Yes we all die eventually but hopefully not of a preventable disease.
I disagree Annie, overuse of some medication (especially painkillers) means the dose has to be constantly upped to give the same level of efficiency. There are some people who have been bitten by snakes that many times that their bodies can withstand a dose that would be lethal to a normal person.

Re: Covid-19 Vaccinations

I’ve just learned on a local community forum that a good few people in my town that have had the AstraVeneca vaccine this week are or have been quite ill .

I read a report saying younger people had more side effects than older people. I had my first Astra Veneca vaccine round about the same time as many of my friends and I have yet to hear of any of them who had any bad reaction. In the same report it said the second dose was milder.

Ok that is different and about tolerance caused by the body going into autopilot because you give it an artificial crutch. As for snakes whatever doesn't kill you can also kill you next time.

I was talking about antibiotics or vaccines which work to fight bacteria or viruses. If you have a local infection the rest of the body can live without antibiotics for a long time but you will feel really rough for most of that time and your infection may spread to other areas. Without medicines, antiseptics etc you can die from a cut. Without a vaccine a proportion of people would die from tetanus or smallpox or polio etc.

Or I'm sure you can put an onion in your sock and draw the poison out etc.

Re: Covid-19 Vaccinations

I had the Astra Zeneca last month, yes it made me feel very tired and a sore arm for a couple of days but its not major. I didnt really have a choice, either my daughters would have killed me if I didnt get the jab or Covid would have done as I have a rare illness and im clinically extremely vulnerable.
I have a flu jab every year so this was just another jab for another illness that I don't want to get!

Six weeks ago I was on a covid ward, now only 17 patients in hospital in Shropshire with it.
