Girlfriends Dad died of COVID this morning :(

Condolences, very sad, did he have underlying health issues?

 

[denislawsbackheel]

Is it still around 21 days that they expect one dose of the AZ vaccine to kick in btw in terms of protection? Or am I mixing that up with Pfizer? Has anyone read anything recently about that?

Full effects at 21 days

Returned from my jab. Astrazeneca. Very ordinary.

Wasn’t sure how to take this, what were you expecting?...

From memory, you start to see protection after 7-10 days, increasing gradually after that.
