Record daily dose number as younger Australians go for AstraZeneca

Younger Australians have shown a stronger interest in getting the AstraZeneca vaccine in the days since Prime Minister Scott Morrison made a controversial move to make it easier for them to see their doctor amid a backlash from some states against the idea

This is an overwhelming success

Quote:

.................. A nationwide vaccination campaign in Israel found the Pfizer–BioNTech vaccine, co-developed by Pfizer in New York City and BioNTech in Mainz, Germany, to be 95% effective against SARS-CoV-2 infection seven days or more after the second dose.
The Gamaleya National Research Center of Epidemiology and Microbiology in Moscow and the Russian Direct Investment Fund announced that their Sputnik V vaccine has been 97% effective in almost 4 million people in Russia.
And last month, London-based Public Health England reported4 that the Pfizer–BioNTech and Oxford–AstraZeneca vaccines are both 85–90% effective in preventing symptomatic disease after two doses. ......................

The US has 10% of the covid deaths it had 4 months ago.

7,700,000 covid vaccinations given in Aust.

Congratulations to the Morrison Government on getting the nation to the almost 6 percent of the population fully vaccinated against Covid-19

Look out Slovakia (29%) and Costa Rica (16%) - we're closing in on you

Incidentally, I joined the "six percent club" - with a second shot of AstraZeneca, last Saturday

I also had the flu shot, two weeks prior
NO side effects, whatsoever, from either
Not even a tender spot

Died with covid was counted as died from covid. So how easy it is to make the stat's look less? Stop bullshyting on the stats as much.

Well done Bobby.
Thank you for helping our society.

Thanks Sprint,
Brave sir Bobby got his AZ vax today.
If I die from it I want to be remembered as the brave one.

I want to go overseas this year.
I know I'll need to be fully vaccinated first.
There is no getting around it -
the vax is compulsory.
Sooner or later you'll need one just to travel outside your suburb.
Later on you'll need one to go to the supermarket.

I don't know what my chances are against that wicked Delta Indian variant?
It will take 3 months before my booster and then how
long after that to get high immunity?
I don't think they can promise 95% immunity as per
the original Chinese bio weapon Covid - vaccines.
It will be more like 60% immunity?

What worries me is that we've had vaccines for over 100 years yet
no one ever came up with a vaccine for the common cold of
which one type is from the coronavirus -
yet within only 6 months of discovering Covid-19 - a form of coronavirus -
every man and his dog had a vaccine. Embarrassed

yes.
We also had a supply problem but it was mainly complacency because covid was really not here.

So, quite understandable really
