By employment, I have to analyse Internet crimes and related matters.
There is a remarkable (relatively speaking) number of vaccines being sold which are naturally fake. Mostly scam artists but some people have received lord only knows what.
Also the Chinese vaccines, 2 approved, 3 awaiting clearance are from early indications not as successful as hoped.

Mrs DG and I had our first (Oxford) jabs on Monday

an capall (27th January 2021), Desert Orchid (27th January 2021), G-G (28th January 2021), moe (27th January 2021), Tout Seul (27th January 2021)
Pleased to hear that DG. My DIL (health worker) is having one today. Every vaccine is one step closer to normality and one less person to worry about.
Both of us had slight reactions. Mrs DG felt extremely tired next day but soon up to speed again whilst I had a strange headache all night which kept me awake but which disappeared once I took a couple of Nurofen and then during the afternoon I felt really cold and by four pm was really shivering to the extent I was shaking and could barely hold a knife and fork so after adding layers of clothing failed to work had to lie in bed for a couple of hours fully dressed with the electric blanket turned up before feeling warm again.Symptoms didn't return and felt OK again in the evening. Since then learnt that one of Mrs DG's friends experienced exactly the same.Originally Posted by moe

Meanwhile the European Commission make Hancock and Johnson look thoughtful and competent and that takes some doing. Five years negotiating a NI prortocol and they undermine it in a month because Macron is sulking. Gobshites.
"And still they gazed and still the wonder grew. That one small head could carry all he knew.
And that small head knew that Impaire Et Passe would win the Champion Hurdle."
My partners parents had the headache thing too DG., they were also done on Monday.
Are we surprised!
All comers, all grounds, all beaten!
This perfect mix of poetry and destruction.
Macron definitely not coming out of this well.
Illegitimi non carborundum
I knew the Pfizer vaccine sometimes caused headaches but interesting to know the Oxford one did, too. At least it shows the body is reacting to the vaccine. I was extremely tired after my flu jab this year: I mentioned it to the pharmacist when I had a pneumonia jab and she said she hadn’t thought about it at the time but that she, too, had been tired afterwards. First time I’d had a reaction of any kind to a vaccine.
I'll put up with a minor reaction for the sake of getting the jab.
Illegitimi non carborundum
We had ours (Pfizer) 10 days ago - no discernible reaction.
I’m in for Jab 1 next Wednesday.

Yep I was just reading Scotland were hopeful of commencing over 60's before March
How did you pass as 60?

Presumably you were at the back of the queue for your ‘category’ Grassy. Surely you should’ve been getting your second jab now?
Surely there can't be that many people in Scotland that make it to 60?

I had mine ten days ago and felt pretty rough (I’m 54). Mine was the Astra Zeneca. In case you’re wondering why I jumped the queue, a friend is our local triage nurse and was vaccinating the local adult care home. She had literally one spare dose and like many in her profession doesn’t want to waste any. As I live round the corner, she rang me to see if I wanted it. As my mother who I live with is deemed extremely vulnerable (she’s had her first jab too), friend thought it sensible to get me done early.
FWIW, I felt rubbish! Really achy and flu like symptoms. I took paracetamol but I was in bed for a couple of days so it did knock me out. And I am pretty fit and healthy. But it’s a small price to pay IMO.
tu ne cede malis, sed contra audentior ito
You can't be 54! Spoofer.
Pure plot. Charles Byrnes would be proud of that one!
"And still they gazed and still the wonder grew. That one small head could carry all he knew.

FWIW, I had the first AZ jab a couple of weeks ago with no side effects whatsoever. It would be interesting if, at some stage, they were able to do some research into the side effects and see if anything connects people who suffer most. I know there are preliminary indications that people who have had covid already seem to react worse to the jab but our small sample on here shows that there must be more than that to it.
The older I get the better I was.
My mum has had the Astra Zeneca jab.
She had a tiny headache the day afterwards, and a sore arm to touch or sleep on for 2 days. Apart from that nothing. My mums sister reported exactly the same.
It's clearly affecting different people in different ways, but still better than the alternative of no prevention at all.
Ps, thats a nice thing that nurse did for you, Jinny. It makes sense with your mum being vulnerable.
