I think it’s similar to the pneumonia vaccine in that it trains the immune system. Think I’m right in thinking that the pneumonia vaccine as an adult is a one off vaccine, different for children as they have a course of vaccines.What does 90% protection actually mean in reality? It's still unclear how long protection lasts, too, but I guess that's not as relevant, as the point is to suppress how much it's transmitted, so it becomes more like catching pneumonia, or something else - unlucky!

What does that mean practically, however?Reading up a bit it seems to at least make people asymptomatic with 90% efficacy.
Is that where the famous herd immunity comes in? If 90% of people are, at worst, going to be asymptomatic does that limit the spread?I mean, that's just a number to me. Is 10% non-asymptomatic a risk that's deemed suitable in normality?

Well over my head but there seems to be enough very intelligent people who know what they're on about getting very excited to indicate this is actually genuine good news and a light at the end of the tunnel.literally just passing off a tweet I don’t fully understand here, but fuck it need some hope:

So with about 8.5 million people over the age of the 70, and 1.5 million NHS workers, the 10 million doses that the UK says it will have this year could have taken care of half of them by Christmas. Incredible stuff.
That's not even taking into account the other vaccines (working on similar principles) that are yet to announce results.
Already seen the nutters saying Bill Gates has shares in one of the companies.
Why the fuck would they go through all the effort of inventing a virus and then vaccinating us as a cover to put chips in our bodies when we carry round and charge our own tracking devices that listen to us all day.
Also if it's about mind control then bring it on, thinking is exhausting.
This is the prioritisation apparently:

Looks like 10m doses, 2 per person, plus some waste, say 4m people conservatively. Enough to do NHS workers and care homes this winter which would make a massive difference. Much easier to roll out quickly in a medical or semi medical environment I’d guess.
Gets us over the hump then next year we can start getting to elderly vaccinated.
Nothing before Spring I’d guess in terms of back to normal. Whatever that ends up being.
Take some D3 and B12 for that, you'd be amazed,I wonder if they dare even take a daily supplement .Already seen the nutters saying Bill Gates has shares in one of the companies.

If the AstraZeneca results which are due very soon are positive you maybe able to duplicate the amount of vaccine does available which means you could also make a dent in the elderly population this winter as well.
Especially as Pzifer didn't join any government schemes and spent billions on the R+D themselves.
Its not all good news
We’ve already spent £ 30-40M on reserving doses of this drug while in development. No chance that’s going to happen.So expect Johnson's press conference to be that we're not taking up this vaccine cos we're going to develop our own world beating one, and that in relation to this we've just given an eleventy billion pound contract to a group venture between Serco and G4S to develop and administer it, all headed up by Dido Harding who will be Chairperson for Life. At which point she appears at the podium going "I...I...I.. wanna thank you, for giving me the best job of my life"
Didn’t take long for the Bill Gates, illuminati, going to use it to trace us all through microchips hidden in the vaccine right wing conspiracies to start.

At least it's hopefully going to end Peter Sutcliffe. Every cloud.
It's still well into next year. Tbf to Johnson he's been realistic about it in the press conference
So that's a total of five weeks from getting the first dose, to being immune. Puts the timeline to normality back a bit...

I think the thing is, to an extent, the timing is almost less important than there just being a light at the end of the tunnel. Of course we would all prefer it to be sooner but it’s just such a morale boost to know that there’s an end in sight.It's still well into next year. Tbf to Johnson he's been realistic about it in the press conference
Yeah, same for me. Get my parents vaccinated and I'll feel OK.Yeah it’s like anything isn’t it? It’s the lack of a light at the end of the tunnel that gets you.
Also I don’t think you need anything like everyone vaccinated before things get back to normal. Not bothered when I get it, but hope my Dad gets it in the next few months because then that’s a massive weight off my mind day to day. That’s huge.
