Yes I was demonstrating how well this present a negative lateral flow test will work if they are relying on a text on your phone.

They shouldn't be. They should be relying on the NHS covid pass. It's still possible to fake (report a negative home test in your account when you've not taken one) but it's more work because you'd have to go get some tests and if you've got them, why not just take one and find out sooner if you're infected and could benefit from one of the new anti-covid pills?

Well no you don’t need to obtain the tests. You just have to log in, enter a suitable code for a test you supposedly did and away you go.

A third dose is no different to the first or second dose in terms of the volume of vaccine injected.

The booster dose is ~ half the volume of a standard dose and will be an mRNA vaccine (Pfizer of Mederna).

Pfizer's contains 30 micrograms of vaccine, Moderna went with a much larger dose of vaccine, 100 micrograms.

Whilst AZ had 5 x 10^10 viral particles which is 10 times the number of white blood cells which are normally in circulation in the blood.

The 75% is at population level recognising that not everyones immune responds the same the vaccines. Unless you do some tests you won’t know how well your immune system is primed from the jabs.

I told somebody this yesterday 50% of people will be higher and 50% lower, I also think the ones who need it the most maybe the ones that are lower than the population average.

Just out of interest, where do you get a suitable code if you haven't obtained a kit?
