I didn't say natural immunity means you can't catch it again if it mutates - but neither does a jab. The idea that you'd be safer sat next to someone who has had a jab as opposed to someone who actually caught the virus and whose body fought it off is nonsense. That's never the case.

If the virus mutates seasonally, there are two ways to build immunity - to catch it or to have a vaccination. That will be the case for as often as it mutates into something our antibodies are of no use in fending off.

Again, the only benefit of a vaccination as opposed to actually catching the virus is it's a lot safer. In terms of spreading the virus or personal immunity, definitively not.

 

I'm not convinced when the vaccine is available everyone offered it will take the offer up, I may find myself sat at games with fellow fans who have not been vaccinated and might have tested Covid positive in the past there is little I can do.
As you say I'm classed as in the high risk category no presumably about it unfortunately, and could possibly be offered the vaccine relatively soon they say it's safe but it's hardly had any long term trials so I either take it and put my faith in the experts or take my chance as I am, there would be many things I would like to do which maybe are not wise to do without the injection.
A difficult call but I'll have the injection as and when offered and hope I don't get any side effects like getting the urge to watch Leeds United .

 

So you agree with Jon that we don't really need the vaccine because natural immunisation is better but just to be safe you're going to get the vaccine?

There's a bit of a conflict there in your posts.

 

A typical Monkey reply, I try to answer your loaded post why do I bother.

Of course I'm going to get the vaccine even in your reply you suggest me being in the "at risk category", if I'd caught Covid previously from someone who had been infected and I'd fought it off I would still get the vaccine if offered why wouldn't I, even the medical experts haven't said those who have had it and generated a natural immunity may get it again, I'm in a high risk category so any advantage I could get from an injection I would be silly not to.

 

Pretty sure that's the point I've been making all along.

 

My cardio took a big hit, I'm not saying I was fit, I wasn't, but walking regularly was not an issue - it takes it out of me now though, so I can imagine there is some lung damage.

How did they find out they had scarring? GP?

 

An update of sorts,
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/54977370

Seeing as Bradford was going to drop to Tier 3 just before the Lockdown part 2, it might still be a while before the crowds are back at Valley Parade.

 

Government funding for Sports to be announced tomorrow but it's a no for football and cricket.

This government is a joke!

Ah but if everybody attending football had to wear PPE fully, the Government would be wetting themselves cos all their cronies would make a packet out of it....

 

Up to 2,000 fans will be allowed in tier two areas but zero in tier three.

Logistical nightmare for clubs and supporters.

 

From the BBC

A maximum of 4,000 fans are set to be allowed at outdoor events in the lowest-risk areas when the national lockdown in England ends on 2 December, BBC Sport understands.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson is expected to make an announcement later on Monday about the return of crowds.

He will make a statement to the House of Commons, and MPs will vote on it later in the week.

Up to 2,000 fans will be allowed in tier two areas but zero in tier three.


So that's Zero in Bradford. The 4,000 thing is bollocks anyhow. So Forrest Green in Tier 1 for example could have 4k fans in a 6k ground, but Bradford say in tier 3 could have no fans in a 25k ground.

 

Its 4000 fans or 50% whichever is lower

 

The key with a tier system is how do you get into a lower tier?

2k-4k isn't enough fans anyway.

 

New tiers.

Talk of our game being moved to next Wednesday instead of Tuesday to allow fans for those that are allowed. The club better get posting them season tickets

 

It’s not my idea it’s the EFL’s. A blanket move to allow the clubs who can have fans, have fans. Doesn’t say anything about places in tier 3 not moving

Edit - there’s no chance we will be in any lower than tier 3. Latest figures show we are 15th in the country

 

How many season tickets did we sell in the end?
