Interestingly, my GP mentioned just last week that all the vaccines now look like they'll need a booster at about 12 to 18 months after the first doses. When I asked him what happens if availability changes, because no doubt it will, he said it doesn't matter it can be whatever is available. He says the official position of no cross vaccination will eventually change because it's politically driven not health and science driven.
But you may recall, I mentioned my GP volunteers in Emergency Medicine at some big regional hospitals and has worked first hand in COVID ICU, without graphically stating it he thinks the non-vaccination alternative is unspeakable.
I did something similar with my doc. I explained to him that within an hour of my first AZ jab, I could feel the effects, especially in tender areas of my carcass, areas of mild arthritis. He explained that wasn't the vaccine directly but my immune system responding/kicking into action - a normal, healthy response.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17
