Re: Coronavirus
Quote:
Alert level has been reduced from three to two
Based on UKHSA advice, the UK Chief Medical Officers and NHS England National Medical Director have recommended to Ministers the COVID Alert Level moves from Level 3 to Level 2.
Hospitals and the wider health systems remain extremely busy overall but the summer BA.4 and BA.5 wave is subsiding and direct COVID severe illness is now a much smaller proportion of this. Severe COVID cases, direct COVID healthcare pressures, direct COVID deaths and ONS community positivity estimates have decreased. COVID remains present in the community and we may see an increase in cases with BA 4.6 and BA.2.75 circulating but do not expect this to lead to an immediate increase in hospital pressures. This will continue to be kept under review. Further COVID surges are likely so please be prepared by getting a vaccination when it is offered.

Make sure it’s the new one that can also deal with omicron.

There’s two (so far) - Moderna and Pfizer.

Re: Coronavirus
Just had my booster (and flu) jab - Pfizer bivalent this time, so I’ve got the Trifecta (first two were Astra Zeneca, and the previous booster was Moderna).

Re: Coronavirus
I had my 4th jab back in September, not sure why when I'm only 55. Maybe I'm on a list that the GP hasn't told me about. Also, Mrs G had hers at the same time and she's not 50 until late December

Re: Coronavirus
I won’t be having anymore jabs, now that they’re not required for travel.

Haha.
We actually agree on this although a slightly different rationale. I’m not having a vaccine that doesn’t work.

Meanwhile in the real world, vulnerable people are now getting the new bivalent vaccine, though the MRHA still considers the original vaccine to provide good protection.
