I worry not about Covid but my money won't last as I intend to see 3 WLs in a day to make up lost time.

I'm all for vaccination but this is a bit too farfetched for me. Think about it, how could they prove that a person who has been vaccinated would get better protection than if he wasn't vaccinated and then got infected? The same person who is vaccinated cannot then be unvaccinated again to prove this point.

Probably the only thing that they can prove beyond a doubt is that antibodies created by being actually infected with COVID (and surviving it of course!) are better than antibodies created from vaccination.

Resume life as normal.
I have had two vax shots and I will take my chances.
Your chances of catching the virus are much smaller than not catching it.
Worldwide the percentage of people infected is just a small proportion of the population (around 2.5% - or in other words 97.5% of the worlds population has avoided covid), and those that die is a tiny proportion (around .05% - or in other words 99.95% of the worlds population has not died of covid.
And the vast majority of those that died were very old and/or very sick.
If you are under 60yo and healthy it’s more like a 99.99% certainty you will not die of covid.
Put it this way, if you got the results of a biopsy and your GP it told you it's a 99.95% certainty you will not die of cancer you would be ecstatic and go out and celebrate with champagne and dinner and a fuck!
Well that's the covid diagnosis for us all. It's a 99.95% to 99.99% certainty you will not die of covid, so why hide under the bed in fear? As soon as the lockdown ends, go out and for a champagne dinner and a fuck!
Vaccination will make those already tiny chances of dying or getting really sick even tinier.
Even if I get the virus it will be like getting a cold or at worst a flu and that has never stopped me from living life to the fullest before.
Living life in a cotton wool cocoon is no way to live.
Enjoy!

Rooter is talking sense, the couple of guys on here carrying on about evidence long covid ect are the facebook soldiers. Take a look at colledge football on espn, americans are getting on with it. So should we, yes there will be set backs, but it will be for the unvaccinated. We will unfortunately have restrictions because of them but hopefully its so they can catch up. Im ok with that but if there is no effort to catch up, eventually the unvaccinated will be on their own. Problem is they clog up hospitals and people with breast cancer, prostrate cancer, brain cancer, sepsis, mental illness, heart disease and many other illness are taking a backseat because of these self centred misinformed lunatics.

Spot on, mate. One of those "couple of guys" oscillates wildly, one moment he's on about COVID being just like a common cold and it's all about the Gov trying to "steal our assets" (hence no need to vaccinate), the next moment he's spouting Lancet articles about the dangers of Long COVID along with his own commentary that being vaccinated may not prevent it from happening (oh btw, hence no need to vaccinate)!

I can't believe how far people will go just to avoid a tiny pin prick of a needle.

Yes I know friend trying to avoid the vaccine saying AZ is blood clot, Pfizer is not that effective against delta and now say waiting for Modena. I bet he will say next I want Chinese or Russian vaccine. We see about freedom next month.

The only guys worrying about catching Covid and worried about the vaccine are the ones who get their daily news from Fuckbook - which is half of those affected LGAs

Probably the only thing that they can prove beyond a doubt is that antibodies created by being actually infected with COVID (and surviving it of course!) are better than antibodies created from vaccination.

The way I understand is that the vaccine only target a very specific part of the virus (the spike protein) so the antibodies introduced by the vaccine is very specific, that's why the it is less effective against the new variants as they don't like the same anymore. The antibodies produced via a natural infection is more all rounded, the immune system would recognise other parts of the virus and have different attack vectors if you recovered from it.

So the idea from some scientists from UK is that GET VACCINATED so you have a form of protection but let natural runs its cause and if by any case you get infected (by whatever variants), you are likely that you will be protected by the vaccine and but your immune system would be given a chance to taste what the real virus is like and produced other antibodies which would target other parts of the virus, so effectively it is like a booster shot but in a natural way.

the key here is still get vaccinated thou

Pretty funny how a certain amount people choose to not be vaccined but dont mind taking drugs made from god knows what in someones backyard. Plus the vaccine is made in a proper lab with testing and controlled

Exactly this, they should not take any medicine ranging from over the counter to prescription medication. they should just grow their own natural 'meds' in their backyard!

these are the same people who think you can get controlled by 5g using the nanites in the vaccine. absolute idiots

Because there are no Facebook groups dedicated to telling people not to take backyard meds.

Same.... speaking to the few girls i know, they are all getting vaxxed

The girls are not stupid. They will look after their health and their livelihood.
Almost all of them will get vaxed.
They know the reality is that if they are not vaxed they will not be able to work in the mainstream industry.
They will have to quit or operate in the dodgy fringes with all the risks that that involves.

Most of the girls vacced up day 1, they are very aware of their risk,with some scooting out regional as soon as it happened. As is they are waiting for the all clear, - remember that they are [predominantly from places with strict governments and institutionalised thoughts.. if the govt say so, then they just do

A lot of the girls are scared shitless from what their relatives back home are telling them. They don't have access to the high quality vaccines we do, just the Chinese and Russian stuff. Health systems collapsed, thousands dying every day, old people too afraid to leave their homes...

We offer everyone access to these high quality vaccines for FREE, even if they're not citizens/not on Medicare. Which is amazingly great, I fully support it, and I'm sure the girls know it too. Why wouldn't they take the opportunity? It's a no-brainer.

We forget how lucky we are sometimes.

To answer OP's questions, no. I'm not scared returning to punting.

The only thing I am worried about is if the price goes stupid. Shopped around over the weekend for a BBBJ with CIM and was quoted $400 and $450. Finally booked one for $250

Agreed.... price is the main factor I will be concerned with. However will not be surprised if there is a spike
