Double-jabbed UK tourists could skip amber-list quarantine under proposals
Ministers looking at loosening travel restrictions for fully vaccinated travellers returning to England
Covid: Epidemic growing across England, says study
The rollout of jabs to younger people is key to reducing further spread, researchers say.

Don't think any of this is surprising, just shows despite an actually great rollout campaign our opening up has been too early and probably had too much risk.

It is now the dominant strain in the UK - but the rest of the world may well follow suit.

Moderna, Pfizer or AstraZeneca? The ridiculous, diverting rise of vaccine envy
Casual vaccine chat is today’s only form of small talk, so it’s not surprising it would take a lightheartedly tribal turn. Ultimately, of course, gratitude is at the heart of the conversation
Defo wished I had the Pfizer when I first had AZ. But just reminded myself at the time I didn’t have a choice. the main thing was not to catch Covid and end up in hospital. Having gone well last 6/7 weeks post second jab and any side effects, what with the efficacy rates for AZ much improved v the delta variant can honestly say feel a whole lot better getting the AZ jabs.

Angela Merkel receives Moderna as second jab after AstraZeneca shot
Experts believe mixed dosing of Covid vaccines could be a good idea but it's too early to say for sure.

Currently in the UK that is the case. There is talk of either the booster in the Autumn being a tweaked version of the Pfizer or AZ or the third shot being different from the first two peeps have had. We’ll see. First got to get more peeps double jabbed with the vaccines we do have.

It's popular in Poland now, 1st jab is AZ and second one is Pfizer for example.
My Russian friends had same side effects after Sputnik as foreigners usually have after AZ by the way, very similar description (high temperature during the first night after it and headache etc). One friend of mine who also lives in Poland,got her Sputnik jab in Russia but had to stay on quarantine when she came back to Poland recently, because this vaccine is not approved in the EU
Not approved in the EU but its the one most Hungarians have had..It's popular in Poland now, 1st jab is AZ and second one is Pfizer for example.
