Winston, this is confusing for a poor older man. My G.P. asks me (well it's a strong suggestion actually) if I have had the vaccine yet when I visit for my prescriptions, my local political leaders are telling me they are safe and effective and the only way out. Who am I to believe? These faces I know or these world famous experts?

Actually, now I think of it, I usually end up telling my doctor what's wrong with me and what I need, I didn't even vote for these political people and never heard of their bureaucrats before. I think I'll go with the experts, they probably know what they are talking about. Thanks for your clarifying voice.

Keep in mind, my dear Mr Carrington, that your GP is not an expert in these matters and your local member is far from being an expert.

Indeed, that reminds me of the 3 doctors who went on a hike, when they come across some tracks. The first one quickly says "Let's get out of here, those are mountain lion tracks." The second one says "Don't be silly, those are deer tracks." The third one says "I think you're both wrong, but I'm no expert" right before they all got hit by a train

Good lesson for today Mr Charrington! If only they had been vaccinated.
