Her second jab would have been the 12th July, for which she would need to travel back to the U.K. In view of what little time she had left to sort things out following her quarantine period she elected to leave her jab and hope that the Spanish rollout would eventually catch up.She has now just been given the date for her first jab here for Friday the 28th May, her second to follow on 18th June. So ultimately, she’ll be fully vaccinated over three weeks earlier.Very good point after a really poor start Spain is now vaccinating at pace and rapidly catching up in some places they have moved into 40 to 50 bracket . Not sure that 3 week gap is right though all the science is suggesting 8 to 12 weeks offers best protection

PwesterYour are taking the P if you think anyone would now trust the BBC. Their reporter forging documents and the subsequent management coverup as reported by Lord Dyson together with the alleged victimisation of whistle-blowers. A lot of leftie rubbish at best. Derek
Good point pewster the report I was reading was from an independent American university who have done a lot of deep research on it . Their outcome was for long term protection 8 -12 weeks was best . But for quickest protection 4 - 6 weeks was best . They also concluded that a winter booster is probably needed for everyone this year dropping down to only over 60s next year.The most interesting part was that there is minimal difference in protection in both the Pfizer and AZ jabs both in effectiveness, whether you can pass it in still or most importantly any side effects including blood clotting , something often thrown at the AZ jab but the reality is it’s no worse than Pfizer or Moderna

DerekThe issue is I believe is the constant gaslighting by our leader and the other dimwits that currently run the country, a total lack of clarity with every announcement shrouded in ambiguity and vagueness, into this vacuum we all pile trying to knit the fog of nonsense that has been created. The question is though is the fog deliberate or just incompetence.
. Also just noticed - a belated Happy Birthday Pewster.
