Have been a season card holder for 38 years. I am suffering really badly with Covid at the moment. Waiting for a doctor to call me back through 111. i have a terrible feeling that that game will be the last that I see.
Keep strong blue, you’ll be there with the rest of us soon watching the mighty blues again
 
This wouldn’t surprise me at all.

the vaccine efficacy % would be accurate if it was figures from a challenge trial, but unfortunately, it’s not.

I’m of the opinion that the vast majority of the people who had the vaccine in the trial never actually came into contact with the virus at all.
The majority of people in both arms of the trial did not come into contact with Covid so as to catch it, you can tell that by looking at the figures.
But well over 100 did in the placebo arm because they caught Covid.
It was a randomised blinded trial so the chances are very very high indeed that over 100 in the vaccine group did. That's how trials work.
 
It would have to be a heck of a coincidence to produce this graph:



It looks so god damn decisive that they must be some ridiculously strong confidence intervals.

Indeed.

Hang tight mate.
Keep us updated if possible.

All the best we are all rooting for you
 
I honestly think some people thrive on doom.

Is that seriously your take from this? Assuming that your post was aimed at me, at least in part, for linking the Pfizer stuff. Straight up, you couldn't be further from the truth. This thing has affected everyone mentally, some more than others. The ironic thing is I've posted positive stuff on this very thread tonight but if anything that might be of concern goes up this is the reaction? It doesn't make any sense. Is the rule only to post happy clappy stuff and ignore everything else?

Maybe read the last line of your original post back? The one that ends in “worst for humanity” - yes people are struggling including many in here and I don’t think your last line was responsible or helpful or accurate. Ok?

I think you've misread my post in that case. Those aren't my words. I've quoted it from the person who's analysing the ongoing vaccine data in Israel, are they wrong? If so, great news.

you say yourself there are some replies which contradict the positive data and then go on to quote (without quotation marks) one that reads with that comment. I just didn’t really see the need and it was incredibly dramatic and negative. Anyone let’s move on. More worried about the poor lad in here who is ill.

Hang tight blue. Keep fighting and dial 999 if your not satisfied. You must get your oxygenation levels checked.
 
Can’t hit sleep as I’m throwing up now. Not huge amounts but enough.
Usually a sign the body is expelling ‘bad stuff’ but in this case I’m not quite sure.
 
Sounds shite mate, just make sure you keep replacing those fluids.
It really is mate.
Never one to underestimate this but I’ve been surprised how much it’s hammered me....very rare I get ill given I eat healthy
, run/exercise daily etc.

has there been a link between viral loads & severity of the illness ?

No idea. All I know is that stories like yours and Tolmie’s of relatively fit guys taking a hammering is what has put the fear in me. I was never that worried about catching covid, but it does seem that many more people in middle age are getting it bad, hence I’m doing my best to have zero interactions. Hope you improve soon.
 
i am going to do old man of coniston and snowdon this summer. Been doing 5k at least every day to build my stamina. Only issue I have is that when I do a hill walk my toe nail goes black? Am I doing something wrong?
You’ll love Old man, park at the bottom near the lake and do the loop. On a good day you can see the coast, it’s fucking brilliant mate. Up there as my favourite walk.
Can’t wait to get out and about again.
