    are they effective as soon as we have one, or after the second one, or is it a question of wait and see,,,,,!

    You get the first vaccine and you’re partly covered. You get a booster after 21 days and 10 days after that you have enough antibodies to make you safe. You’re advised not to go mad after that, because you can still be a carrier.
    The real effect is when enough people have it and infections drop. We’re still only at the beginning. Should look better by Easter and a lot better by June.

    Suppose we won’t really know if it is effective. But should you unfortunately catch covid after getting the jag then you can be certain it was not effective.
    So get it and keep your fingers crossed.

    That’s not true Ian. You can still catch Covid after getting the jab and you can likely still test positive, it’s just that you’ll have antibodies to fight it off, hopefully before you get symptoms and very likely before you get serious symptoms.

    Well I can’t wait to get it. Hopefully it will do the trick for everyone and let us all get back to some sort of normality

    From listening today also sounds like even though the one jab of the Oxford vaccine has a lower % protection rate from the trial it seems that it has a high percentage of protection from serious symptoms.
    Given how much easier it should be to distribute this is very good news. Now it's down to this shambles of a government to organise it.

    Do
    Don’t worry. Nadhim Zahawi is the minister responsible for its distribution. Second only to Failing Grayling in terms of uselessness.

    A Conservative MP has spent more than £25m buying a six-storey central London house and a string of commercial properties over the past three years, earning him hundreds of thousands of pounds a year in rental income on top of his parliamentary salary.
    Nadhim Zahawi, who is also a director of an oil company operating in Kurdistan, spent £10m on the commercial sites in the 18 months to December, adding to a family portfolio that includes a stucco property in one of the most exclusive streets in Belgravia, central London.
    Mr Zahawi is one of Parliament's richest MPs with millions of pounds of property interests.
    He earned £241,000 a year in his second job as an oil executive before becoming a minister. The job at Gulf Keystone Petroleum also paid him a £253,200 bonus with no additional hours in 2017.

    A millionaire Tory minister has claimed holiday activities are "more important" than getting food for the poorest kids.
    Oil tycoon Nadhim Zahawi made the eyebrow-raising claim after Boris Johnson refused to extend £15-a-week free school meal vouchers for poor families in the school holidays.
    Last week he said poor parents "actually prefer" to pay a "modest sum" for their kids' meals rather than have them for free.

    Out of touch just doesn't do it, and now this clown, from a circus of clowns, has been given responsibility of getting the vaccine to those most in need
