COVID-19 — Coronavirus

[SWP's back]

Mate, you seem to have your finger on the pulse. Maybe this is a daft question, but is there any science that shows what happens when you administer a vaccine to those that have tested positive? Does the vaccine have any impact at all or is it too late by then?

Too late.

There was one with MHRA this morning. Yesterday I heard that Hancock would update Parliamenet this afternoon.

You can watch it on Youtube or see some of their data on here:

I haven't heard anything about this.

I think that it'll likely be one of two options for anyone who's recovered already:
- you already have decent antibody level, and therefore it makes no/very little difference in the long run
- you don't or have a low level, and it boosts antibody production that it's designed to

If you have the virus at the time of vaccination, it may have some benefit by boosting the immune response faster, but I doubt there is much data on this. It's not normally how vaccines are used.

My year has been one of work-eat-sleep. My mum is terminally ill so we see her only under very careful circumstances. Though as she only has months she cares less and isnt as strict. I agree with her. She needs to ‘live’ whilst she can.

im lucky, im self emp but been busy. My 2 little ones (8 and 5) are still obviously at home and although its been shite for them with no activities, pals round etc we still all have each other. My oldest is 19 at uni, he fine.

so although im dead lucky i still desire the normal things in life. Itll come but please dont think going on the piss is all i care about. Its low in my priorities

our big thing is going away. After a tough year with mental health we started going away for the night/weekend every six weeks. With a cheeky weekend away never more than 6 weeks away it cured me and life changed for the better. We covered our map in the kitchen with pins over 3 years, so for that to come to a sudden halt hit me hard.

so when i say normality i mean just that. But health comes first of course.
So all i need is “hang on in there for 2-3 more months” ... then thats what i need. The unknown is a struggle for me. But buts opening is a small part of that normal life we took for granted

happy NY to you and yours. Stay safe. Keep being a miserable sod, the change wouldnt suit you ;)

Thanks. I'm sorry I took the wrong end of the stick with your post this morning, and we ended up trading punches.

I so sorry to hear of your Mum's problems and know exactly what you're going through, compounded because of the fear of covid. I hope you are able to spend as much time as you can with her, I know I wish I had with mine.

This has been a shit year for us all and I guess we have all been ground down mentally in some way because of it being so long since we experienced normality.

Anyway, here is to a better 2021 and your mention of offering me your hand to shake with another poster didn't go unnoticed, and I would gratefully accept it.

The way they are talking on the news makes it sound like Greater Manchester will stay as tier 3 - they seem to be implying it’ll be West Midlands and some parts of Lancashire that’ll head into tier 4.

Madness.
