Of course the Covid vaccine you received is approved in the UK, unless you were part of the clinical trial for one that hasn’t been? Were you?

If you are happy to be better informed, then why are you making an utterly ridiculous request?
NOBODY has suggested for one instant that those things don't make a difference. Number of contacts absolutely makes a significant difference. There is less good evidence for vitamin D, but it appears very likely it does make a difference.
But neither of those have any relevance to the point that there is absolutely and utterly no doubt whatsoever that being vaccinated makes you less likely to catch covid AND less likely to transmit it.

Rubbish. Deaths per million cyclists have been way fewer than deaths from Covid per million population over the last 18 months.

Since you clearly don't have any idea about rational debate, it might be a good idea to stop digging.

Yes, it most certainly is.
Unless you got it at some back-street place unofficially.
The Covid vaccinations being given in this country by the NHS are all fully approved.

Nothing you have posted in this thr4ead suggests you might be pro-vaccine, even though you have had the two initial shots.

What, exactly, do you believe he is saying "no" to?
If it is to the stupid question of asking him to provide evidence that contacts & vitamin D make no difference, then of course it is a "No".
But then nobody here has at any point posted anything to suggest they might not make a difference, so why would anybody be expecting to be able to find any evidence for something they don't believe?

I'm with you, Postman. Had the flu jab yesterday, now I am waiting for the booster. We're on the same best-chance-path.

Thanks for the reminder; I'll book mine. I get it free because I have Asthma and anything bronchial can turn quite nasty.
It's a case of prevention being considerably better than cure; Last time I was off sick for six weeks and needed treatment for months. I've noticed that the more I ride a bike the less I catch a cold/flu and the milder they are. As soon as I started riding regularly I went from about 6 colds a year and a sort of permacold in winter to two colds a year. Now it's a bad year if I get more than a mild cold for a few weeks in winter.
