    Thank you ..

    Hopefully this is the light at the end of the tunnel .. I just wish I had more faith in our government.. doesn’t matter which party is in control they have all been totally inept and corrupt since the 1960’s ..

    ....


    UK regulators have issued a warning that people who have a history of "significant" allergic reactions should not currently receive the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine.

    Two NHS staff members who had the jab yesterday experienced allergic reactions.

    Makes me wonder why THEY risked having it though given their medical histories ...

    A government official said that they were expecting the odd issue or reaction BUT maybe not on the very first day ..

    Sometimes you just have to "pick your poison", eh? Not dying of COVID-19 was higher on their list than risking another allergic reaction, especially since they'll get repeated exposure while on the job- we've lost doctors & nurses under those circumstances. Personally, I think they made the right choice.

    Well it appears that they managed to treat them quickly so that’s a positive.

    The only thing though, if someone has an allergic reaction to a vaccine, does that mean it won't work for them at all? or is there a chance it will still be effective? Maybe they don't even know yet, I guess it might be different for each situation?
