A Fourth Vaccine

[Bazile]

Will you be having a fourth , if offered ?

[ichkeria]

I don’t believe there’s an option to donate it to someone else so

“Yes”
Of course

[hellywelly4]

Yes. Seems sensible to me.

[Lie-in King]

Yes, I'll have a 4th jab if offered.

[naomi24]

Yes, I think I would. I feel that the jabs have probably kept me Covid-free - although I might have just been lucky to avoid it.

[Bazile]

What would be the criteria for offering a fourth jab ?

Would it be because evidence shows that the third jab loses its effectiveness after a period of time .

Or a new variant that is more serious and causing more serious illnesses ?

[ToraToraTora]

Yes if that is what is recommended.

[Mamyalynne]

The fourth jab is at the moment aimed at those who are immunocompromised.

Were it rolled out to the wider population then I would have it.

[Khandro]

I refused the third, so no way a fourth.

[dannyk13]

Certainly would.

I've been double-jabbed. My sister has too, plus booster (underlying health) and we both still got it recently. We are being very careful.

But, we know being vaccinated won't help our clients on a daily basis- we just need to know we are negative. Then, nobody can pass it on. It isn't hypothetical and statistics for us, it's real lives.

[bednobs]

mamya's reason is the reason ive will be offered it. Has to be three months at least after the booster

[pastafreak]

Quite possibly...age and living in a relatively built up area, plus being reliant on public transport are considerations.

[Hopkirk]

If offered, I would take it asap. It might save my life, and protect my elderly mother.

[owllady]

Yes I had mine on Sunday as I am immunocompromised and I feel fine

[William51]

Yes. Why not?. The whole process of queuing and getting the vaccine and waiting after it only takes about 45 minutes. A short time to endure.
