I tried this several times since BB posted(I'm sure it's the correct 'link' but.....)

Using a PC( not a mobile) when I enter my 13 digit code into the box, when I hit return or click the blue button below, nothing happens at all

I don't even get an error message

It's like the process isn't completed yet

Or the site is just faulty or not yet active?

Out of interest, has anyone contacted the Public Health Office about this?

TIA

Having a third, fourth, fifth vaccine does not stop you from transmitting the virus to someone else that may suffer.

I'm by no means an anti-vaxer (I've had my two), but this has to end somewhere - this virus will not stop mutating, all we're doing is running from the beast while those at the top get richer and gain more control over the masses.

Good article explaining it in simple terms. Another one from The Guardian with an interesting last paragraph.

What makes boosters more effective than the first two Covid jabs?

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/ ... covid-jabs

The next generation of vaccines, scientists hope, will not only be a good match to circulating strains but provide far broader immune protection so that they are effective against mutations. One possibility is a vaccine specifically designed to trigger a T-cell response to the viral replication machinery as opposed to the spike protein, which scientists have suggested could result in immunity lasting years rather than months.

If it turns out that annual boosters are required to prevent serious illness, what’s wrong with that? Citing that big pharmaceuticals are making billions out of this pandemic is nothing new, they’ve been doing that for generations.

As far as I know, there's quite a difference between the flu booster shot and the Covid shot.

The flu shot has been around for years and was tested for years before being released to the public. The Covid shot was rushed out and there are still many unknowns, including the long-term effects.

On a personal note, I've never had a flu shot or had the flu. I had a cold about 60 yrs. ago. I maintain a strong immune system through diet and supplements and stay away from crowds.

I'm not an anti-vaxxer &'m not recommending any particular lifestyle to anyone else. Everyone does what they think is best for them.

Of course the flu vaccine has been available for donkeys years, but Covid is new so we either wait until it’s pedigree is proven, or take a calculated chance and get vaccinated. Although there has been a very small percentage of adverse reactions, the benefits appear to considerably outweigh the risks.

But as you say and as I have agreed, everyone can do their own thing, but there’s still a risk that by not getting vaccinated, this disease will linger longer.
