No, they are not. Risk assessments are always based on sound evidence, often scientifically determined. They involve evaluating everything that is known, against that which remains unknown, and determining where the balance of probabilities lie.

If any kind of responsible risk assessment of the Covid vaccines was made, as many must have been, then it would certainly weigh heavily in favour of the benefits outweighing any risk.

Your "personal judgement" is not a risk assessment. It is a fearful, emotional responses to new developments from someone whose instinct is to show a lack of trust.

Conspiracy theorists then support and amplify this fear and lack of trust. It's very sad to witness.

Here we go again! When faced with an uncomfortable truth, you turn to the personal insult. Not only is this against the site rules, it is yet further evidence of a complete lack of substance to your position.

I tend to go off of fruitcake after a while.

It's been quite sunny today, but windy and getting colder after some very mild days.

You do your own risk assessment. If I had anything to do with it, I would have you arrested at the Tamar for aiding and abetting the criminal lack of common sense on a website.

Mind you, as Jethro passed away this week, you could try your hand at being a comedian. On second thoughts, perhaps not.

No fruitcake in Cornwall. We eat "Hevva" here.

I can tell you don't eat proper fruitcake in the way you trot out the same old repetitive nonsense on every subject under the sun. You must make your own. Just mix some selfishness flour with some acidic bile, bake it, and out pops your opinion.

You should heed the advice given by many posters here, if you cannot bring yourself round to listening to me.

Your approach serves no-one at all. Ultimately, not even yourself.
