Re: Vaccine has Arrived
It's brilliant news but Kay Birley on Sky was more focused on whether a scotch egg was a substantial meal or whether you could eat a takeaway in a wet pub.
Pathetic woman but Matt Hancock was having none of it.
Today should be seen as a good news day. Ignore those who choose to spoil it.

In March when we first isolated this day was but a dream, it's such good news and a real mood lifter

Re: Vaccine has Arrived
It's fantastic new in my opinion.
I was listening to LBC yesterday and they had four, consecutive anti vaxxers on.
Total conspiracy theory nut jobs.
So, be careful ladies and gentlemen.
'They' are after controlling your mind ( nobody could explain who 'they' are )
I'll be having it as soon as it's available and take my chance.
If they want my mind, they are welcome to it.

Re: Vaccine has Arrived
A bit of good news to end what has been a very depressing year. We will both have the vaccine as soon as we are offered it, and not bothered even if it does contain a chip so the govt can keep track of me, at least when I next get lost someone will be able to find me!!!

I would suspect that the army will be involved somewhere in this operation - after all that is a large part of their role.Bensham33 wrote: 02 Dec 2020, 10:37Good luck to whoever has to organise the logistics of getting the vaccines around the country.

Re: Vaccine has Arrived
Do these people not read/listen to the news? - this is being treated as an humanity crisis. None of these companies (except perhaps Trump's mates) have said that they are doing anything other than charging for the actual cost of production. The "big bucks" will come from second/third generation vaccines.Mervyn and Trish wrote: 02 Dec 2020, 11:43We (Moorlands Radio) reported it on our Facebook news feed this morning.david63 wrote: 02 Dec 2020, 08:09The Pfizer vaccine has been approved for use in the UK![]()

Re: Vaccine has Arrived
Before: "B****y useful country this. Why are we always last to do everything................. Boris is a waste of space.............. Scotland (and any other country) are on the ball, not like us.................blah, blah, blah".
Went into town this morning and overheard this conversation, " Well I'm not having the vaccine. Nobody else has got it so I'm not going to be a guinea pig for the rest of the world. They're not testing it out on me!"
No pleasing some people is there? Some people revel in their own misery.

Perhaps they just like moaning.
Next they'll be moaning because they haven't had the vaccine yet.
