I was prompted to write this in response to latest announcement for vaccine plans. The cost benefit analysis underpinning decisions is not available to scrutinise but I fear we are heading for fewer free covid vaccines theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
@sheencr Great article, Prof Cruickshank - thank you 🙏🏻
@sheencr Don't wait for the govt to suddenly treat you as non-expendable, get your boosters privately via Pharmadoctor UK. Not to mention that it's #Novavax which has always been a miles better product.. 😉 x.com/om_rxd/status/…

@sheencr Thank you for writing this article! Do you know why JCVI didn’t choose to recommend the Novavax vaccine, despite the government buying 1000s of them? Less long term data? I’m fortunate that I can afford a private Covid vaccine in April, and it’ll be the updated Novavax.
@sheencr Maybe if the #CovidVaccines were safe and effective it would have a higher uptake. The peer reviewed scientific conclusion says it is neither of those things... cureus.com/articles/20305…
@sheencr @dirtybird12345 1.2 mn immunocompromised. 4 years and 8 Covid vaccines on I’m still without any meaningful antibodies, or the MHRA approved drug, Evusheld, that has gone on to successfully protect the extremely vulnerable in 30+ other countries @4gottenlivesuk @APPG_VGP
@sheencr I agree. The cost benefit according to the JCVI without supporting evidence outweighs public health. Their cost benefit also includes being comfortable throwing away millions of vaccines we paid for yet we don’t get a say!
@sheencr The exclusive focus on vaccines is unfortunate. Vaccines alone will not get us out of this. Only with transmission reducing measures will we get best value from them. Despite multiple vaccines, 'immortal' billionaire Bryan Johnson found this out. x.com/DrNick4126/sta…
