Re: Covid Vacs
When I was in hospital earlier this year there were Army medics /nurses on the ward helping with the day to day running of the ward. Sorry but nice lads as they were they were not a lot of use. One guy was trying to take blood from me, left my arm like a dart board. Obviously best suited for immediate first aid.

Re: Covid Vacs
I speak to many people up the R.S.L. club and none of them like me have a clue what is happening about the jab, but no worries all the MPs have had it, as no one thinks it will affect their brains or blood.

Re: Covid Vacs
Sounds as if the Australian vaccine roll out is a bigger disaster than the EU? Good luck all.

Re: Covid Vacs
Lewis, two factors here in Oz which have stuffed up the system.
Firstly the EU blocked the export of some 4 million doses of AZ we have PAID for!!!!
Second is the Labor gov in a couple of states playing God in an attempt to undermine the Federal Gov which is Liberal.
Today the PM sat down with all the state premiers to tell them to get their A888 into gear and get the vaccine out and into arms.


Happy daze John in Oz.

Re: Covid Vacs
Alas not funny when you do have side effects, my wife has a swollen arm and has fainted twice, but the doctor says it is not the chemotherapy, but it's worrying nevertheless
