The Pfizer vaccine has to be stored at minus 70, but once a tray is defrosted, it can be stored in a normal vaccine fridge for 5 days. Both vaccines come in multidose vials. Once defrosted I can't see that there would be much difference. Yes AZ can go in left or right arms. Pfizer can only go in your right arm. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have been very unfair if people who had lost one arm had been prioritised over those who had lost the other by the scientists. I assume there would have been discrimination cases and everything. Massive relief that it doesn't make any difference which arm it goes into. Wonder what the side effects would be if you accidently injected into a thigh or an arse cheek? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Wright Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 8 hours ago, Annoymouse said: Except 111 aren’t doing that, I know of two people due to receive jabs this week who contacted 111 after being concerned they’ve possibly contracted the virus, they’ve had symptoms more commonly associated with the Kent strain (severe headache/muscle ache) and they’ve been told that not only do they not require testing but they’re fine to get their vaccine this week? They didn’t actually associate their symptoms with Covid until they heard Paul Moulton at the press briefing describing someone else testing positive with similar symptoms, they now wished they had lied about their symptoms in order to be certain they don’t have it. Having downloaded the consent form they feel that ‘fever like symptoms ’ is clearly open to interpretation, they feel a headache/muscle ache is what they most associate with fever, rather than just outright temperature. They’ll be telling however will listen at the vaccination hub, so it will be interesting to see what happens. Paul Moulton has no medical qualifications. They’ve been triaged by 111. What I’ve described is exactly what happens, and IoMG have form for wide interpretation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most areas will be low risk by then and we will all be allowed to mix.

Chef Raekwon Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 See that's more like what a 'Karen' actually is. A very specific type of middle class woman who thrives on "speaking to the manager". But on here people seem to use it as a term for describing the morons on facebook spreading false info and panicking about everything.

You would hope so, but knowing the track record I would say that is unlikely unfortunately Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
