There will be plenty of pub landlords who happen to know certain powerful people who will be buying new printers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna B Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Just had my Oxford Covid jab down at Sheffield Arena. Amazing organisation. VERY impressed by how efficient and smoothly it went. In and out in minutes. Marshals everywhere telling you where to go right from the car park onwards so easy to navigate. Everyone very pleasant, helpful and upbeat. I didn't have to wait the 15 minutes afterwards because I wasn't driving . Just have to wait now for the second jab in May. Thankyou to all the many people involved, you were great!

Thankyou to all the many people involved, you were great! My bold. Interesting. That's not what I thought the 15 minute wait was for - I understood it was to monitor for any adverse reaction, because it's a new vaccine. Everyone had to wait the 15 minutes at the hub I attended, and I would say most of them weren't driving immediately afterwards... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly as I understood it too - and AFAIK the reason given officially, although I'm not aware of a mass adverse reaction being reported. I had to wait the 15 minutes after mine at Jordanthorpe, which was good, as I'd just missed a bus and had 20 minutes to wait for the next. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lindylou53 Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 I think the 15mins wait is only after Pfizer vaccine as it's a new type of vaccine. I had Oxford jab and no wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had Oxford jab and no wait. I thought everyone had to wait for 15 minutes, and there were chairs laid out, some of which had people sitting on them, after their injection, so some are required to wait after Oxford jab. As I was asked if I was driving home I assumed that was the criteria they were using. I know when my Dad had his, everyone had to wait and it caused a terrific log jam. His injection procedure took well over an hour because of this. I assume they've reconsidered and found a way to speed it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petemcewan Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 (edited) Thirsty Relic, Spot on in your observations. I shall be following in your footsteps. As you say, "All "passports", "certificates", "apps"etc will do is fuel the criminal element as fakes are already available for the certificates that are used abroad, as well documented in the press. ". The Gov,Commercial interests ,Spivs and Crooks will all join hands and lead the merry enterprise of Cov-19 vaccination passports-and we will be expected to grin and bear it.

MuteWitness Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 With covid vaccinations where would it stop, medical insurance companies have wanted medical history to be shared for decades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petemcewan Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 (edited) Mutewitness Don't even think of becoming a Plumber without your vaccination certificate. Pimlico Plumbers (South London firm ) intends to insist that its employees are vaccinated before they are sent out on a job.Presumably the client will be able to insist on seeing the certificate before letting them in. And on we go into ,"No vaccination. No job". Note: I'm not an anti-vaxer. But I'm anti compulsory vaxer. And where am I coming from on this issue ? The answer is the following. I object to people being subjected to medical procedures without first having them consent. And if they don't consent ,subjecting them to discrimination.

Existing employees will be encouraged but not obligated to get jabbed. I think that I read somewhere that he doesn't have any refusers in his current team.
