It's worth remembering - especially as reporting verges on the hysterical
at times - the placebo effect is very, very real.

Quite, although in the case of my mate and his Mrs (I don't know of
their friend), I would have thought (but could be wrong of course)
that they are both fairly pragmatic / realistic / healthy / sensible
people and neither hypochondriacs and reasonably fit (for retirees,
daily 3 mile walk etc).

They were given the appointments, went at their allotted time, had
whatever jab they were given and it was job done. No fears or other
considerations that I sensed in discussion with him.

I'm sure you are right in that all the negative hype is both stopping
some people from having it and making them believe they are reacting
to it though.
