Coronavirus - how is it/has it affected you?

But they weren't lied to, after their first jab the policy changed. When they had their initial schedule it was for a quick second follow up but in between the policy changed. That's not telling lies.

The policy didn’t change between the morning they got their first jab and that afternoon when they were told. They were told on the morning that their position as medical professionals would see them get it at the three week marker because of their status as very high risk. They had their first jab after the second jabs had started to be delayed.

No, that new data is in the news today, it does make bewildering reading and it is absolutely relevant to how covid is affecting so many of us mentally and impacting in so many other restrictive ways. It is a long road still and worth bearing in mind. Confidence in what you are being officially told is key. You can't easily post in this thread without people reading politics into it because politicians are calling or not calling the shots.
Vaccine program rollout is being positive PR'd to counter a lot of negative PR, that's just how it is.

No, it's being positive PR'd because it's some good news in these times of so much bad news. Why should it to be a counter.

I can only take a guess your real agenda is purely political and you are using these posts to circumnavigate the rules.

Because it comes across as a massive first world problem/selfish waahmbulance type attitude. And if they're medical professionals, as your post alludes to then its all the worse.
Maybe they could take a leaf out of my 80 year old Aunts book. She had her first jab in December and was all booked for her second. This was then cancelled at short notice. Instead of get angry and entitled about it her attitude was if it means someone else avoids this horrible disease then she's happy to wait.

IF they are medical professionals I’m suprised they are furloughed.

All though the UK’s figures need some explanation at a later date to see what and why it happened and not wanting to dwell on it, as we have no idea on what criteria countries used for the figures the graph cannot be looked at as an accurate assessment on how poorly a nation may have done.
 
And how life comes along to put things back into perspective. Last year our niece spent some time in a mental health specialist unit while she recovered from an operation, the cause of which had affected her brain function. While there she made friebds with a girl the same age (14) who was going through her own issues and being helped with her demons. We've just found out the girl took her own life yesterday. 15.
Have a good night lads.

Then why does he make these contentious posts that are obviously designed to provoke argument.

I might consider it useful to understand that there are some - like his two friends - who take the view they have taken. It’s not the poster that’s the real problem - and to a large extent not simply the two friends. But if the two friends are on the front line they actually do have a gripe and a concern...even though they would still most probably have had the vaccination when they did. We should not forget that the exposure the two have to the virus might be potentially very high and they could be risking their lives daily. See the BBC News last night from inside the London Hospital.

On reflection. Whilst not condoning threat to take legal action I can understand anger and concern that some might have. Just saying ?
