Greece, Germany, France )
It’s also worth stressing the point again that this Indian made AstraZeneca provides exactly the same protection for the recipient as the British and EU made versions, and is approved by the MHRA.
No one has been “swindled”

"I cannot believe this, it’s like people having those batches have been swindled "
Because they've received a vaccine that meets the exact same standards as the other AZ ones?
Technical glitch or crap admin by whomever but it'll be resolved..

"Thats why I'm not going to vaccinate... they started from 2 doses now u need 3rd one. Soon you'll have to vaccinate every month..."
That's incorrect. This has been a rapid period of learning, research and gathering evidence. Many different vaccines in production and test. One needs just 1 dose.
The very clear message from the start was that it was unknown how long immunity lasted after infection and also from the vaccines, which had been trialled on around 1 million people in total amongst them but not for much more than 6 months.
Now that we have had a longer period of time to assess infections and immunity, as well as learn how the virus levels in society are, scientists have increased their evidence.
A booster is likely to be very effective at restoring reduced immunity. It's better to sustain high levels of immunity than have people get infected, surely! |

You make a good point. But not everybody is glued to covid updates. They take what the BBC or mail say or imply as gospel and just do as they are told as they want to just get on with things. There's a lot of people still not washing hands so don't take anything for granted. Not least as the messages have changed and changed and changed again...and not always for genuine reasons. |

That comment just makes you look like a bit of a dick to be honest. Do a little research and educate yourself. |

Yeah right
What about French, German, Scandinavian, Austrian, Polish, Dutch tourists?
Definitely not very dependent |

"Five million British people have been vaccinated with an Indian AstraZeneca which EEC and USA has not licensed and won't recognise for travel passports. "
I had the Indian vaccine covishield for my first one .
I've also got Poland holiday booked for December. The way I look at it is that they are discriminating against the 5 million by not letting us travel.
In the newspaper article it states Boris says it will all be fine and sorted soon.
But further down it says the government spokesman says that noone in UK has been vaccinated with those 3 batch numbers when they clearly have!! |

"Idiocity at it bestExactly its the very same vaccine just made in India it seems the eu have still got it in for AZ. "
Apparently over a dozen EU countries have said that they will happily accept people who have had the Indian made version. |

My first jab was batch 4120Z002, and last time I checked I was in the UK! |

Actually the US issue is a different one… AZ does not have FDA approval
The only covid vaccines that do are Pfizer, Moderna, and Johnson and Johnson |

Maybe the government should advise anyone in the 3 batch numbers concerned to not pay for testing etc before they the government check with tour operators, travel industry even the Eu what the fek is going on..?

I’m sure the uk are asking the Maltese the very same question, considering the Indian made AstraZeneca is recognised by 15 EU countries for the EU ‘green pass’
In the meantime the really important part is the Indian made vaccine is exactly the same as the vaccine made elsewhere and crucially, provides exactly the same protection. |

I bet that wasn't the important part for the couple wanting to visit their son who lives in Malta, who they hadn't seen for a year. |
