Sajid Javid Urges the Elderly and Vulnerable to Get Booster Jabs to Avoid a Winter Lockdown

2 min read

Sajid Javid has called on all those eligible for the booster jab to take up the offer and do their part to avoid the need for a winter lockdown. The Health Secretary added that, as immunity against the virus begins to decrease over time, a third dose is needed to protect the public. Sky News has the story.

Around 30% of people aged over 80 and 40% of over 50s in England are yet to receive a top-up jab of the Covid vaccine, according to the Department of Health.

Three million more people in England are being invited to have a booster shot next week – and Sajid Javid said he “strongly urges” everybody eligible for the jab to take up the offer.

The Health Secretary said: “We know immunity begins to wane after six months, especially for the elderly and the vulnerable, and booster vaccines will top-up their protection to keep people safe over the winter.

“I strongly urge everybody who is eligible for a Covid booster or flu vaccine to take up the offer as soon as you can.

“For those not yet eligible, please help your parents, grandparents or vulnerable loved ones get their jabs, as it could save their life.”

Javid also told anyone who is yet to have their first or second dose of the Covid vaccine, “it is not too late”.

“This truly is a national mission”, he added.

“If we all come together and play our part, we can get through this challenging winter, avoid a return to restrictions and enjoy Christmas”.

What the hell’s it got to do with him? Reprehensible little toad.

It’s about time we had a ”Health Secretary” with some kind of qualification or experience in medicine or science. At least then we’d know he was talking through his own hat, rather than someone else’s.

Dr Peter McCullough has advised in a warning, NO ONE should take a booster because of the spike proteins in the vaxx. But Sajid Javid, a politician thinks the elderly and vulnerable should take a booster. I am sure Javid, a politician by trade, knows what he is talking about, but wondering what random controlled studies he is referring to when he makes these kind of broad statements.

I emailed Sajid Javid and raised questions about the Government narrative, extending the opportunity to justify and substantiate their various claims. No surprise. no reply I asked my MP if he would raise my questions with Sajid Javid. No surprise, no reply. By default the Government therefore is unable and unwilling to tell the truth and thus the narrative is confirmed as part of the Big Lie.

Stretch, these idiots sound like a broken record repeating the same nonsense time after time.
Once 99% of over 50’s, 95% of under 50’s are jabbed yet again then we might allow Christmas – just f off you ignorant bunch.

I don’t remember when a booster was trialled. Can anyone show me the results of the trial? My memory isn’t what it used to be.

So, get your THIRD jab. If you don’t drop dead immediately, then your odds of a serious adverse reaction in the next few days go up dramatically. Let’s say you do survive the jab. For the first 10 days or so, you’d better hide behind the sofa as your immune system will be knocked out and if you get Covid-19, you’re in trouble. Then your immune systems recovers from the jab and for the next 211 days (or thereabouts) you’ll be “protected” against the virus. But if you DO get Covid-19, and you survive it, then you’re truly screwed as the hospitals will have nowhere to discharge the elderly to, having fired another 60 000 care workers who refuse to get the jab that doesn’t stop them from getting infected and from spreading the virus anyhow.

Assuming that you survive your encounter with Covid-19 and your encounter with the NHS, you’re now just waiting for the 3rd jab to lose effectiveness so that you can start the whole process over again with your FOURTH jab.

Rinse. Repeat. Forever.

Is he threatening people? Most people are declining because the experimental biologicals, simply don’t work. People are becoming aware that repeatedly injecting spike protein into your body is a very bad thing. Researcher after researcher and brave doctors are finally speaking out against these experimental biologicals. They are the ones seeing the dreadful adverse events and deaths. Mr Javid do your homework. Please do not spread misinformation. In this situation it could cause the death of someone.

I emailed Sajid Javid with a list of questions which gave him the opportunity to validate his claims about the need for the jab. He failed to respond. I asked my MP to secure a response from Javid. My MP failed to reply. By default therefore they are unable to justify and substantiate the Government narrative, thus proving its all part of the Big Lie.

Perhaps Mr Javid you could illuminate us proletarians the scientific basis on which you base you claims. Sorry Sir. while you were immersed in Politics and banking some of us spent a lifetime treating patients and publishing scientific articles and consider that not only are you misguided and wrong but appears to be devoid of the single most vital contribution to your statements -Evidence!

Re: Because they focus the immune system on fighting off the threat, thereby leaving other flanks exposed. I had shingles after both of mine. I don’t intend to have another.
The falling efficacy of the vaccines does not asymptotically approach zero (which would mean that vaccines merely lose effectiveness over time). It goes straight through zero and then goes dangerously negative (which means the vaccines become toxic to the immune system). Then it becomes increasingly negative in a linear manner week on week. If this continues then the vaccines will completely destroy the part of your immune system which deals with Covid by the end of January.
This may well result in more cases of Shingles, HPV, Herpes, Epstein Barr, Endometriosis and other viral infections – https://www.nbc12.com/2021/10/15/reports-shingles-outbreaks-not-directly-linked-covid-19-vaccine/
So if you take a booster shot, these figures show that you are giving yourself an even faster progressive form of AIDS (after an initial few months of effectiveness)
Does any of the above make any sort of sense to you?

Retirement usually means being stuck at home because of age, health or financial reasons, so a winter lock down is really for younger people who don’t have the insecurities of older age
Retirement is more about having made your nest, during your lifetime and having the time left (waiting to die) to enjoy it.
That is my take on getting old – but then I don’t live in England (left 51 years ago – never to return) anymore and the exchange rate here, is far less strong than the US$ or the Pound Sterling, so I can’t say how things are for the retired in your country – a long time,not my country.
Bugger, it was overcrowded when I left 51 years ago, so I can’t imagine how overcrowded it is there now, for all but a few who can afford a large estate to keep the rest of you out.

Myocarditis cases in the US 10 thousand. Long discussion on cardiac injury and the spike persists in the body post vax for up to 15 months. Post vax myocarditis very dangerous, post natural infection any harm is minimal

Coronavirus was dead to begin with, of which there was no doubt.
It was Christmas Eve and Javid finished his work ignoring everyone who wished him a merry Christmas with a quick “bah humbug”, after giving his assistant, Joe Public, Christmas Day off and then changing his mind at the last minute. When he finally reached home as he reached into his pocket for the key, the door handle took the form of a coronavirus. This frightened Javid so much that he was tossing and turning, unable to sleep, then he heard the sound of wailing and the ghost of Coronavirus appeared. The apparition warned Javid that he would be visited by three ghosts, the ghost of vaccinations past, the ghost of vaccinations present and the most important ghost of vaccinations yet to come.

So hang on, the young get blackmailed on the basis that they must take the vaccine to protect others, whereas the old and vulnerable get told that if they don’t get the vaccine they will be evil bed blockers who will crash the NHS?

But if the last part was true (which it isn’t) then the vaccine works, in which case why do they young need to take it to protect others?

Please stop trying to make sense of it, slave, just do as you’re told. Get jabbed repeatedly to protect others from protecting each other’s grannies from protecting themselves. It’s simple.

Took the words out of my mouth. The word that also comes to mind is ‘sinister’. Due to government fear mongering people are jabbing up due to fear of the (over hyped) virus, fear of ‘the rules/law’, fear of losing their job or simply to go on holiday. Sinister.
By contrast many are not jabbing up despite the risk to liberty.

I hear that publicans are being advised not to over-order beer supplies for the Christmas period, with a quiet word having been had with the brewers not to over-brew …

It will make no difference how many people get jabbed or re-jabbed. I remain convinced that lockdown will be announced by the middle of this month.

How can they work it? The legal position is that police have no access to your medical records without your consent.
Been there done that. Gave my consent because it was to my advantage, excused me from Court when they wanted me to be a hostile witness against a friend ( rightly aquited).

Does anyone else feel that they’ve lost some momentum? Feels like it’ll be hard to maintain the ‘pandemic of the unvaccinated’ line that has been pushed in the States. And this is surely required to bring about the segregation we’ve seen in Australia, NZ and parts of Europe. They haven’t done a very good job of turning us against each other here in the UK, have they?

They tell so many lies and make so many false promises that eventually people get fed up of it

They even lie when there is no need, it’s as if they just can’t help themselves

They lie because it has always worked for them. Lying got them where they are

I suspect they would suffer an acute adverse reaction if they told the truth

I can’t help feeling that the virus just hasn’t done what the authors of the plandemic wanted it to. This is a virus that is suppressed to be such a threat that we need to change our entire way of life. Even Normies can surely see by now that this is just absurd…

That’s great to hear. Similar story in my circle, my mother-in-law who was formerly staunch covidian and fell out with me about it in early 2020 recently performed an about turn, telling my wife and I that she thought we’d made the right decision and she hoped the injections she’d had wouldn’t do her any harm. No chance of a booster. Remarkable. It was the speech given by Dr Peter Doshi last week that pushed her over the edge. That was a game changer.

just keep on shoveing it in. So latest tale of horror, Care worker who did not want to lose her job healthy aged 52, First injection next day rushed to hospital. 3 blood clots, they managed to remove 2 the third in her leg, could not sort ladies leg has to come off below the knee. You won’t read about that in the MSM, and it will have zero effect along with all the other injuries and deaths in persuading this Government, the medical establishment or the Pharma to call a halt to this madness,
