Poor bastards.

My dad's neighbour is a GP and he told me he'll refuse any vaccine which hasn't been tested for at least 5 years. If they say he has to have it he says he'll fake an illness and go off work on sick leave for 4 years (which apparently isn't unusual in the NHS).

Wow 4 years sick leave? That's a pretty sweet deal.

I don't think he could really get it. GPs sort of run their own businesses funded by the government rather than being employed directly by the NHS. However I guess that means he's his own boss so maybe it does work.
