This is why I took the AZ. I didn't want an extra boner that Pfizer may have caused.
Canadaman, take the shot, you probably need all the help you can get.

I got my first AZ shot today and love it. Feel good and relieved. Happy to do my part and now will enjoy some nice take-out with a glass of red and a nightcap of the finest edibles the westside has to offer. Stay safe all.
U.K. variant isn't linked to more severe disease or death, study finds
The variant known as B.1.1.7 is now the dominant coronavirus strain in Europe and the U.S. Scientists say there is still much to learn about the more contagious virus.
But the P1...that’s definitely going to get us. Or wait the B1.617 double mutant is going to get us. Oh wait the Bengal TRIPLE MUTANT is the real danger.
When are you going to accept that this is all bullshit?

May I suggest a trip to India before the Vaccine Passports kick in!
Got first shot of AZ last week. Minor aches and sluggishness the next day but have been fine since. When I get my second one I'll be making up for lost time hobbying.

Bullshit? Huh? What are you talking about? Did you even read the article? Or not understand the scientific process?:
Given the same circumstances, a virus that is "more transmissible" is going to kill more people than a lesser transmissible virus that is equally deadly to the average individual.
U.K. Coronavirus Variant Is Significantly More Deadly, Says New Study
The B.1.1.7 variant is already known to be more transmissible, but according to new research, it is associated with 55% higher mortality too.

No, that’s not how it works. Viruses generally attenuate as they mutate, which they all do, and never stop doing.
The article is clear. The UK variant was not more contagious and it was not more deadly.
Your government lied to you to strip your rights away piece by piece.
They are still lying to you, and they’re still taking your rights away, but too many don’t care. This country is finished.

Coronavirus 'swallowing' people in India; crematoriums overwhelmed
With life-saving oxygen in short supply, family members in India are left on their own to ferry coronavirus patients from hospital to hospital in search of treatment as the country is engulfed in a devastating new surge of infections. Too often their efforts end in mourning.

How strange. Same thing that happens everywhere.

A police officer in Australia was rushed to the hospital due to blood clots several days after receiving the Pfizer-BioNTech Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccine.
The 40-year-old officers from the state of Queensland had been previously tasked with patrolling the state’s quarantine hotels, according to local media outlet Nine News. He had received the Pfizer coronavirus vaccine on Sunday, April 18. (Related: Australian doctor “shocked” by adverse effects of Pfizer coronavirus vaccine’s second jab.)
On Wednesday, he was rushed to a hospital in the state capital of Brisbane after developing blood clots. As of press time, Nine News reported that the officer has since been discharged and has returned to active duty.
Officials refuse to acknowledge possibility of link between Pfizer vaccine and blood clots
Queensland Health, the main health department of the state, is investigating the incident along with the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), the country’s highest drug regulator.
Queensland Deputy Premier Steven Miles denied the connection between the blood clots and the Pfizer vaccine, saying it was too early to know if there is any link.
“What people should be very confident in though, is that our medical authorities are determined to investigate any such incident and provide that information and data, nationally and indeed internationally,” said Miles on Wednesday. “It will be thoroughly investigated. Our TGA is one of the strictest in the world.”
The health department avoided answering questions about the incident. In a statement it released on Wednesday, it deflected all concerns regarding the police officer’s situation.
“Queensland Health is aware of media reports that a 40-year-old had presented to a hospital following the coronavirus vaccine,” read the department’s statement. “The patient presented to a private hospital, is not currently admitted and any queries should be directed to the Federal Government.”
“In Queensland, all adverse events in relation to the COVID-19 vaccines are reported to the Therapeutic Goods Administration,” the statement continued. “The TGA will then undertake an assessment and determine whether there is any clinical link to the vaccination.”
Australian government restricts Pfizer coronavirus vaccine to people under 50
The incident with the police officer came just before the federal government of Australia announced that it was limiting the use of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccines to Australians under the age of 50.
Department of Health Secretary Brendan Murphy said during a press conference that the Pfizer vaccine will be “restricted” to people under 50, despite earlier advice from health experts that it be merely classified as “recommended” for that age group.
“People will always have a choice and more Pfizer [vaccines] will be available later in the year,” said Murphy. “At this stage, we will not be making Pfizer available to those 50 and over.” For Australians over 50, the government has recommended the coronavirus vaccine developed by AstraZeneca.
“The risk-benefit for over 50 is vastly in favor of being vaccinated [with AstraZeneca],” claimed Murphy. This is despite the fact that at least one Australian has already died from blood clots likely linked to the AstraZeneca vaccine.
The change in Australia’s coronavirus vaccination rules may have been prompted by the high levels of vaccine hesitancy among certain groups. Many under 50 who qualify for the coronavirus vaccine, especially healthcare workers, have opted to refuse because they were supposed to get the AstraZeneca vaccine. Many are worried about the blood clots this vaccine causes.
“We hope that Australians heed the call to come out and get vaccinated,” said Murphy.
If the case of the Queensland police officer is confirmed, it will be the first official Pfizer case in the country to be connected to severe blood clots. Before this case, at least three Australians have been diagnosed with blood clots that were linked to the AstraZeneca vaccine.
Furthermore, over a dozen individuals have reported experiencing allergic reactions to the Pfizer coronavirus vaccine, but none of these people developed blood clots.

Vaccine success makes UK attractive to international students, poll finds
Survey reveals Britain is more popular destination for studying than US, Canada, Australia and Germany

International students are more likely to want to study at British universities thanks to the success of the vaccine rollout, despite a widespread perception that the UK government mishandled its initial response to the pandemic, a survey suggests.
Nearly half (47%) of prospective international students said they would be more likely to choose to study in the UK because of the rate of vaccinations in the country, with nearly a fifth (17%) saying they thought the government was handling the rollout better than anywhere else, according to the survey of 105,083 students planning to attend university abroad. The UK was more popular than the US, Canada, Australia and Germany.
The report, authored by university rankings provider QS, said: “The effectiveness and speed of the rollout is making the UK seem a more attractive and viable destination to begin their studies in September compared to some other countries.”
Despite their enthusiasm for the vaccine programme, nearly half (45%) of the students surveyed said they did not think the UK had handled its broader pandemic response effectively, a much lower rating than for New Zealand, Canada, Australia and Germany. The report speculated that this was due to international coverage of the UK’s high death toll.
Vivienne Stern, the director of Universities UK International (UUKi), said the survey showed UK universities had remained resilient over the course of a difficult year, but they and the government would need to listen closely to international students’ concerns and priorities to sustain high recruitment levels.
Nearly a fifth (17%) of the respondents said the vaccine had made them bring forward their plans to study abroad, while more than half (56%) said they were focusing their search on countries in which a successful vaccine programme was being implemented.
Nearly two-thirds (58%) of the students also thought the UK was becoming more welcoming to international students thanks to the reintroduction of post-study work visas, following several years of immigration policies seen as hostile to overseas students. However, European students perceived the UK to be less welcoming since they will have to pay higher international fees from September as a result of Brexit.
Despite initial fears that international students would be deterred from attending UK universities due to the country’s high Covid infection rates and death toll, applications from overseas reached their highest level last year.
However some current international students have been angry at paying high fees to study mostly online during successive lockdowns. In March, 300 international students at several London universities withheld their £29,000 fees in protest at their universities’ response to the pandemic.
