Are Vaccines Safe?
Good Afternoon Sense-ibles,
I thought it was important to take a look at the Vaccine rollout…
The UK's world-first Covid-19 vaccine rollout hit problems within 24 hours after anyone with a serious allergy to medicines or food was told not to have the Pfizer jab because two NHS staff fell ill just after being vaccinated on V-Day.
The number of people set to be barred is not known, but up to 7 million people in Britain have allergies severe enough to require medical care, according to the NHS, while around 250,000 people need to carry an EpiPen at all times.
Today Britain's Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) gave precautionary advice to all 50 NHS trusts now vaccinating the population that anyone who has a history of 'significant' allergic reactions should not receive the vaccine.
Professor Stephen Powis, national medical director for the NHS in England, said: 'The MHRA have advised on a precautionary basis that people with a significant history of allergic reactions do not receive this vaccination after two people with a history of significant allergic reactions responded adversely yesterday. Both are recovering well.'
Both the unnamed healthcare workers needed immediate treatment but are 'recovering well' after they developed symptoms shortly after receiving the jab on the first day of Britain's biggest ever mass vaccination programme yesterday.
Yesterday on our Instagram, we had two scientists from our community take questions and give updates on the vaccines! Do take a look if you haven't. It’s important more than ever to battle misinformation

Presenting Adonay an Event Manager in our Modal team!
“Intro had to be kept short, but yes, I am a proud Eritrean, south west London born and bred, and currently located in Nottingham pursuing a BSc in Financial Mathematics.
Things of interest currently aren’t anything football-related since Arsenal Football Club are trying their hardest to give me a heart attack. M&A Reports, however, have been on the top of my list of things to do other than having lectures to catch-up on or going to motives around Nottingham. Hence, I can hand on heart say Twitter is seeing me for less than 6 hours a day (follow me by the way @adonay_ldn)”
