Coronavirus (2021) thread

Moderna is only a half dose so should have less side effects, if any. I’ll certainly be hunting Moderna out, following my 2 earlier Pfizer’s.

Thank you. I guess it is down to luck and your constitution or maybe age.

I remember Mrs Mangel

I only got to interview cast from A Country Practice when in Australia researching my book on soaps.

Though sitting by the pool on South Fork Ranch in Braddock, Texas was more fun working on the Dallas part.

It really was very windy like on the show. They needed no special effects for that!

My dickhead ex got double jabbed and a booster and STILL got covid.

The only thing I don't know about is if she wore masks when she was out. I suspect she did, here and there. I remember her telling me my lad's school was doing jabs to kids, permission bypassed. I told her that was up to her, so who knows how her infection happened.

That's what happens when you think you're "immune".

GM boroughs weekly past 7 day case totals:

Oldham 755, Bury 786, Bolton 866, Salford 888, Rochdale 1082, Tameside 1098 , Wigan 1345, Trafford 1421, Stockport 1625, Manchester 1831


More changes as numbers climb almost everywhere - The main one is that Bury loses its long held lowest score top spot to Oldham who has been closing in for days. Bolton gained ground on Bury too.

Trafford fell well again. Manchester's lead over Stockport grew though both were up and is now 206 over Stockport who is itself are 204 ahead of the still improving Trafford.

Anyone who had AZ for their first two jabs had the Pfizer booster yet?

My younger brother had it yesterday. He has also had Covid last year. But says he feels much worse after this one than he did with any of those.

He is due to make the long drive to Brighton tomorrow - and the trek by train to the West Ham game next week - so I hope he feels better by the morning.

I know it could just be a coincidence and be some other bug and I have not read anything about this as far as I can recall. But wondered if anyone in here had experienced a bad reaction from the change of vaccine. It is a very differnt type to AZ so I assume works dfferently on your immune system.

Will not stop me having the booster when I am due but curious if this was common.

A friend of mine had double AZ earlier and his Pfizer booster yesterday and was floored for the day. He’s a bit better today.

I guess it shows the vaccine works.

The way I feel with it currently, I am glad I’ve had 2 jabs because if this is how bad you feel with 2 jabs I dread to think what it would be like with none!
