I have several friends in other parts of the UK (London and Norfolk) who are 65-70 who have had their first Covid vaccination or will have in the next few days (they are not in any other priority group). Does anyone know when that age group will start being vaccinated in Lewes? I dont want to bother my GP but there is nothing about this on the Foundry Healthcare website.

Having formally become vulnerable on Wednesday (with a COVID secure get-together), Foundry 'phoned me the same day to offer me a vaccine. That suggests they must be very close to 65-69s.
They could not give me an order within group though; neither date of birth nor name. So working out exactly when ...
Now I must explore my 6am browsing at Waitrose (or perhaps not).

Call me pedantic but what is being offered is not a vaccination as we understand it but a gene therapy. It is not the introduction of a weakened version of the disease to warn our immune system and prepare it for attack by it. It is an experimental attempt to modify it genetically to do the job. No vaccination has ever been found to be successful against Corona viruses such as the common cold before.

The "common cold" isn't particularly deadly, and we certainly don't have to lockdown the globe for it, and there are reasonably successful jabs that manage and reduce the more severe symptoms of flu.
I wouldn't call you pedantic. I'd just call you strange and attention seeking.

Well TP, for once I more or less agree with you. I agree with your definition of "vaccination" as now current usage. I used to be ultra-pedantic, only allowing "vaccination" for smallpox! It was a bit rich of Boris to suggest that current successes were founded on the proud GB heritage of Jenner.
But for us to have a vaccination for the common cold, there would have to be a weakened version of that virus (smallpox/cowpox style). Is there one?

As far as I can gather, no isolated specimen of this novel Corona virus exists. Various freedom of information requests throughout the world have been made for this information without result.
You might find me strange greenie, but I do not seek attention, quite the reverse and least of all, yours.

You can't resist replying to me and getting your "last word" on the matter. Which tends to drift back to the globalist elites. I can understand it all feels true to you, in your mind and in your reasoning....but try to understand how your posts come across. But don't worry, you're far from unique - there are plenty of anonymous edgelord bozos trying to prove the sky is falling down....or erm forever crying "wolf!", whichever fits best.
On the other hand, this forum would probably be dead without you!

In that you think a global elite is behind the panic over the virus then green is fully justified in his accusation Tom.

Not so.Where do I say that in this thread Nev? Tell me, because I can't see it. I know greenie mentions it in his every post. What possible relevance has it to the subject at hand other than being a red herring to distract attention from my statement which obviously bothers him, as well it should and anyone else with a questioning mind, for that matter.

Ho ho, yes. It means you are a fat parasite leeching off the public and want to extend the reach of your blood sucking proboscis over the entire world, making sure that everyone is enslaved by your own negotiable debt instruments.
That's why the entire globe is paralysed by a virus of which no one has an isolated sample. Get it?

Interesting thoughts there TP. Do you ever discuss these things with people in the real world, as in face to face? What is the typical reaction? Or are you more self-aware outside of internet forums and more coy?

I mix with people at all sorts when I'm allowed and somewhat less when under curfew. I take them as I find them and speak appropriately. Snidey, insinuating and self righteous types I tend to avoid. I get the impression that you are not as insolent and insulting in the world as you are on this forum and have far greater need of circumspection and coyness than I.

I'm only seemingly insolent and insulting towards people like you, who are few and far between anyway, mercifully. These "truth-tellers/seekers" are generally awkward wimps who I have no issue with ridiculing to their face. I'm a hippie stoner though, so it wouldn't be as mean-spirited as you perceive on here. I just calmly and collectively debunk silly myths.

The fact that something has not been isolated does not mean that it does not exist. Lawrencium comes to mind, generated in such a way that it is completely mixed up with other trans-Uranic elements.

Oh dear greeny, I think your memory is fading. Your vituperative ,knee jerk reaction to any comment not in line with your simplistic, utopian progressivism litter this forum. Your habit of lumping people into limited categories suggests to me that you need to get out of your head! The Ganga is only driving you deeper into your own delusion of descriptions.
Idm- if we equate transuranic elements with corona viruses we will be on the right track. If we can't isolate lawrencium we can't deal with it as a separate entity. If we can't isolate covid 19 from Corona viruses then we can't isolate a cure for that particular virus and a test for its presence. Thus a test can only reveal the presence of a Corona virus which may or may not be Covid 19. Yes?

Sorry, but I am too busy to keep up with all of this. What does "Edgelord Bozo" mean? On the viruses - you have a pile of mixed viruses, and they aren't causing COVID. Then purportedly the same mixture starts producing COVID; so a new virus has arrived and you know that without isolating it. Yes?

Yes, the NEW pile is causing the Covid. The new virus could have come from a mutation of what was already there. But you can still tell it's something new, without isolating it.

Oh no, all pubs closed, all discos closed, all dance halls closed. But there are still vaccination centres! While I was in the recovery tent a guitar and clarinet arrived; you can guess what happened next. I hope I alleviated some boredom - I was widely filmed. There is a short clip on Lewes Present.

I was given a second jab appointment on 14 Nov. I turned up at the centre (Riverlodge) to find it deserted. After bashing on the door I was given a (successful) appointment on the Sunday.
A friend was given an appointment for yesterday. Again, deserted. He bashed on the door to no avail. And we are told off for poor take up!
