Now our estemed leader wants everyone to have the booster by the new year, thats over a million a day, the guy isnt all there surely, great idea, but just saying it doesnt make it happen, and i can see it being possible. And if like me youve just had covid, you cant have the booster until after that anyway. Guys on a different planet.

I don't know the facts about this but I believed the vaccines aren't effective for some days after the jab (maybe a couple of weeks??)

I do know that most people will be going to gatherings of one sort out o another in the next 2-3 weeks.

So what sense can there be in attempting to undertake that many vaccines in that timeframe?

Seems to me that if anything it may make things worse!

I agree, it will give people a faulse sence that they are safe, but i was more on about the logistics of how its even possible

I am having trouble understanding why offering shots to over 18's is such an issue? If the government refused jabs this age group people would be calling them out as short sighted. Now they've brought it forward (or are offering it), it either won't work, it's a diversion or world's laughing at us?

If there were no vaccines people would be crying out for them. If there were vaccines in other countries and the UK weren't authorising them we'd be crying out for them. Now we have them there's cohorts that don't realise how well off we are sitting compared to other countries.

Even if they had vaccine centres open 24hr a day,7 days a week,enough pop up premises and staff,as well as what we have already,for the next 3 weeks to do these boosters,it will be an impossible task

Bojo has no idea about the reality of logistics

Also as people have said it will give the people a false sense of security,it's not insta-immunity after the jab

If reasons are it's not instant immunity or the logistics are too large then this is nothing new to what is already known.

With the original jabs we were told immunity is not built up until around 3 weeks after, and as far as the logistics, setting up the initial vaccine rollout was something completely unprepared, so at least there is a blueprint.

Have you not seen any news in the last week. Boris is against the ropes taking beating about parties and who paid to decorate number 10. Pushing the booster jab conviniant way to try a keep the heat off of him.

Beyond 3 weeks for decent immune response after the booster. With a projected 1 million cases by the end of December, not sure how boosters alone will drop the infection numbers, lower NHS intake..
