A heated row among Jeremy Vine caller Julia, panellists Matthew Stadlen and Martin Daubney broke out on the show amid speculation about a new Government campaign to promote booster Covid
jabs. Broadcaster Matthew Stadlen accused Julia of “using the rest of us as guinea pigs”, while Julia’s “liberty” to choose whether to get vaccinated or not was being defended by Martin
Daubney. Calling on the show, Julia said: “I'm really happy that they have scraped the vaccine passport. “To me, it made no sense when those had just been a master football game and
festivals have happened, and then suddenly you can't go into a nightclub. “I am not an anti-Vaxxer by any means. My children are vaccinated, I am vaccinated. “I am just waiting until
the trials are over in 2023 to make my decision. I'm vaccinated against most since childhood.” Mr Stadlen interjected: “So you're using, Julia, the rest of us as your guinea pigs?
“I've had two vaccines and so long as it's less than two years' time, I don't drop dead, you'll be happy to have your own vaccine.” Julia said: “Surely that makes
more sense. “You've chosen to be a guinea pig, not me.” Mr Daubney then chipped in: “We have a government that wants to make guinea pigs out of children, on 12 to 15-year-olds.” Mr
Stadlen continued: “I haven't made the choice to be Julia’s genius pig. “I've made the choice to get protected so that I don't infect you Julia, or your mother or your father
or my mother or my father. “I wanted to get that jab in my arm as quickly as possible so that I would be less of a risk to society.” DON'T MISS: Julia answered: “That's a big
misconception. “You've just said you've been vaccinated, so you didn't infect other people well that's wrong.” Mr Stadlen responded: “you're absolutely right. You
can and in fact, six weeks after having had my second dose, I did become infected with the virus. “However, it was less likely that I would become infected than if I hadn't had any
vaccine.” The clash came hours before the UK's Chief Medical Office Chris Whitty recommended all 12 to 15-years-old be offered one dose of the Pfizer jab.
