Based on my 16 years of University Education (including degrees in Medicine and Surgery, and Physics and Mathematics, and having done lots of Statistics electives) and the data of the last three years, I have booked my 5th COVID vaccination for Friday 18th March.
Karl Stefanovic: “I’m concerned if I have another dose, I may get complications. I have seen reports of fit healthy people just dropping. It’s not established whether the vaccine causes some of the heart issues but it’s more a worry than getting Covid.”
