If you are a doctor who doesn't believe in the effectiveness of Covid vaccines then you are in the wrong job.

[Dr Kevin Fong @Kevin_Fong]

For the avoidance of doubt: Vaccines work. 135 million doses given in the U.K. Nearly ten billion doses given worldwide. Plenty of evidence. Plenty of protection. Help us to help you. #GetVaccinated #GetBoosted #NHS #COVID19

Half an hour before I walked down the aisle on my wedding day:

*Phone rings*

Hospital switchboard: On call Orthopaedics? Got a call for you

Me: No I’m not on call I’m about to walk down the aisle at my wedding

Switchboard: No you’re on call it says down here.

You spelled "victims" wrong.

@AlexRichter3 @sfaustini @immunologydoc @BanhamGemma Excellent! Does this data include how functional the antibodies against omicron are as well?

[Jane Haynes @JaneRockHouse]

Amid all the talk of boosters, we still have to face the dire reality that more than 4 in 10 Brummies have not yet had a single jab. Not a single dose. In some of our most deprived areas and where population majority Pakistani, Bangladeshi, Black, the take up’s even lower…

[Professor Alex Richter @AlexRichter3]

Wow 😯 cases have jumped steeply today. We need 1) social distancing and masks to reduce transmission 2) oral antivirals to keep people out of hospital 3) enough drugs, beds and staff in hospital to give those admitted the best care we can

Natural immunity from covid: Prof Paul Moss @VivaldiBham
says Sars immunity lasted ten years and he is hopeful that having already had Covid WILL protect against Omicron too. @bbcmtd

So great seeing the impact of our research!

Prior #SARSCoV2 infection increases the strength and quality of #ImmuneResponse in double vaccinated #CareHome staff and residents. The findings are part of the ongoing @VivaldiBham study led by Prof Paul Moss & Dr Gokhan Tut with @HDR_UK and @ucl: https://t.co/hc3Rr41pYL @UKHSA

[Edward Nirenberg 🇺🇦 @ENirenberg]

For boosters based on ancestral spike to manage 70-75% VE against Omicron is nothing short of phenomenal and I don’t understand how that is not the message. It could have been far, far worse and substantially exceeds anything I expected. Please get vaccinated.

Now, how do I convince my relatives to get the booster when their colleagues aunts friends cousins uncles cats dog died horrifically after getting the third dose? 🤔

I don't know who needs to hear this but Polio and smallpox never reached natural herd immunity. They were eradicated by vaccines.

Turns out all vaccines cause during pregnancy is a dose of cuteness. My handsome boy is 10 weeks today. 💙
