New Vaccines
See there are growing number of people that will refuse to take the vaccine.
The conspiracy theory is that Bill Gates invented the virus and developed the vaccine in order to control us all.
Some of the anti vaxers, theories could be creditable and some are down right ridiculous.
People are clamouring to get back to normal and the only way out at the mo, is to take the vaccine, or not. So it boils down to the following:-
1) Lead a normal life.
2) Protect against the virus.
Or stay isolated with the restrictions.
Me I am for the vaccine an those that refuse should be asked to sign a card that they must carry at all times.
If they get the illness as they have opted out, then they should not be treated.
Your thoughts?

Re: New Vaccines
Should go back to what was once the norm in shipping at least. Every seaman had to carry a valid and up to date vaccination card , which means should now read Smallpox, cholera, Yellow fever, Corvus 19. As easy as that. JS.

hi keith
i heard the other day one kind hearted soul, ( employed by the charity squad ) stating that in her opinion the vaccine should be given firstly to the third world, ( because they are most needy of it ) so we all might have to go and get our injections from Dr sabu in india instead of our local Dr sabu here in the uk.

Must say Dr Sabu has come a long way since herding elephants in Bombay.

Re: New Vaccines
If someone was giving me a vaccine which may save my life I would not care if his name was Sabu, O'Sabu
or Mac Sabu

Re: New Vaccines
As said by JS think a Card to all who get the Jab is a good idea, and should be kept and updater each Year. Hope that this Jab will be effective though???
Still in the testing stages i fear!
