Default Re: Please stay safe

I'm in the shielding group..well.. depending on what meds im on each week i pop in and out of it lol But I'm on immuno drugs and just started a new one.

My 84yr old Grandma got her vaccine today... and walked down a hill, in 7" snow, without her walking stick to get it... ill let you use your imagination as to how that phone call went!

I'm in group 4 for the vaccine and sadly, despite my mum having covid and a blood clot bad in the first lockdown, much of my family aren't wanting to have it. I have tried to provide them with non biased, peer reviewed information but sadly they refuse to even read it.

I have read there may be issues with people on immuno drugs with the vaccine not being AS effective, but my logic is SOME vaccine is better than NO vaccine.

Im used to being a medical guinea pig and to be honest I'm past caring. So when I get the invite, I'm attending with party hats and balloons and cakes!
