British Prime Minister Boris Johnson received his first dose of the AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine on Friday and urged the public to do the same, saying “he did not feel a thing.”

Johnson, 56, received his vaccine at the same hospital where almost a year ago he was put in an intensive care unit and given oxygen via a tube in his nose after he contracted the virus and fell seriously ill. He later said he was so sick that plans were drawn up on how to announce his death.

“I literally did not feel a thing. It was very good, very quick,” Johnson said after receiving the injection at St Thomas’ Hospital in London. “I cannot recommend it too highly, everybody when you do get your notification to go for a jab, please go and get it, it is the best thing for you, best thing for your family and for everyone else.”

Pictures showed the prime minister wearing a black mask, a shirt and tie with his sleeve rolled up while a nurse gives him the vaccine.

Britain broke its record for the most coronavirus shots given out in one day on Friday and almost half of all adults have received one dose, making it one of the fastest countries in the world to roll out a vaccine program.

This success has helped the ruling Conservatives regain the lead over the main opposition Labour Party in opinion polls after the prime minister last year was accused of acting too slowly to stop the spread of the virus.

Johnson received his vaccine as European countries on Friday resumed using the AstraZeneca shot after regulators said its benefits outweighed any risks following recent reports of blood clots.

Countries including Germany and France reversed their decision to temporarily pause its use after reports of about 30 cases of rare brain blood clots sent scientists and governments scrambling to determine any link.

The AstraZeneca vaccine, developed by scientists at the University of Oxford, has also been at the centre of tensions between Britain and the European Union, after Brussels expressed anger over the lack of deliveries of the shot coming from Britain.

Scientists are exploring several possibilities that might explain at least 18 reports of extremely rare blood clots in the brain that occurred in individuals in the days and weeks after receiving the AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine.

Johnson had Covid.

He doesn’t need to take the vaccine.

Exactly. If anyone in the world already has sufficient antibodies, it’s him after his near-death bout with covid last year. This is a purely performative gesture from an annoying political hack.

Have they determined if any immunity to COVID-19 is developed, and how long it lasts?

You will over the course of 36-60 MONTHS your immune system will MISFIRE and small things like simple colds will KILL you.

I just took 50 grams of acetaminophen, and I didn’t feel a thing!

It’s the second dose that is likely to put him in the hospital again with Cytokine Storm, an over reaction of the immune system which can lead to pneumonia.

[...] everybody when you do get your notification to go for a jab [...]

How does that notification read? "Under penalty of imprisonment, you are hereby notified..."?

Were you trying to commit suicide by taking 50 grams of acetaminophen?

LOL.
I think you meant 50 milligrams.
50 grams will probably kill you, liver first.

I didn’t feel a thing, he said, just this odd urge to purchase an electric car, Microsoft products, and embrace the new religion, whatever it turns out to be.

No one “important” will ever take that poison. It’s for us little people. Any politician who says they took any of those “vaccines” is lying.

Nah. It just tells you you are now entitled to get your vaccination (outside of vulnerable groups, it's being done in age-based cohorts here), along with a website address to book your first and second appointments or a phone number to call if you prefer that. No threat, no consequences if you don't sign up.

Had my first dose a couple of weeks ago and my wife had hers on Sunday. Quick and efficient, in and out in 10 minutes. No side effects apart from a sore arm.

“i-did-not-feel-a-thing”
That’s what she said..😜
Seems like they might want to just monitor those who had it and were really sick to figure out the immunity vectors instead of sabotaging the body’s natural works.

Of course he didn’t feel a thing; it was an injection of distilled water; performance art.
