Just a thought…could the firms who produce the vaccine join up with the firms who produce the epi pens and diabetic pens, and produce a one dose pen which people, who are willing and able can use at home , to administer the Covid vaccine…cut down queues, free up NHS staff and free up doctors surgeries…just a thought but I’m no medical person, so please enlighten.

there was this distinct ‘burned plastic buttery sweetish’ smell to it

Thanks for your feed-back, it’s interesting. I’ve suspected since quite some time that I got it as an asymptomatic. I was in close contact with several people who got it, but didn’t develop any symptom, apart from a very slight, peculiar smell I can sense from time to time, and I always ask myself where that might come from.

It’s something in-between your description, which comes quite close to it to be fair, and smelling a dead corpse from far away. Quite nauseating, but very, very slight in my case.

issue would be storage conditions - in order to ensure effectiveness, from storage to injection, the cold chain has to be monitored well so leaving it to individuals might have varying results.

Please inform us if you notice strange things happening. Like if you get antennas growing, or if your skin becomes green, eh? It could be interesting to know for us mere mortals.

Only if your new master allows it, of course.

Continuing on what I mentioned earlier on China’s vaccine diplomacy, they have just pledged a donation of 500K vaccines to Philippines. And Philippines, who is in a major dispute in China over the South China Sea territories, would gladly accept and despite the lack of transparency, what can they do? That is why I mentioned, unfortunately, in some countries, life is cheap.

Little refrigerated vans…my brother-in-law is furloughed at the moment, and he drives these refrigerated vans…and he’s trained to carry pharmaceuticals.

So far, my broadband has stabilised and the neighbour’s dog has been whimpering every time I got within 4’ of the garden fence.
It’s all part of the great reset

Yep, the infamous Spratley Islands, currently part of several other Asian countries who are very angry with China over this. There is a lot of oil in the South China Sea, my late husband worked for Shell in that area, and there was a massive outrage when China begane ‘growing’ the islands and then claiming them.

I wonder if they care to be / or have been as generous to Malaysia, Brunei, Vietnam, Taiwan etc?

Be deserved if the world advanced so much that we never have any use for oil in the future - I can dream.

[gasband]

Maybe in more developed countries with better infrastructure, that can eventually be done but in poorer countries, it would take alot of effort to develop them in a short time.

[Wilkored08]

Yep true…but I was thinking of UK at the moment.

[redfanman]

The Philippine president has been close to the Chinese government from early on in his reign there so I am not surprised to see a deal being done for vaccines.

If it helps them build their influence in the area then I am sure they would happily donate as much vaccine as they need to.

[redfanman]

I would think there isn’t the supply for that at the moment. Doing it the way you have suggested would also open up the possibility of them being traded and not going to those who should do first.

Its a good idea though and if the vaccine can be used over a long period of time (if the virus changes less than the seasonal flu) then it may become a longer term option if vaccines have to be taken regularly for life.

Right, myself, mother and father had it, from their business partner, who contracted it at the gym in the first wave, early March. He had it full on in the lungs and couldnt breathe, was nearly admitted to hospital. For a further 3-4 months he couldnt walk his dog or get up the stairs for being out of breath.

Dad was knocked out with it, I mean sleeping all the time and feeling off.

Mum and I had it in the nasal cavity. We could neither taste or smell anything properly, and I kid you not, there was this distinct ‘burned plastic buttery sweetish’ smell to it - I dont know if that was damage to the sense of smell, but Mum reported a similar smell. That has gradually gone (taken 9 months but is still around), but there has always been a fading note of it. Id say smell and taste is 90% recovered in me, but now and again this faint smell comes back. Its like nothing I have ever smelled before; its quite disgusting.

To be quite honest it has made me conclude it is nothing like any other virus; I actually (no surprise here) think it was a mistaken leak of a bio-weapon. Not intentional, but still, an unnatural virus that was grown on a petri dish and has got out somehow.

Additionally to support this, a natural virus has a broadly same normal distribution curve from infection to overcoming it. This didnt have that at all, some days you were fine and then others really fatigued with an inexplicable insomnia; very stubbornly blocked sinus etc. There, thats all I know and feel. No surprise then there actually is a bio-weapons facility in Wuhan China.

If I were the head of that bio-weapons plant, and my staff created a weaponised virus that kills less than 1%, and only mild flu symptoms in the vast majority, I’d be pretty pissed off at them.

Really? That’s exactly the sort of virus you want them to create, its about the disruption, look at the chaos this shit has created.
