If you read his quotes. Im really not sure what hes trying to say here because, clearly, the science has been done on this vaccine, clearly the tests have done very well. My mum, who is in one of the Vaccination Groups who are currently getting it out the moment, im not going to tell you her age on television.

Herriot, what you think is make you read to achieve by this. Herriot, what you think is make you read his l you think is make you read his comments. A lot of anger over that, because the issue for some people is reticence. They dont want to get the vaccine. They are worried, and making comments like that, especially from someone in a position of power abuse does not help the situation. I position of power abuse does not help the situation. Help the situation. I think youre uuite help the situation. I think youre quite right help the situation. I think youre quite right it help the situation. I think youre quite right. It also help the situation. I think youre quite right. It also comes help the situation. I think youre quite right. It also comes after. Quite right. It also comes after german quite right.

Trial, that they did believe it to work. And trial, that they did believe it to work, and is also based on evidence from work, and is also based on evidence from other work, and is also based on evidence from other vaccines that, yes, they might from other vaccines that, yes, they might get from other vaccines that, yes, they might get slightly less effective with age, but they do work, and it is certainly with age, but they do work, and it is certainly not as bad as Emmanuel Macron is certainly not as bad as Emmanuel Macron said~ is certainly not as bad as Emmanuel Macron said.

The vaccine leap will protect uk and the rest of the world. Now, this is referring to a couple of more vaccines that we have seen that have come out and, you know have shown to have strong efficacy against the covid i9, and also, i think also some of its variants as well. I mean, this is great news, isnt it, james, because we are moving forward now. The more vaccines out there that are proven to work, the quicker we are going to be able to battle covid i9. That to work, the quicker we are going to be able to battle covid19. Be able to battle covid19. That is uuite be able to battle covid19. That is quite right be able to battle covid19. That is quite right. The be able to battle covid19. That is quite right. The interesting be able to battle covid19. That is quite right. The interesting thing l quite right. The interesting thing about thejohnson quite right. The interesting thing about the johnson and johnson vaccine is that it only requires one jab. Which is very different to the three different vaccines working at the moment which you need two. This requires one jab. The number is lower than the percentage of each effectiveness is lower than some of the other vaccines, but i think, if you track back to before we had any of these and you said to people, theres a vaccine, weve got 65 effectiveness, the scientists would up effectiveness, the scientists would up sink in a while, thats great, get it out there, get it into people. The other one is obviously being produced on teesside, which, again, you know, amid the rows and the unfortunate bus stop weve just been talking about, this is a piece of genuinely good news.

Died with coronavirus after having thisjab, and it also appears died with coronavirus after having this jab, and it also appears to work this jab, and it also appears to work on this jab, and it also appears to work on the South African variant which work on the South African variant which was work on the South African variant which was causing concern among the scientists which was causing concern among the scientists that thats potentially might scientists that thats potentially might evade some vaccines. So this is also might evade some vaccines. So this is also great, and its stored at fridge is also great, and its stored at fridge temperatures, and asjames said, fridge temperatures, and asjames said. Only fridge temperatures, and asjames said, only one dose. So this offers a hit said, only one dose. So this offers a hit of said, only one dose. So this offers a hit of hope said, only one dose. So this offers a bit of hope into them rolling out the vaccine a bit of hope into them rolling out the vaccine in developing countries, because the vaccine in developing countries, because it the vaccine in developing countries, because it is that much simpler to administer because it is that much simpler to administer in countries where the health administer in countries where the Health Services are not sort of as good Health Services are not sort of as good as Health Services are not sort of as good as the uk where vaccine rollout good as the uk where vaccine roll out complicated as it is as much roll out complicated as it is as much more roll out complicated as it is as much more straightforward.

The commission is not triggering the safeguard clause, should transits and vaccines to third countries be abused to circumvent the effects of the authorization system, the eu will consider using all the instruments at its disposal.
