Privileged to be British.

[Indus Pakistan]

Today I got my second Pfizher Biontec jab and thus have my full protection and that medicine can provide. My wife, both my parents also have their second jabs done. Even my children aged 21,23 have had their first jabs done. It was quite easy for them because my wife told the doctor they help out with care of my elderly parents which qualified them for the jab. Only my younger kids at 14 do not have a jab because the vaccines have not been certified for children.

Looking at the terrible news coming out of India and things not looking good in Pakistan either it really brought home how we are privilged in being British. This feeling is made even more conspicious by the fact that even rest of the West is lagging behind. Only tiny or micro-states or city states like Israel etc have done better.

So a salute is in order.

Good for u if u feel privileged. You are not alone, there are many many who feel proud of being loyal servants to the queen.

 

[Ali_Baba]

I to am a loyal servant to the Queen aswell - and I have had my first jab of AstraZeneca and i have the date for my second jab already.

The UK has taken the right approach by putting up real hard cash to finance and back several different vaccines with a view that some might be successful and it was prepared to take the financial losses on those that were not successful.

The UK has put some real skin in the game and made sure that the Astra is sold at cost and not profit ( how many Pfizer vaccines can Pakistan affort at $20 per shot ? )...

Leaving the EU was a blessing for the UK. Definitely helped them fight Corona virus.

Not sure if it was the best economic decision.

But for sake of combating the Coronavirus , leaving EU was a blessing in disguise.

Best of luck to the UK.

Mubarakbad!
May Allah swt keep us all in his protection.

Same here. It's been quite a blessing, and makes you feel and appreciate the hard decisions UK Government has taken to get us this far. Long may this continue - God save the Queen.

I realised how lucky I was when I went on holiday to Malaysia many years ago. I went via a family trip to Bangladesh. So I was on a plane full of other Bangladeshis. We all made conversation and had an amiable time on the flight.

When we landed I followed everyone out of the plane and arrived at entry control . There were 2 queues, one had an Officer serving 150 or so people, it stretched back about a 100 metres. The other had 1 officer and 3 people in it.

It was chaotic and I didn't understand the queue system, so waited in the long line. After a while one of the guys from our flight says to me - you have a British passport right? I nodded yes, 'you should be in the other queue' he said. For a moment I was delighted at the chance but as I said my goodbyes and walked towards the other line I was hit by a massive sense of shame.

For no reason at all other than my passport, I got to be treated like a different class - by fellow Muslims no less. What must the other BD passengers be feeling seeing this I thought

I saw plainly for the first time the true, unfair nature of the world. But for all the guilt and shame a thanked the almighty that I was on this side of the divide.

This has been the main reason behind the blood clot saga that was triggered to undermine this vaccine,
The lobby groups in EU and other EEC countries went into overdrive - why would you not spend a few millions making sure AstraZeneca plants were producing to capacity rather than spend inflated prices to Pfizer and Moderna.

The French obsession with Sanofi was a disaster as well. All done to earn more money - which has comically backfired in their faces. The EU lawsuit against AstraZeneca would be final nail in coffin for these EU officials.

All in all, a good outcome of some shrewd decision making. The current government deserves the plaudits for this - which is why I don't mind if the Buffon has spent nearly £200k on his flat.

The start of the vaccination campaign has been slow and chaotic in the EU it's true,but we are now catching up.

In France nearly 23% have already a first vaccine dose. Injections now average 500K a day. (556.379 yesterday)

Infections as well as patients in hospital and ICU are decreasing. We are soon out of lockdown. (Pretty much nobody respects it anyway here)

hahahhaha very good. Things are not that bad here in Pakistan. We are also getting vaccines, But so far only 40+
Most people come for vaccine without registration and arguing with medical staff and causing delay for other people registered and given dates for vaccination. But this behavior is what makes us different we are pakistani in end

hehehehe

Vaccines are giving a lot of people heart attacks by blood clotting. You better be under monitoring.

 

[Indus Pakistan]

Well we all are "loyal servants" of something. You are a loyal servant of a state often led by the most corrupt rascals you can find like Nawaz Sharif or Zardari. They give you nothing but plunder the money to live life of like kings in London. So both of us are loyal to kings or queens living in London. But mine at least gives me plenty of oppportunities. And pay my respects to your queen in the waiting Maryam Sharif. Have some money ready for her as she will need to buy more apartments in London.

They do but statistically the figures are minuscle. More chance of having a car accident and being killed.

She is not Queen but a daughter of my corrupt servant of the state of Pakistan.
