1st jab:-
Day 1 to 8 shows a doubling of cases as people drop masks and distance rules.
Day 9 to 14 gradual rise to approx 40% effective
Day 15 to 21 gradual rise to approx 70% effective.

2nd jab:-
Approx 2 weeks after to get 88% effective against being hospitalized and 99% effective against death.

Wife and I are on the Oxford University study and have had 8 PCR tests each since October and in addition my Wife has to do 2 lateral flow tests every week, all have been negative. Now we've had both jabs we have been requested to do a blood test to see what level of antigens we have.

I had my AstraZeneca jab at Elland Road yesterday (prefer to go there to watch my beloved Leeds) and I’ve felt like I’ve had a mild hangover since. My wife had her jab at the same time and has had no after affects at all, not even a sore arm.
