All over 50s could be vaccinated ahead of schedule, thanks to good supplies, say experts.
I think AZ have been shifting EU supply from internal production within the EU due to their issues with production. No point in it sitting on shelves bathing dust, AZ can send it our way.
All good. But never forget this bent gov could have and should have prevented 10's of thousands of deaths to the most vulnerable in our society. This is what will hang on this gov forever.

The EU is behaving inexplicably. Whatever their reasons, surely it means another three months of lost economic output. Glad they think they can afford it. Based on the election results in Germany and Macron's weak position, perhaps they should realise that they are standing in a burning building while fussing about which exit they use.
Full steam ahead the good ship UK.
I am an EU citizen of Poland and Danmark so I will wait for my inoculation as I obey my authorities. I always look up to Scandies. Embassy has sent me an email to wait.

OMG the UK have just halted the AZ rollout due to an number of unexplained broken toenails among the ballet dancing fraternity.????

We just can't have anyone dying from the effects of Covid, but it's perfectly fine to kill a few with a vaccine for it. If ever there was a case of warped thinking...
Great news. I had my 1st vaccination this morning. Very well organised from booking to going to the vac centre. Fantastic job all round. 2nd jab booked for June 1st

They won't. Half the world has declared them unsafe. You can reject the comment all you like because it doesn't fit narrative, but it remains true, anyone with half a brain is going to want some answers before letting you stick that rubbish in their veins.
The very fact that BBC have to try and push the pro-vax agenda tells you to ask more questions. Removed

7 countries pausing for 2 days out of 65 rolling it out is not really half the world rejecting.
Your comment deserves to be rejected because it is based on wild assumptions and paranoia.
Shameful comment. They haven't been declared 'unsafe' indeed WHO and every key scientist supports it. This is the EU playing politics or if not they are being far too careful with such a miniscule risk (even if it is the vaccine, which it isn't) v a very real risk of dying from Covid. That's the real world not the strange one you seem to live in.

That’s a pack of lies
All those sheeple who are booking holidays to EU hotspots without thinking things through may see this as a good thing,
However they will need to be prepared for Quarantine when they return if the Covid Rates don't drop dramatically across Europe, and at the moment they show no signs of a significant decline

We don't get to comment on what the EU is doing except as dribbling spectators.
If they suffer then as a third country we'll be further down the list of priorities - they will obviously focus on members welfare above us.
Our decline will also serve as an example of what happens if a country leaves - if what the Leave fanatics said was true about the EU being ruthless we're in even more trouble.

over 400k serious side effects which amounts to about 2%, thats more damage than is caused by the virus. Are you one of the governments agents, or just daft?

Given that the Oxford/AZ phase3 clinical trial is due to officially finish in Sept 2021, and normally the data collected from such trials are then analyzed for years afterwards before being able to be declared sfae for use or not, I will definately not be joining in this experiment. As a healthy 39yr old, I'd much rather take my chance with the real virus, as I have a 99.96% chance of survival!
Jab booked tomorrow, don't care which one I get. Let's crack on and let these fools kill more of their population while they deflect the blame for their mistakes.

Is this supposed to make us feel better about how we've destroyed our state and society in the vain effort to save 250,000 people 150,000 of whom have died anyway and inadvertently killed a further 2m by not giving them prompt medical treatment or unintentionally advancing their diabetes/obesity/liver disease by telling them to stay at home and inevitably ate and drank too much?

Covid19 CAUSES blood clots! Maybe all these people already had Covid19!!
Keep calm and carry on.
Keep calm and carry on.
UK is taking a very pragmatic approach to vaccination & not being distracted by dubious claims in relation to blood clots which are lower than would be expected in the non-vaccinated population and according to those that know there's no biological reason why the vaccine should cause them. The EU on the other hand are needlessly risking thousands of lives for what seems like political envy

Typical UK led disaster which mirrors the highest Covid death toll in Europe and 4th highest per capita on the planet, above even the US!
This cheap and cheerful Oxford vaccine is obviously sub-standard and dangerous, as proven by all the countries refusing to use it.

We certainly don't have the highest per capita death toll in Europe.
And guess what? Many more of your beloved EU nations are going to be overtaking us in the per capita death tolls over the next month, thanks to a 3rd wave where:
1. They had the B117 variant hit later than the Brits, and advance warning
2. Working vaccines have been available
...yet STILL they are on course to overtake us.

Tell that to the 2.6m dead who might have appreciated this vaccine sadly
more like smokescreens and mirrors coming from mainland Europe, with their own figures, but you continue to treat this like one upmanship, just like your inglorious masters Barmier, Junkyard and Tush??
You lemmings must be seriously out of your minds having this cheapo sub-standard Oxford vaccine. It's not just Europe that's refusing this UK led con. Wake up.

You’ll be saying the Kent variant was produced in a lab next.
If you really have a PhD, I am guessing it is not in a science!
Substandard? Have a look at the antibody response profiles. It actually gives a better response than Pfizer in a shorter time.
And don't think that putting "PHD" after your username fools anyone - especially when you base your reasoning on two anecdotal cases.

But I’ll let you be the test subject for that. Who knows what the long term effect are of altering a body’s messenger RNA actually is, this is the first time it’s been used in humans.

India is the biggest vaccine manufacturer in the world.
Out of the 100 million AZ doses the UK ordered 10 million doses are going to come from India, most are coming from the UK where production is 2 million doses a week.
The EU is auditing India production in the expectation of also receiving doses from India to make up shortfalls in EU production.

Great to hear we're getting doses from our friends in India. Maybe we could get some more from European countries who ignore the advice of the WHO other scientists and their own experts, and don't want to use the AZ-Oxford vaccine. Send the unused doses to the UK - we can save even more British lives!

What these countries are doing makes absolutely no sense in terms of risk management for their populations - I'm glad I don't live in any of them.
Boris has said all along that he would be pragmatic and bold. Whether you like it or not - the country got the leader it needed.

EU banning AZ smacks of spiteful political games. It will only serve to undermine confidence in the vaccine and ultimately cost lives. The incidence of blood clots is insignificant when compared to the millions vaccinated.
There is something very political about the EU country approach for the Astra Zeneca Jab. The normal occurrence of blood clots in the adult population is 120 persons per million per month. That means with 5 million vaccinations over February in the EU there should be 600 cases - actuality there were 31.
At the risk of sounding like Kevin Keegan, I would love it if Ireland decided to leave the EU and formed a trading relationship with the UK. It could bring so many positives. No offence to the EU - good luck to it and I hope it calms down a bit for the benefit of European citizens - but we have such strong links with Ireland.
Removed
Ireland would unify with Pakistan before doing what you suggest.
An interesting idea, but Ireland has probably bought into the EU mindset (‘how would you possibly survive on your own!’) and would be too scared.
Although, it could have advantages for Ireland, the US would be almost guaranteed to give them a good trade deal?
Ultimately it would be a political rather then pragmatic decision, so it’s unlikely to happen.

so it's Boris's fault for all the problems (the NHS procure the PPE which didn't go well) but when things go well it's the NHS that got it right. Remember the NHS is run by the Dept. for Health which is managed by Hancock and ultimately Boris so if he gets the criticism then he also deserves the praise.
While the rest of Europe tries to find a reason to explain their terrible vaccination strategy by halting AZ vaccinations, and now having that as an excuse. We continue to roll on. When you destroy the public confidence in a vaccination to win political points then don't be surprised if no one wants it. I have no doubts that if there is an issue the proper regulatory bodies would step in.

The UK/American/German/Swedish/Swiss/Indian AZ vaccine has not been been put on hold by the EU but some countries in it. Are Norway and Thailand in the EU? Much more of the vaccine is made outside the UK than in it. So what does all that make you? Go on, see if you can guess!
Someone I know had a blood clot in the back of the brain from this vaccine. He is now paralysed on his left side. These concerns should be taken seriously

"from this vaccine"????
I'm going to assume your not a doctor. Your post should read:-
Someone I know is paralysed on his left side, he had a blood clot in the back of his brain. I have no evidence that the vaccine caused any of this.
I'm sorry your friend has had a severe stroke, but the chances the vaccine caused it are, as yet, unproven.

Some people here on HYS are not interested in the possibility of a bad batch and caution. I's about slagging off the EU as they are racists. Hopefully they will get the vaccine soon.
It's scientifically proven that NOT having the vaccine will dramatically increase your chances of clots, blood clots are one of the bad symptoms of covid 19.
The truth is having the vaccine will dramatically increase your chances of avoiding medium and high risk symptoms, including blood clots.
We would have expected this many (or more) blood clots with any cross section of 25 million people.

Yes in this instance the EMA are saying it’s safe keep using it, but some countries have decided to ignore their own regulator and ban its use anyway.
They did this once with the over 65’s quasi effective nonsense and where proved wrong, think they will end up with egg on their faces again.

EU dont want AstraZeneca covid jabs due to Brexit huffiness ? Fine, more for the rest of the world.
Macron and Merkle tried to claim it was "quasi ineffective" in the over 65s, and now that further data from the UK confirms that the oxford vaccine is actually slightly better in preventing serious illness in the over 65s than the pfizer jab they had to come up with another smear campaign to deflect from the EU's shambolic vaccine rollout.
Got my invite this morning, happy days!
Quite some achievement to have vaccinated so many people in such a short space of time. I hear nothing but positive reports about how it's all being rolled out, without fuss or incident.
Well done to all concerned, and the UK government.

So EU say not enough data to say if ok to use on over 65's. Then say despite no data to back that it causes clots, but thats enough to stop using it. Its almost as if they need to find a reason to not use AZ to cover up some kind of shortcomings.... Seems many EU citizens can see through this now.

Let's hope that the incidence of autism in the population does not increase as a result of this unprecedented vaccine rollout. Autism is not funny, the risks of vaccines are clear.

Bt autism is not one of them. You still haven't rumbled the MMR fake news have you?
Please do not start this line of false arguement. Autism is indeed as terrible condition, I have worked with enough children with autism to know but the false link claimed for MMR caused enough childhood deaths and injury through measles without trying to do the same with covid.
Plenty of posters throwing up our mortality rate, but that could all change the way things are going at the moment. This is about Europe (& Scandinavia) not just the EU & they are on our doorstep. We all need to dismiss childish differences & work as one Europe. If things go badly belly-up on the mainland, we may have little choice but to become totally isolated.
Unlike in the EU where it seems crude politics is more important than the lives of EU citizens.
Someone asks why is the UK not reporting blood clot cases after vaccination
If you go down that route why not report heart attacks, migraines, liver failure, kidney failure or for that matter broken legs after vaccination ?
There is only merit in reporting if the incident rate of any of the above are statistically greater than normal. Otherwise the uninitiated are likely to misinterpret. Ahem

Good. ALL medicine and treatments have side effects. Few friends where able to book jabs and I'm very eager to get mine.
If the EU stop using whatever send them to the UK so we can increase jabs given even more. EU acting out of politics putting lives in danger as cases grow within the EU.

It makes sense to show caution with an Vaccine that uses cell editing tech that has never been used on the general population. The Pandemrix vaccine was rushed through and eventually pulled after high numbers of adverse reactions, notably Narcolepsy which continues to blight the lives of those effected.

Under no circumstances will I ever consent to the AZ vaccine. Once they went "off label" by altering vaccination intervals to 12 weeks, suggesting mixing brands etc, it all went pear shaped. Read Dr A K Arand's correspondence in BMJ on this and other issues.

Seriously considering putting my jab off until the rest of the world has properly assessed the blood clotting risks. Tend to trust the civilised world rather than Hancock and Co. Stayed safe this long, it seems silly to put myself at risk for the sake of a few more weeks to confirm whether it has serious side effects or not.

You cannot have a cov-19 privately in UK. If you do it will be black marketeers. NHS control the procurement.
What a ridiculous comment, his anecdote was not intended to be an expert opinion. The expert opinions came from the BMA, JCVI and even the EMA itself. There is no compelling data to suggest meaningful higher risk. Your loss if you don’t have the Ox/AZ when offered.

No one under 50 in the UK was ever going to be vaccinated anyway, this vaccine, like the flu vaccine, was for older more vulnerable adults. Younger people with a much stronger immune response, could be caused some "freak harm" according to the UK's vaccine task force chair, Kate Bingham.

The article is dated Oct 2020 so rather out of date. the Dr quoted stated only 30M will be vaccinated as a max. We are nearly at that number now with many more wanting to be vaccinated. so its rather a mute point. There are far more people wanting to be vaccinated than not . Though the 20-40 age range might be more reluctant as many believe they are immune from serious illness
You are not a scientist are you.
Why do you assume you're clever ?
Are you British?
They seem to be less stupid than you. Even the British Government seems to be less stupid than you - and that is really saying something!
If the AZ vaccine was a car, its sales figures would nose dive completely. I recall that is what happened to the Morris Marina, wobbly steering wheel at 41mph!
Baffled by Scotland easing restrictions ahead of the rest of the UK. Is this science led, or, is NS under pressure? It can't be down to the vaccination programme is Scotland. Deflection perhaps?
Now all vulnerable etc are sorted, stop running for a test at every sneeze. Just do what you used to do if you felt a bit rough. Stay in til you feel better, have a paracetamol or 2. If you get worse, call the doc', if emergency call an ambulance. Then I can go on my jolly hols'.
Yes, how noble of you to promise vaccines to Third World countries. How about actually giving them some? The variants are being worked on across the world and most of the AZ vaccine is being made in India. Most of the Pfizer vaccine used in the UK is being made in Belgium.
For once, there's no shame in being from the UK but it's not exactly all your own work.

As one who has been vaccinated, over the years, eg Smallpox, BCG, I will certainly avoid vaccines produced in a hurry. It takes many years before you can say for sure a particular vaccine is safe. Even then, it depends on your conscientious collection of adverse reactions. I ask questions because the answers will determine whether I accept the vaccine, if offered. So far I am unconvinced.
