Is everyone getting boosters?

Are we all meant to have the one?

If so are people here keen to have one?

I wonder if there will ever be exemptions from further vaccination for people who had significant (but not life threatening) side effects from first doses? I still have side effects from the first dose 7 months ago but I didn't end up in hospital so imagine I'll be expected to just keep taking boosters and put up with being dizzy forever more Sad
Same here. I've been called for a booster but I really really don't want it as I still have issues from the initial jabs.

I'm also in an occupation group they may mandate vaccines for in which case I'll probably end up having to have it - or not work - both options depress me hugely.

The have done a great job of trying to make out he's crazy except if you listen to him it's very clear that nothing could be further from the truth. Obviously they have to discredit him as he's calling them out on all the governments lies. And he has more knowledge and expertise than most and can easily see through the lies.
Also funny how everything he's predicted is coming true...?? Vaccine passports were always the goal and its now blatantly obvious when they are trying to mandate a vaccine which is a. Dangerous and b. Ineffective and also to age groups that the vaccine is more of a danger than the virus is! I could go on but there is little point explaining everything to those who choose not to see.
There is plenty of information out there but it's not what you're being fed on msm.

“They”. Who is this mysterious “they”? The local GPs? Most A&E doctors? High street pharmacists? Do you think “they” get together as part of a big cartel of baddies who want to take over the world, including every researcher who has worked on vaccines, every healthcare worker who has administered it, along with Bill Gates, Dr Fauci and Boris Johnson, plus all other world leaders? Govts are largely incompetent bodies. Do you really believe they’ve got the competence to plan some ‘great reset’? It’s all a bit Austin Powers & Dr Evil. “They” want to cull us & control us? Kill half of us off? Then what? What’s the point? And for your info, people who don’t share your beliefs don’t sit watching TV news all day without questioning things. Lots of people have just come to different conclusions than you. And if if you hear yourself using the phrases ‘cognitive dissonance…sheep…turn off your TV’ or think you’re a ‘critical thinker…done your own research…awake’ it’s prob time to take a step back and see just how much you’re parroting the same repetitive things YOU’VE been fed in the echo chambers online.

I'm not rushing into it, it's not due until mid December so I may have it in the New Year, don't really want it just before Christmas as I felt quite ill after my first vaccination

Fairylights25 · 15/11/2021 21:55

Yes as soon as I am offered one. I caught Covid and it was really grim, really don’t want to catch it again - ever again

Me too. I really don’t want a booster, especially if it’s effectiveness also wears off after six months. I’d risk the side effects getting worse again if I knew a booster would protect me for years but if it’s only six months with three to four months of significant side effects then no thanks. So worried that three jabs is soon going to be fully vaccinated rather than two.

@JS87, I doubt it will be anytime in the immediate future that that it would be needed for vaccine passports for general domestic things so unless you are going on holiday overseas or have a large event planned I would just leave it for now, as it is a booster they will be doing these for ages so you would be able to still have one in several months time, it not like if you don't have one at 6 months you will miss your slot, people are still being encouraged to have their first jabs. I don't know when yours was due anyway but I would just keep a general eye on the situation with boosters and see how it is all panning out.

@MintyCedric If you're still reading have you been called up for your booster yet? I had mine today. Hope yours is sorted 👍🏻
