I'm generally reluctant to get into a 'discussion' about vaccine safety, but I accidentally did last week, with someone I would generally have regarded as reasonably sensible.

He revealed that he was not availing of the AZ that he had been offered, but was waiting for the Janssen.

I asked why and was told that "We just don't know enough about the side effects"

I asked what side effects he thought might happen.

"There could be anything - there could be birth defects ten years down the line"

He's 69 years old.

He is looking after his (double-jabbed) 98-year-old mother two days a week.

At some point it may become obvious, to even the most avid conspiracy consumer, that this horseshit is part of an ongoing disinformation warfare campaign directed against social democracy.

It had better do, or we are fubar -ed

George Bramwell said that there are :

Simple liars, damned liars, and experts

Known known risks are the risks we know about and we also know how big they are.

Pure risk, also called absolute risk, is a category of threat that is beyond human control and has only one possible outcome if it occurs: loss

Albert Lamorisse directed the film Red Balloon

He also invented Risk
Is this supposed to mean something?

If so, can we have a flow chart?

Does anyone know.... Is there a test you can take that would tell you if you have had covid at a previous time, without knowing it?

I don't think so as you'll have antibodies from the vaccine. I was thinking that myself when you listed your symptoms earlier...
Lots of people have mentioned it, but I don't think I would have had such a bad reaction to the jab if I'd had the actual virus.
