@chrischirp@beilinglaoshi @mart_compton @NHSEngland It is madness . I’m in my late fifties . I know quite a few of my peers who have been ill in bed for a week with Covid - so missing work etc . You wd of thought a jab wd be cheaper than the loss in productivy !
🧚♀️As I sat in the hall during our Primary School assemblies, I used to watch the fairies dancing within a strip of light from between the curtains.
Little did I know...

@moneyfornowork@Steven_Swinford Also next age group down (im 57) many have got kids in that age group . Many of my friends have . My kids are both 20. They already do voluntary work but it’s way better if people choose to do it rather than force people to do it .
@moneyfornowork@Steven_Swinford I was thinking just that . It is so ill thought out too. The organisations they wd be joining are short staffed yet suddenly they are expected to train & supervise hundreds of thousands of extras . Would there be a whole year group that doesn’t go to uni ? Mad utterly mad.
@SunderlandLolly I knew what you meant . There are a lot of barriers to voting . So many candidates in London Mayor election here - not happy at all that we’ve regressed and gone first past the post . Hmmm . Can’t think why ......🤔
@SunderlandLolly@1goodtern @Sandyboots2020 @Saffiya_Khan1 That’s the JCVIs “bespoke non standard” cost benefit analysis for you . It ignores long Covid and days lost to work which could include caring for someone vulnerable. They’ve already said autumn 2024 boosters programme will be smaller . It’s a bit messed up IMO.
@AlisonNolan9@singingsox It’s really mad - in my family a number of us have indicators of hEDS to varying degrees -my niece ( sisters daughter ) who is severely impacted does actually have a diagnosis but had to get it privately .
@drsimonwilliams@UKHSA I actually don’t have issue with anyone understanding what is being offered & why - it’s just there clearly isn’t the cut through anymore on the @UKHSA position . We are privileged to live in the age of the standard childhood vaccines - yet many don’t seem to realise this .
@drsimonwilliams It’s pretty sad when families are suspicious of something our health authorities deem very safe & effective & choose instead to believe unqualified friends who have done some bad research on the internet. It’s @UKHSA job to reestablish this trust .
@ianmSC I find it weird that you let this bother you . Lots of different reasons why people choose to mask in whatever scenario - this includes those for whom vaccines don’t work as well. I think people have the right to choose what they do not be bullied by the likes of you
