    Information about the different vaccines (& what's in them) is available on the Government's website See: https://www.gov.uk/health-and-social-care/pharmacy  scrolling down to 'News and communications' for info on the AstraZeneca, Pfizer & Moderna vaccines.
    Michael Yeadon, a former vice-president of Pfizer, is debunked in this report:
    I hope Scope continue to ensure correct info is given at all times in reference to the Covid-19 vaccines.

    @chiarieds I wanted Mike's opinion I didn't disclose exactly what was being said I thought the same as Mike when I saw it  as I had already said to Mike what was being said on the Welsh corona virus group then what I said to Mike came up thats all I wasn't giving information I was asking

    Apologies for posting. I didn't say you were giving info, nor did I even tag you. My only concern is that I don't want people to lose confidence in the Covid-19 vaccines, especially due to someone like Michael Yeadon, whom you drew attention to.

    @lisathomas50 I've added an advisory note to some of your posts above, linking to official sources relating to the covid vaccines.  This is to avoid people searching Mike Yeadon and being unnecessarily alarmed by his unproven allegations.

    Although I know there was no ill-intent, please be mindful to not draw attention to non evidence-based assertions that could deter people from having the vaccine.  As the majority of our members our disabled, and particularly vulnerable to covid-19, it's important people are informed by only that which is factually correct.  Thank you.

    Hi everyone, the original question for this particular thread was "do you think we'll all be back to normal by the summer?
    The bulk of the conversation is now arguments about the vaccine. 
    I just wanted to say, I can't even remember what it's like to have a "normal" life. I've been housebound for around seven years now, mostly due to deteriorating health but also because Social Services have reduced my hours by so much that there's no time for my carer for escort me even on a weekly outing. So for me, the "lockdown" will continue. It's like a prison sentence. I'm trying my best to stay sane and strong but I can't really see any light at the end of the tunnel... Vaccine or no vaccine...

    in passing.......

    Very unsettling today huge queues stretching down the road (blocking the pavement) to a food court (both sides ) and no social distancing!!

    Bars rammed full and queues at some!!

    yes outside but still risky and crazy from quiet last week

    It's perhaps been bad timing that the relaxation of some of the rules in England has coincided in the appearance of that yellow thing in the sky.
    2024 The year of the general election...the time for change is coming 💡

    Just gone from ‘one extreme’ to ‘the other’

    Suppose with the surge of folk it’s difficult to calm the tide! (But their actions cld cause harsher measures)
