My parents have both had clotting issues, but don't fit the specific 4 conditions that give them automatic access to Pfizer. They have sought medical advice and as they are 87 & 88 respectively with dementia, as a representative of their children I also spoke to their doctor long ago.
It does make you wonder where we'd be if the Government had not made a distinction between Pfizer and AZ - simply open the clinics, walk in and get vaccinated with 'a vaccine'. Hesitancy would barely exist.
Similar to your parents, I have a long history of clotting issues and my Dr recommended not to get AZ. There was nothing I could do to get Pfizer so had to choose between being unvaccinated or taking AZ. My Dr finally agreed that COVID was the greater risk and I'm now lining up for my second AZ next week.
It kills me. Imagine all the kids vaccines or flu vaccines we've taken but now it's COVID we have to know the brand.
Please enlighten us all with all of the kids or flu vaccines that have more than one option? I'll wait.
All of my kids are fully vaccinated but Ill tell you what if there were two different MMR vaccines, Ill tell you which one I would get injected into them. The one with the highest efficacy. Which MMR vaccine would you get injected into your kids if there were more than one option?
You go and take your medicine. Let the medical system choose which one to give you.
One thing that hasn't been said is some doctors are hopeless. We go to the local GP and there is this kid there who can't offer an opinion. He is hopeless. You just have to go to a different doctor.

Earl 3 hours ago: " We should all be subject to the best medical advice. I was just trying to understand why brand name is important to some people. It didn’t make any sense to me unless there was ***a medical reason.***
Earl a hour ago : "You go and take your medicine. ***Let the medical system choose which one to give you***."

Ok.....enough. This guy is simply promoting misinformation. We should NOT listen to the medical community because they dont care which vaccine, but we should listen to the medical community to determine which vaccine but some doctors which have spent 6 years at Uni and as a locum are not worthy of Earls respect and listening.
Ive heard enough of Earls ramblings about these vaccines. Mods seem ok with it.
