Got notification today from Renal Charity that a 5th jab followed by autumn booster prior to my flu jab is on the way.

Just hope they don't do drug tests at my local swimming pool.

Since vaccines aren't drugs you won't have anything to worry about

As I was on a clinical trial and my first two didn't count, I had my fifth about a month ago. It's all good

Hope you keep safe OP.

I'm not sure how anyone can have missed the need for a booster, it's been on TV, radio, advertising on billboards,on social media.

Waiting for the invite for my 4th. But I think they are generally only doing the over 85 and super high risk. At least for now.

They will probably give the new boosters with flu jab going on

It is the over 75s in England, that are being invited for their 4th currently, due to vulnerability because of age. Other vulnerable groups too.

Had full blown flu twice, had schmovid twice..flu is far worse in my opinion..for me it was anyway, especially given the fact that the second time I had schmovid I had no idea anything was wrong with me until I got randomly tested.

I won’t be rushing for it.

I’ve had the two jabs, plus the first booster last year.

My recent test results still show my blood results showed ‘antibodies at a higher level’.

I’ve not even had a cold in three years.

I've always been pro choice. vaccinations, like all drugs, cannot have a one glove fits all approach. Let's face it because of the life span of the drugs nobady if "fully vaxed".

I wish that people could accept this and get on with their lives without haranguing others.

I'm tired of this society turning on itself especially on this subject. If it's not brexit it's the current government, vaccine or not vaccine, (natural immunity).

Stop being nasty to one another.

the 05th and the booster are only top ups so your not going to be over the limit with whatever the contents of the jabs are - and the flu is the annual shot which is normal so you should be well protected as we do back into panic season in the autumn/ winter

I think eventually you'll have to pay for the jabs,get people thinking they need it,then they'll continue to keep getting them even if they have to pay for them.....its the same with the lateral flow test kits,people are buying them now when they were originally free,because they in the habit of having to test themselves...drug companies are on a right earner here,speculate to accumulate.

Had 4th Booster 10 days ago. They were saying that they are gearing up for a 5th booster sometime in Autumn.

Makes sense, as immunity does fade over time and it seems by 6 months any protection is back to zero again. (I suspect it's more likely to be virtually nil after 3 months personally, but that's anecdotal conjecture at this moment in time).

Immunity is not back to zero after 3 or 6 months. The fact they're not starting from scratch with the primary dosing schedule tells you all you need to know. A booster has to have something to boost - namely B memory cells. Even the most immunocompromised person will make some level of memory and remember, we cannot quantify/measure the T memory cell bank. The fact that some people who were exposed to SARS1 in the early 2000s are still showing some level of immune memory suggests there's going to be long lived memory at low levels.

Thank you for explaining that.

I just wish I could know with some certainty exactly what the level of immunity is at a given point in time. It does make deciding whether to go out or not very difficult to decide.

There comes a point when one thinks "Well, if I treat it as nil, I can at least modulate my response to that accordingly". Erring with caution, I suppose.

I'd be more worried about the pressure of living in constant fear of the virus than the actual effects of covid but we each have to assess that risk ourselves.

Personally I'd lose my mind living like that.

I think people overstate this fear business. Keys, phone, wallet, mask.

Job done.

The fact that people need to paint it as some sort of psychologically paralysing condition probably says more about them than those of us just getting on with it.

Well given that the thought of a mask over my face is enough to make me break out in a sweat then yes, It can be paralysing.

Not my point though, the constant fear being peddled by the media throughout has had a massive impact on lots of people's mental health including my own during the initial "lockdown"

"Immunity is not back to zero after 3 or 6 months. The fact they're not starting from scratch with the primary dosing schedule tells you all you need to know. A booster has to have something to boost - namely B memory cells. Even the most immunocompromised person will make some level of memory and remember, we cannot quantify/measure the T memory cell bank. The fact that some people who were exposed to SARS1 in the early 2000s are still showing some level of immune memory suggests there's going to be long lived memory at low levels.

Thank you for explaining that.

I just wish I could know with some certainty exactly what the level of immunity is at a given point in time. It does make deciding whether to go out or not very difficult to decide.

There comes a point when one thinks "Well, if I treat it as nil, I can at least modulate my response to that accordingly". Erring with caution, I suppose. I'd be more worried about the pressure of living in constant fear of the virus than the actual effects of covid but we each have to assess that risk ourselves.

Personally I'd lose my mind living like that.

I think people overstate this fear business. Keys, phone, wallet, mask.

Job done.

The fact that people need to paint it as some sort of psychologically paralysing condition probably says more about them than those of us just getting on with it.Well given that the thought of a mask over my face is enough to make me break out in a sweat then yes, It can be paralysing.

Not my point though, the constant fear being peddled by the media throughout has had a massive impact on lots of people's mental health including my own during the initial "lockdown""

I'm sorry you've struggled, and I hope you can seek appropriate help if you desire it.

However, for many people, it's just become part of our routine. Rather than denying the existence of the virus and what it can do, we adapt and carry on.

I'm guessing you won't ever be having your annual flu jab- available to all over 50's?"

I had a flu jab only once. Made me feel ill for 4-5mth.never again. Felt worse than have the the virus itself. Had corvid when it was tbe delta strain. Ill for 6days.bit of a cough for few weeks after. Rather risk the virus. No ouss taking against those who had the vax. I say each to their own. Good luck to all no matter what yoyr view point.

There is no way they know the negative effects of these vaccines and mixing different ones without years of testing them. For eg how do they know effects on pregnant womens offspring

Exactly! Cancer research get millions from us and no cure to this day. An unknown virus comes that they know nothing about n can’t control and a vaccine is made in a classroom by kids with minimum financing!

I was in hospital during when everyone was scared to be in one the fear of catching it and elderly being vulnerable if in hospital etc separate elevator for infected had to wear a mask 24/7 within plastic curtains in ur own bed even after being swabbed..and a nurse told me there was zwro patients with covid in the entire hospital! Wasnt long before restrictions changed and there was nolonger separate elevatore to use everyone all crammed in the same ones yet was restrictions changing all the time. There was quicker testing at football matches than in a hospital for patients. ..it was madness and no one knew the truth.

Over 2 years in, it seems a reasonable assumption that the vast majority have been exposed to it at some point.

It does also seem that some folks have been able to ward off infection where others in the same house / workplace have not managed to. Good for them.

Do you comprehend that this virus is fatal for some people and is causing long term morbidity for many who may have had mild infection?

Your smug attitude may well be removed in the future.

Two members of my family died as a direct consequence of COVID infection. One was 89, the other 73. Neither was on their death bed before they caught COVID. Neither had vaccines because one caught it before the vaccine roll out and the other (the 73yo) was a COVID denier. Fat lot of good denying did him. He died in a pool of his own lung secretions.

fair play to you and hats off; your efforts in keeping healthy have indeed paid off and you are healthy ; fit and strong enough for your own immune system to do what it’s designed to do. Natural immunity is by far the more effective strategy so I can’t argue with that - well done

Not where we seem to be...

People talking about natural immunity without understanding how they aquire it.

Funny.

You get protection, or “immunity,” from a specific disease when your immune system makes an antibody for it.

Natural immunity happens after you get infected by a germ and your immune system responds by making antibodies to it.

In other words, you have to get the virus for your immune system to kick in. This is no guarantee your immune system will be able to fight off an attack.

Hence.........

*drumroll........... vaccines.

I hope no one thought I was being harsh saying people who been vaccined alot would get less symtoms so could pass it on to more without knowing and really hurt someone more vulnerable or close. Im not against the initial jabs but feel its gone too far. The fear and even worry of a loved on in hospital..yet probably was safer than being outside! No one knew zero cases in entire hospital. People were frightened whole time.

I accept cynicism towards the heartless government approach as well as helping to prioritise huge contracts for their friends and donors. Capitalism will always seek to prioritise and maximise profits, even from human suffering and disaster, unless constraints are imposed - that's the nature of the system we're within

But the concept of vaccinated immune systems being 'finished' is at odds with the huge wealth of evidence

So we've reached a point where "reduction in hospitalisations and deaths" is "not any form of protection".

"People talking about natural immunity without understanding how they aquire it.

Funny.

You get protection, or “immunity,” from a specific disease when your immune system makes an antibody for it.

Natural immunity happens after you get infected by a germ and your immune system responds by making antibodies to it.

In other words, you have to get the virus for your immune system to kick in. This is no guarantee your immune system will be able to fight off an attack.

Hence.........

*drumroll........... vaccines.

Good luck with your natural immunity everyone.

Winston

Do you believe that the vaccine gives certainty of your survival?

No. But then again I actually understand how vaccines work. Anyone who doesn't should return to school and sit their CSE's again.

I do believe that without vaccinations my chances of death or serious illness are much increased.

Are you saying/suggesting reducing symptoms isn't a form of protection?

I'm trying to see where you're coming from with that view.

These threads are quite toxic. I'm not sure what about this discussion brings it out in people.

@Winston have you seen the death rates in high %age vaccination countries versus the not so high? The difference if any is small. We know that they said this thing wasn't preventing omnicron. I personally know a number of people who got layed down very low by a COVID infection they got a fortnight after their booster, several people who were asymptomatic pre vaccines and with the more lethal strains and people who died when the milder strains had dominance and despite being upto date with boosters.

The only thing I'm absolutely certain of is that the media and governments lied to us. Rare breakthrough infections were not rare. Pandemic of the unvaccinated was also a lie.

I'm personally done with their games I was told two vaccine doses and I was good. The serious adverse events concern me and the lack of apparent efficacy does too. I think I'm done with this section because I'm tempted to be rude. That isn't who I want to be and I feel everybody should make their own calls.

Based on informed understanding. Not from snake oil salesmen, charlatans, the ill informed and/or those looking to make a fast buck out of peddling conspiracy theories.

The problem is, people don't have ability and comprehension to understand the factual information that's presented to them.

They also look for information that supports their level of understanding and their own bias. Confirmation bias is a thing.

I also think its good that you're choosing to leave the virus threads. This is a good choice and I support your freedom to choose.

"I had my 5th in march, now it's a booster twice a year for the foreseeable future.... I also had the experimental anti virals when I got round 2 COVID in January... As far as I am concerned they can fill me with whatever they want as long as I can continue to live.

Christ I’m living just fine without even one ha ha

Do you comprehend that this virus is fatal for some people and is causing long term morbidity for many who may have had mild infection?

Your smug attitude may well be removed in the future.

Two members of my family died as a direct consequence of COVID infection. One was 89, the other 73. Neither was on their death bed before they caught COVID. Neither had vaccines because one caught it before the vaccine roll out and the other (the 73yo) was a COVID denier. Fat lot of good denying did him. He died in a pool of his own lung secretions. "

Sadly it's not worth getting into discussions like this TBH. There is an alarming hole in our educational system when it comes to basic science and the ability to analyse statistics. Combine this with 'me' culture, and you are wasting your time.

Some of this is understandable. Things like Thalidomide live long in collective memories, despite the fact that science has long moved on and vaccines are now well understood, still people can't accept it.

3% of Brits believe the earth is flat and another 4% are not sure. Let's hope none of them fall off the edge (Google the Holly/Philip breakfast TV interview with the Flat earthers - it's hilarious). Most (well 93%) find (the relatively new conspiracy theory) flat earth phonomena as funny, yet there are many people who cling to (absolute belief in) seven day Creationist ideas....and for the most part they are accepted.

I'd always mandate for and defend freedom of choice. But you can't mandate for what people choose to believe or think, especially now we are bombarded from so many sides with 'news' and social media - education really needs to tackle this.

Sadly it's very easy to manipulate what people believe....Russia...?

A little naughty is good.

Indeed it does. I tend to look at as much "evidence" as possible, then backtrack it's source, the author and where possible field of expertise and if possible, the source of research funding.

If what I find is presented by a floppy haired swordsman who's promoting his tour/TV show/book, who's done his own "research" I'm quietly confident it can be discounted.

There's an awful lot of noise out there. It pays to dig below the surface and put cotton wool in your ears sometimes.

Sometimes I think people have forgotten everything they learnt about vaccines in their pre *CSE days.

"It is odd how aggressive and patronising posts are... Not like the "rate the poster aboves arse/tits/shirt/heels/holes" threads... "

It's also amazing when you actually meet some people from this site face to face they don't seem comment as they do on the forum.

We recognised the profile name of a couple in a club, walked over, said hello and introduced ourselves.

It was like we had used a cattle prod on them.

We tend to give Barn Yard Night Extravaganza at our local club a miss, just not our thing.

But plenty of ruddy faced farmers love it.

I don't think people actually know what a forum is. Most people like an argument on here, but they're supposed to be for debates, each person having their own opinions. This covid section needs to be removed, people don't half get arsey about it.
