Corona Virus Treatment

Mr. W has had the Cominarty de Pfizer Vaccine and the whole set up was completely brilliant. It took 45 mins, he went in on time so went straight into his allotted cubicle where he was run through the procedure of his health(which I sent a file to them as he takes BP tablet daily)and asked of any allergies any knowledge of any possible contact with a suspected covid19 victim.
He had exactly 15 mins rest afterwards and was asked how he felt.the injection by the way was completely painless..Home and now lunch

Hi we are both disabled with lunge disorders and heart problems we are aged 58.
We was informed that we are on priority list 6 so still waiting for vaccine not only this but I am the main carer to my wife.
I heard a while ago that after you have the vaccine you are suppose to stay in for 2 to 3 weeks for vaccine to work by the government
Then why is it when you have the vaccine your not told by the professional who gives vaccine to say in for 2 to 3 weeks
Thanks for your help and advice

 

Thanks for your reply. This is what I saw on www

Britons who have received first Covid jab must stay at home for THREE WEEKS so immunity 'kicks in' | Daily Mail Online

 

Thanks for your reply. I don't really understand why the article is saying after first jab stay at home for 3 weeks. When people we know had the jab no advice was given after by health care professionals who give the vaccine.
To be honest with you I am the main carer to my wife we are both disabled and I am extremely scared about going out of the house. Due to what was said by matt Hancock people with no symptoms can pass on covid.

 

4 February 2021
France should receive around 27 million doses of Pfizer-BioNTech's Covid-19 vaccine by the end of June, 2021
By Connexion journalist
Pfizer is on track to meet its targets of vaccine dose deliveries to France and the EU, David Lepoittevin, director of the vaccines division at the French subsidiary of the American laboratory Pfizer, told Franceinfo.

In mid-January, Pfizer announced that its shipments of doses would be affected as it was making changes to its manufacturing process to boost production.

This led to France receiving 300,000 fewer Pfizer vaccine doses than expected in January.

But Mr Lepoittevin said the situation is now resolved.

“To be able to readjust our lines from a quality point of view, we had to reduce the pace and therefore slow down deliveries over a week. Today, we are in line with the objectives we had set ourselves.

“Our objective is to be able to deliver 5 million doses to France by the end of February, 9 million by the end of March and 27 million doses... by the end of June,” he said.

 

So. With the greatest respect to one and all. Many of us have posted our dealings with this pandemic. Now. Can we make it more personal.

OK. Lockdown. How has that affected you.
Perhaps you are not alone. Wifey or hubby is here. So how have you coped?
For us who are on our own. How have you fared?

I also suffer from rapid depression. Personality disorder. Eptopic heart beat. Chronic pain in spine. Diabetic.admitted to hospital for Stoke in Nov 2020. I also have blood clot on my brain that effects my hearing and nose. hopefully with help from care for the carers tested for ptsd as well as I have had issues with professionals since 1996
My wife has bi polar disorder. In some cases she has been violent towards me. Diabetic. Asthma. Copd.sleep apena. Dystonia.gallstones. admitted 3 times to hospital for pancreas issues. Over weight. Learning disability. Since covid started we like alot of people have had no support from anyone apart from triage call from Dr Surgery. Nothing from asc. Social services. Even wellbeing can't help me with my mental health.
Every time I go out I am extremely scared and look at other people and think have they got covid. If I have to go to eg petrol station. Supermarkets.we get shopping online when it arrives has it got covid. I wear a mask. Gloves. Use hand gel but I am in and out I don't want to be there. As lots of different news about covid and transmission. I look on the news several times a day I can't really relax.
When we get our vaccine is not sure at the moment I looked at a vaccine calculator and it said first 2 weeks of Feb 2021 but like alot of people not had it yet. I have to take the dog for wee etc I am looking around all the time for people who may have covid has government said people with no symptoms can pass it on.
I wear a mask but I am out of breath my glasses steam up I put wash up liquid on don't seem to help. I just don't know if we will survive like alot of people very worried. Scared....

 

We don't have a shortage of beds ...

"There are some examples of hotels, in the Algarve, Madeira or in the north of the country, that are receiving Covid patients with mild symptoms, in direct contact and with express request from the regional health authorities.

"In the case of the Algarve, "hotels have been available since the beginning of the pandemic to receive medical, civil protection and all health-related people who had to come to the region and had nowhere to stay," says Elidérico Viegas, president of Association of Hotels and Tourist Enterprises of the Algarve (AHETA)

"Hotels in the Algarve will be available to collaborate, and to receive patients with mild symptoms, in partnership with health authorities, if necessary ", guarantees the president of AHETA. "Hotels have the facilities, and have services that can be used in case of need, such as meals, hygiene and cleaning."

"In the Algarve we have about 500 hotels with 130 thousand beds, more than all hospitals put together, which are suitable places to receive patients with mild symptoms, while the health system saturated. Hotels are available to help, but they need to be contacted for this purpose ", stresses Elidérico Viegas, president of AHETA.

"For people with mild symptoms, and as there is no capacity for hospital structures, hotels seem to be very suitable places for this purpose" ,

"In the initial phase of the outbreak, last year, the Association of Hotels in Portugal (AHP) assumed the role of coordinating the provision of hotel rooms to health professionals who feared to contaminate their families, in a project called "Rooms against covid". But this year, and with the point of overload that hit the hospitals, the association has not yet signalled that there is a need for hotels to accommodate patients, and to alleviate health structures.

"The main national hotel groups, Pestana and Vila Galé, are receptive to helping the current critical situation in hospitals, providing hotels that are closed to receive patients with mild symptoms, quarantined people or health professionals, similarly to what happened in March last year. The hotels that are currently doing so are Ilha Dourada, in Porto Santo, Pestana Bay, in Madeira, and Pestana Blue Alvor, in Algarve "

 

During the first Lockdown a local hotel here took on ( non Covid) recovering patients from the Hospital so as to make more beds available to those with Covid . Not sure if it's doing so this time, but it's a good idea. My Dad was offered a room at the Hotel, but ( thankfully) he decided to spend his last days at home.

 

I'm on my own, I suppose I'm lucky that as far as I know I don't have any lung problems or are susceptible to any.
I'm carrying on pretty much as normal, I don't think I'm invincible but I do have the advantage that if I pop my clogs I'm not going to bother any one else much.
So take what I consider sensible precautions, have a daily chat with the walls, and my self and hope things get better in a few weeks.
I do need a haircut.
