It's good to hear that members of CT are receiving their vaccinations, good luck to all those yet to have theirs. It seems like a long haul till we get everyone sorted and hear the results of the present vaccines.

I'm leaving this open for non political comments as per the guidelines. Hope you can add your own experiences and thoughts.

My first jab comes up tomorrow, I'm so glad we have research institutions that have got us this far! And I am planning breaks away in the hope of improvements on the horizon.

I don't think it matters what nationality the nurses/carers are, JV, as we surely don't want to go down the unpleasant race road. It's the fact that folk who are caring for others are rejecting the vax that is the relevant issue and is both concerning and puzzling.

And as being made so public by those who are at the coal face of this pandemic, does not compute, as to what it seems is a problem controlling it?

It’s up to the scientists/Govt to engage with all communities if there are weak points of vax uptake.

My daughter works in the NHS alongside nurses who are hesitant to accept the vaccination. Try to understand that

But you have said in previous posts that you yourself cannot understand why they are not taking the vaccine and that they should or not be allowed to work in such settings?

(was it you? - if not apologies)

I do not think it is for lack of trying

You don’t know that, there are many multi generational families that are all in a bubble & they struggle to trust anything they don’t understand. It can be changed with the will. Neither you nor I have suffered to the extent that they have JV, they need help & assistance not negative vitriol.

Negative? and what has been advised on news programmes and other media outlets (not the terrible social media vitriol) to try to encourage some areas of the population to increase the takeup, ,even a very major campaign. by very public members of the BAME community
