    Yes they got the COVID vaccine for their children, that was sensible.

    I don't think the majority of parents chose to vaccinate their children for Covid. I might be wrong but I thought the uptake rate for Under 15s or maybe U12s was very low indeed.

    What are they doing in the Hyacinth House?

    The mind boggles. It took a degree to get you from a knuckle dragger anti measles/polio/smallpox to appreciate vaccines. My interest in vaccines was minimal pre-covid. Took my travel ones had all my childhood shots vaccinated my kids and still do. Made an educated choice on the Covid one after a lot of my own research which proved correct. Was not necessary for me. No one can still give me a definition of that ofter thrown out word here 'anti-vaxxer'. Anyone who was a blanket anti vaxxer pre Covid is on another level of intelligence (and thats not a compliment).

    I don't know about everyone, but I presume most posters get that a lot of people who are routinely vaccinated don't do it solely for themselves. It is typically of benefit to them but the benefit in the main is to the population as a whole.

    Going to to the pharmacy on Saturday, before the opticians appointment, to get a shot. Shame? No shame here.
