  1.  @dronespace  Covid is a serious disease and the Vaccine has been developed to stop it. That's it. People with cancer are going to die when they should not and that is a tragedy, my heart goes out to them.

  2.  @adpmac3981  Yes stop it, the pandemic. We are in a pandemic. Do you dispute that as well?

  3.  @martynjukes482  Nope, I'm in Costa coffee having a brew, day off pub later. Jabbed plus Covid last month. I'm in good shape. What's to fear. When you shift your argument from the issue to me personally that tells me something about your argument.

  4.  @leefair9598  A lot of people will die yet unfortunately yes.

  5.  @martynjukes482  Natural immunity? Yes it works, just that one draw back of death.

  6.  @martynjukes482  1%? Yeah could be now, could be 2%. What is your point? That 1% is ok to let go? Write them off? What's 1% of 7.8 billion?

  7.  @martynjukes482  99% recovery? Who told you that? The Lancet? One thing I find strange is that some Science seems ok and is acceptable and other science is not. When you pick and choose your data like this you end up with a skewed view of what is really going on.

  8.  @martynjukes482  No. Now I'm a technologist. I use the science I don't make it. If you do not trust me that's fine, just address my points instead.

  9.  @martynjukes482  In terms of research? No it does work like that. The conclusions are not 100%, Science does not work like that. What you get is consensus. The consensus is that COVID 19 is a dangerous lethal virus. The vaccines developed work. The evidence for both these statements is overwhelming so there is consensus. Omicron, based on early data appears to be less severe. Omicron transmits very readily so there will be and are many more cases. We are approaching 200,000 cases per day in the UK. This WILL lead to more hospital cases.

  10. It's Wednesday isn't it? I'll think about it then

  11.  @S1monVinyl  Eh? Do you understand immunology?

  12. It's not a cold

  13.  @martynjukes482  Not it really isn't. Over 300 people died yesterday. It's not a cold. Where did you study Science? Can I ask that?

  14.  @mattoneill9003  It's a Corona virus, specifically a SARS causing virus, a serious respiratory illness that can lead to death. As per SARS in 2002 and MERS in 2012. Next question.

  15.  @martynjukes482  Remember the nonsense about PCR? Cullis? Yeah like the anti vaxers have the first clue about Biochemistry or what PCR does, is.

  16.  @ryszard68  Are you in a position to critique a scientific paper? On epidemiology? Virology? Molecular biology? Do you have any clue regarding biological statistical modelling? What was your view on the Imperial paper?

  17.  @ryszard68  All you need to know is isolate, you don't have to be a scientist.

  18. Ha ha!!!

  19. Thats how vaccines work.

  20.  @martynjukes482  Seasonal flu, annual jab. Plus you obviously do not have kids, just check the Vaccine bulletin that has been in place for decades. Next question.

  21.  @asseyez-vous6492  Had my full course as a baby second round then boosters. Never had TB POLIOMYELITIS etc etc. Perhaps these Science guys know what they are talking about and the anti vaxers with zero Science qualifications or lab/medical experience.......don't!

  22. @Josh V You don't understand the science do you. Check out a NORMAL Vaccine bulletin for a baby. Guess what? It's not one jab. Also look up Clostridium tetani

  23. @Josh V Applied Biology degree so yes I get it

  24. @Josh V Do you/did you have a point?

  25.  @martynjukes482  I'm not a genius I studied hard. 1989 first job was Science officer in NMR. You can check me out on physics forums IF you are interested in real Science. I'm a technologist now NOT a Scientist.

  26.  @martynjukes482  They are claims? Ok, that's fine. I am interested in the published literature not claims.

  27. @Josh V 4 A levels too. Maths, Chemistry, Biology and Art with Art History. I'm 55 now, no reason to lie to you.

  28.  @martynjukes482  I have read some of the Yeadon stuff and don't get it. It would be interesting to get his view now the Vaccine has been proven to be effective.

  29. @Josh V Join me on Physics forums?

  30.  @martynjukes482  Just cite the study, Lancet BMJ Nature Journal of molecular biology/virology UKHSA PHE a respected journal. ' I saw this thing on Facebook' is NOT Science.

  31.  @martynjukes482  No not to see me, there are verified Scientists on there. You can ask questions.

  32.  @martynjukes482  Science worked out all of those things were bad. Science is just a method it's not a 'thing'. It improves, it's how you can have a conversation with me right now.

  33.  @martynjukes482  Yes. I'm 55, too old to lie. I'm not a genius I didn't go to Oxford. I worked hard. Join me on Physics forums? I'm a tech, working scientists on there.

  34.  @martynjukes482  If I am unqualified would my arguments be less open to enquiry? No. Exactly the same. I am qualified and I am a technologist. On PF you get the real deal. It's free! Just join and ask them.

  35.  @martynjukes482  I can't convince you that's fine. I could put a graduation picture on my channel?

  36.  @martynjukes482  I'm in the pub right now. I'm British.

  37.  @adpmac3981  I said 'in place' for decades. The science changes, the technology changes the recommendations changes as more information becomes available. HPV and COVID 19 now available for example. 70 years ago very little available. See also cancer, respiratory illness diabetes heart disease etc etc
