It's good to hear that members of CT are receiving their vaccinations, good luck to all those yet to have theirs. It seems like a long haul till we get everyone sorted and hear the results of the present vaccines.

I'm leaving this open for non political comments as per the guidelines. Hope you can add your own experiences and thoughts.

My first jab comes up tomorrow, I'm so glad we have research institutions that have got us this far! And I am planning breaks away in the hope of improvements on the horizon.

"When I was born Smallpox vaccination was compulsory, anybody think that was a mistake?"

But smallpox, although still a virus, was of a completely different order of magnitude wasn't it, killing something like 30% of those who contracted it (I just had to look that up!) This virus, awful though it is, is not in the same league.

What you should also look up is the evolution of the Smallpox virus and it’s varying lethality over time in different places depending on the variant. It might look like chalk & cheese from a very narrow perspective, but who’s to say Covid over time will be in a different league?
