Well I would think that you could reduce the number eligible by a large number due to age, i.e. too young, then those who would not want it by virtue of fear or stubbornness, then those who can't get to it, then the number that remain will take about, er,, 2 years.
One should bear in mind that after one year those that have received it will then be due their annual shot. |

Re the above mentioned quote from post 60, is this the case with all tests? Anyone been tested and knows what their test confirmed regards this point? I'm not sure that a test which ignores a past infection provides the best means of achieving the stated aim of the study.

Was watching breakfast TV this morning and the overall impression from those public being interviewed is that with a vaccine things will be back to normal next year.
But, reading a report from the ONS (Office of National Statistics) they estimate that only half the population will be vaccinated by the end of 2021, so normality is still a very long way off. |

Immunity is still uncertain. Some say may only last 3 months . . . for some unfortunates. (Probably me).

I signed up to the Oxford University study on Covid-19. The medical staff come to me and do a doorstop test. They ask a series of questions like do you think you have had the virus or have you any of the symptoms.
They started off coming once a week for 5 weeks, then it drops to a monthly visit. They generally give me at least 24hours warning. If you do not want to continue then that’s fine. Well, I have had my 5 weekly visits and now I’m on my monthly visits. The medical staff DO NOT ENTER YOUR PREMISES, it’s all done on the door stop. Swab to the back of the mouth, which is a tad unpleasant, then the same swab is pushed up each nostril. It is then transferred to a phial with a screw cap. I have had 6 negative results so far. And the icing on the cake is I get paid for it. £25 voucher is emailed through to me and I can spend it where I like. There is a drop down menu to choose which shop I wish to spend the voucher with. As, and when, the vaccine is available I will be having it.

I still have a strong antibody presence over 6 months after having C-19 with no sign of it diminishing...

Over the last few months I've been saying the same thing in a variety of threads. The figures speak for themselves. The government seems to be trying to appease the population to avoid too much dissent. However a bit of common sense will tell you a different story. Time, of course, will tell. Masks are a poor defence.--The only thing that will slow down the spread of the virus is keeping a sensible distance between yourself and other folk.-- |
