My friend who is 56 and has had both jabs has just tested positive for covid. She felt absolutely fine but had a slight cough. The only reason she got tested was because she was going on holiday. She said you could have knocked her down with a feather when she got the positive result. Scarey to think many out there are walking around oblivious to the fact that they have covid.

On the upside though sounds like the vaccine is doing it’s job and stopping them getting seriously ill. So bodes well for the 19th !!

I don't know how people can still be surprised at this. "Vaccine" does not stop you catching or spreading covid. It only reduces the effects of covid

People will be walking around with covid, surely as with your friend, it just vindicates the whole innoculation programme.

Yes I am aware of that but it's frightening to know they can spread to unvaccinated folk when walking around unaware they have covid.

It's great news if her vaccine derived immunity keeps her safe, though sad she'll miss her holiday.

The false sense of security that many of us will get from not seeing/feeling symptoms is part of the dark side to the virus, where we can go about infecting others.

With cases rising so much, now is the time to double down on doing the things that we can to help to protect others.

. To me the whole point of vaccinating everyone who is vulnerable is that “others” don’t need protecting.

They expect us to walk around with it from August (2 jabbed folk)

If I felt slightly unwell, I'd cover my face, and get on with life. Feeling too unwell to leave the house, is exactly what I'd do - stay in.

I wonder the same. I think it is cos the mainstream media dont report on it.

The mainstream media have been reporting the facts that you can still catch and spread covid. Unfortunately many people do not listen to exactly what they are being told. Additionally the leaflets you get when you have your vaccinations inform you that you are not 100% protected.

Yes, the might not listen. I see, should they really be giving the people those leaflets?

Not sure what you mean. Everyone who has had a jab will get a leaflet. In fact you get one at both vaccinations

I read it wrong there and thought it said "you are" and not "not" there, so yes, it is good that they give it to them.

It's been massively reported upon..

What seems to be happening is that some are using the fact that being vaccinated and still susceptible to infection is a reason to not be jabbed..

Reducing the effects has and will save hospitalisation and deaths as we've seen since the start of the year..

The leaflets contain a lot more information than just the levels of protection, when that is etc ..

Whether they are fully read by some is another matter..

That's why they are asked to self test every now and then to hopefully keep on top of it. If you don't self test and many people don't bother then you will not know. Simple logic really don't you think

No..

They can be as can people not vaccinated..

The difference being that those who are vaccinated will on the whole have lesser effects if they catch it..

As this post proves anyone can get it even those vaccinated.

In my opinion there are far to many people who think they are invinsable just because they are vaccinated and these are the people taking far more risks than those unvaccinated

But loads of unvaccinated people are unsympathetic too.

Surely thats exactly why everyone who can vaccinated should be.

This is why I am extra cautious now, we have no idea who has it, a super spreader Infected 19 people from one football game shown at a local pub here, the person had no symptoms and is double vaxxed, he only found out from work testing him the next day as a routine testing

Testing minimum twice a week is so important

Hope your friend is OK bluebell x

Huh? The point of vaccines are to protect everyone.
