Dr Hilary was saying this morning there was a massive percentage ( I think he said 72%) of BAME who said they wouldn’t take it. He also said the basics of how a vaccine works should be taught in schools to stop all the stupidity surrounding them.

Would it be enough to overcome some myths and cultural blockages to a better approach? Loads of doctors and medical folk in the nhs from BAME background, yet still some shit pervades.

peelyfeet Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 2 hours ago, Tonge moor green jacket said: The protection levels are defined by the results of the testing regime undertaken by the manufacturer: in this case Pfizer. The information is reviewed for accuracy and then has to go through mhra approval. The scientists looking at the data will do so very critically, so for them to accept the 89% there must have been very strong evidence. Why its now being seen as 33% is very strange- we need peelyfeet urgently. The virologits I follow don't seem overley concerned about the results, but they all say it would be better if we could get the 2nd dose in the timeframe recommended. The 33% needs to be taken with a massive pinch of salt - it's very preliminary, and is a measurement of test positivity 14 days after taking the fist shot. It doesn't tell us anything about onward transmission, or changes in the seriousness of infection Antibodies take about 10 days to get to a decent level, so anyone catching the virus in the first few days after having the vaccine would have very little additional defence against it anyway - there's quite a few experts suggesting that when we see the full data it will likely show that of those who did catch it after the vaccine, most of them were in the few days after the shot, and the overall severity was lower. Most vaccines can't protect anyone from "catching" a disease, they just enable your immune system to deal with it really quickly, so that in essence it appears that you've not actually had the disease, and in some cases you won't find it in a test either, but that doesnt mean to say the virus hasnt been in some of your cells and dealt with by your imuune system. But they all think the 2nd booster builds up the immune system much better - they can literally see a massive spike in antibodies a few days after having the 2nd shot.

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted January 20, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted January 20, 2021 Cheers Peely: I suspected that may be the case- infection just before/after jab. Be interesting to see if a number have fucked off the protective measures immediately too, rather than wait until they're fully ready.

I suspect, when it all plays out that we will see a much bigger drop in the % of the vaccinated needing hospitalisation, which is what we care about ultimatley, and I bet they'll be much less likley to pass it on if they do catch it after vaccination than those who catch it without vaccination. We'll soon see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter fatolive Posted January 20, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted January 20, 2021 Dad has his today , at Breightmet health centre , said it was very well organised, no issues with anything and was told he’d get a letter in 10 weeks for his next appointment for his 2nd dose at 12 weeks. Seems they have it well arranged up at Dunstan ( possibly everywhere) Was weird, wasn’t with him or anything, knew he was going at 12:20 but was quite emotional when I got the text off him 12:40 to say he’d been done and back home, Today was the first step towards out of it for me.
