Yes I think you are very lucky. If yu go on to the Corona thread, you'll see poster after poster telling us what a Khazi the country has become and how it is being run into the ground by those in charge Come onto this thread though and the country is rosy and doing much better now than they would be in the EU and the politicians have basically sorted everything out how the people wanted it to be sorted. Not surprisingly, on our tv the past couple of weeks, all we get is the 'Khazi' stories of ambulances lined up outside hospitals and truckers having endless problems and angry fishermen.....

But it wasn't just the EU. Each individual country still made their own decisions, and it seemed some weren't exactly chomping at the bit to give anyone the jab. Think some took a week or so longer than others to even start, some are starting with the elderly, some with health care workers etc.....and if you look elsewhere Australia aren't even going to start until next month ?

Luckily enough, since the start of the first lockdown, we have been saved from any of that nonsense. Tbh we haven't really had the long queues at the supermarkets also, because they really aren't as strict as they were last Spring. They did start for a few days, but then it gets less and less.....the only long queues I see are at the Post Office of bakers, early in the morning...

It was a solidarity thing, and as you can see being in the EU has helped countries that aren't, as well as their own members. The system is there to protect the population. As you can see in other countries like India, they have started vaccinating with something that hasn't even gone through the safety process to the end. Think Russia did as well.... We not only have a couple of vaccine's now, but our shelves are full of foodstuff, beer and wine still costing the same as it did last year

Not sure it made much difference. I thought I read that Sweden, who are in the EU agreed to give some of their supply to Norway and one or two other countries, who aren't in the EU, as they couldn't agree much of a supply..... https://www.reuters.com/article/health-coronavirus-norway/norway-to-provide-covid-19-vaccine-free-of-charge-to-norwegians-idUSL8N2H42YA

It isn't though. We have been through it before. There was an agreement to do it together. If the UK was still in the EU they didn't have to agree, they could have still done their own thing. As it is one or two who did agree, still done their own thing as well......

Or maybe the Russian one was cheaper or easier to use ?

Did they ? I read that Hungary were rolling out the Russian Sputnik vaccine before the rest

You are using a UK standard on another country. We had this months ago with BWitcher Just saying !!!

Well the one old woman who died an hour after the vaccine has had her case investigated and there was no link to be found. Of course there will be those who won’t believe it, no matter how thorough the investigation was

You are I guess, at least when Blu forgets to log out

One Doc at least has been investigated here for handing out mask exemption documents like candy Saw something yesterday stating during WW2 nobody tried to say they were exempt from wearing a gas mask.....

The company said its production upgrades would also have a "short-term impact" on the delivery of vaccines to the UK.

You want to be careful. I saw a report that the vaccine can have a negative effect on male performance. But seeing as Pfizer also make Viagra they are in a win, win situation
