"Because I didn't get my jabs in this country they can't put me on the digital database as vaccinated so I have to show my card as proof ." If you have an NHS number you can make an appointment to show your vaccination proof and it can be added to your NHS records. | |||

"bear here, I had it while working in America. they bought 200,000 doses of it but gave it all away to other countries. the booster gives 85% resistance to omicron. trying to get the booster in this country is a nightmare. Because I didn't get my jabs in this country they can't put me on the digital database as vaccinated so I have to show my card as proof ." Have you had your booster yet? Most walk in centres will do your booster provided it's been 3 months since your last covid vaccination. Shouldn't be a problem. | |||

"I don't think it's been used much if at all in the UK. " It's an adenovirus-vector vaccine. The astrazeneca vaccine is also that. | |||

"I don't think it's been used much if at all in the UK. It's an adenovirus-vector vaccine. The astrazeneca vaccine is also that." Yes but I think the Johnson and Johnson is just one dose. | |||

"I don't think it's been used much if at all in the UK. It's an adenovirus-vector vaccine. The astrazeneca vaccine is also that." That's right. Difference being the AZ vector is chimp adenovirus whereas J&J one uses a human adenovirus. I read early on that there have been concerns with using adenovirus vectors in terms of immunity or preexisting immunity to adenoviruses. The worry was that once you immunised with an adenovirus vector, the person would have immunity to that adenovirus and therefore it may not be as effective to use the same as a booster later on. Similarly, if someone had preexisting immunity to the particular adenovirus then vaccination may not be effective. In some populations it's been estimated that immunity against adenoviruses is quite high. Using a chimp adenovirus was AZ way of circumventing any potential preexisting immunity to adenoviruses but it doesn't deal with any issues when trying to use the same vector to immunise again. I wonder if this could be why AZ appears to be less effective as a booster | |||

"I don't think it's been used much if at all in the UK. It's an adenovirus-vector vaccine. The astrazeneca vaccine is also that." does that mean its not a mrna, i was thinking the non mrna would have the least side effects | |||
