How long has Covid been around and you still don’t know that you can be double vaccinated and STILL get Covid!

Being Vaccinated prevents you if you catch Covid of not being hospitalised or dying..

So why do vaccinated people want kids jabbed ? So they don’t feel rough for a few days ?

some teens and kids will die from the vaccine like they have everywhere else they’ve been given it and some kids will get myocarditis from it,

if you’ve chosen the vaccine to stop you getting very sick or dying then trust your vaccine and leave the kids alone

I have been poorly since Friday, aching, temperature, coughing all night. I have taken two LFTs but both were negative. Could it just be an early case of the flu?

Absolutely or just a bad cold. There’s a lot going round at the minute and with stronger symptoms than usual.

I watched a report saying more people are getting coughs and stuff but testing negative, but that’s down to that now restrictions have been eased people will come down with all the colds we all got before Covid

Friend at work done exactly that. Cold/sore throat. 2 lateral negatives and gone to drive through.

Personally - I'd carry on without lateral flow if it feels like standard cold/flu and you've had a jab. Nothing in the guidance says to test does it?

You mean without pcr? I would too depending on the symptoms although lfts tend to be more for when you don’t have symptoms and pcrs are for when you do.

Up to the Parents for them to vaccinated there children. Like it’s up to any adult to be vaccinated!

Yeah, not saying there is anything wrong with those that want to test, but today that's two people who I've heard that think they've got a cold going for multiple tests.

To reduce the likelihood of them passing it on and spreading it further.

If they’ve not got a high temperature or a cough with it, then they shouldn’t need to go for tests.
