Quote from Liz Truss the UK's international trade secretary, 'it is "not wise" to make long-term predictions, after modelling by a sub-group of SAGE showed that even with a vaccine that can stop transmission, lockdown would need to last until May and social distancing until the end of the year'.

At the moment no I won't be taking a relatively untested vaccine against something that has a pretty low chance of affecting me.
I don't meet old people so I won't affect them either.
And I meet very few people in my daily life.

So I will wait until those more in need are vaccinated and reassess then.

Yes I know they want to give as many people as possible the first dose but this is feckin crazy and very very dangerous.

It is Irresponsible !! To the Nth degree !

They’re betting the horse and house that they miraculously shall have new source in time ? ,

or I don’t know what the H !

Pushing a vaccine second shot from 3 weeks to Twelve under these circumstances

is unconscionable , potentially on scale with crimes against humanity .

This is BoJo and his cronies we're dealing with here, they're ineptitude doesn't surprise me.

But when dealing with the lives of millions of people they should be following medical advice 100%, not making up the rules as they go along...

That's pretty much where I stand on it.

mutating like crazy.
