00:00
Yeah I do, yeah.
00:02
And is Covid still a worry for you? Do you still feel like people need to...
00:07
It's not really a worry for me. I have had it and it went great.
00:12
I wouldn't like it again. So I think it's the same as anything.
00:16
If there's risk of feeling like that again I wouldn't mind. I'd have a job.
00:20
How much would you be willing to pay for the job?
00:23
I reckon as much as a blue-jack cost, which is I think no more than £20.
00:29
So yeah, about £20.
00:32
And do you think that as many people as possible should carry on getting the boosters?
00:38
I suppose if they can afford it, that's the thing isn't it?
00:42
If they're going to start charging for it, it's going to be trickier.
00:46
I suppose if they give pensions free blue jams, that kind of thing,
00:52
it could help out people who need it.
00:54
But yeah, generally I think people should be able to afford £20.
01:00
Yes I would if it was necessary and a payment was needed. Yes I would do that.
01:08
And is there a maximum amount that you would be willing to pay?
01:11
Oh I don't know. It would depend what the maximum amount was.
01:14
If they said it was £4,000 I might decide to get another booster.
01:19
What do you think is an acceptable amount to charge?
01:21
Oh I think a maximum of £10, but in certain circumstances obviously it would be far too much wouldn't it?
01:30
And do you think that in order for the booster to work,
01:35
maybe lots of people need to agree to pay this amount? What's your opinion?
01:39
Well I don't know. Would we be having a referendum on this matter?
01:43
Or how would it be instituted?
01:46
Yeah you can't make everyone mandated to pay a certain amount.
01:49
No, no quite. So you know, there would surely have to be some agreement from somewhere.
01:54
Are you still worried about getting Covid today?
01:59
Well I'm not particularly worried, but I don't particularly want it either.
02:02
So I always use hand gel when I'm wearing masks.
02:05
Except today when I'm speaking to you.
