Had an appointment for my 2nd jab yesterday
I turned up and they were closed... What's the point of giving me an appointment then shutting the gates and not telling me about it? No text,email, call... ridiculous, communication doesn't seem to exist in the NHS.
I'll have to rebook, but I rang 119 and they said they have to wait 24hrs before they can do that... Why? Very strange system in place. What difference does the full day make to making an appointment?
They said I could check online for any walk in centres available...I checked that.. turns out they're only using Pfizer and they are only using it for first jabs only..
So to sum up, imo the NHS's right doesn't know what it's left is doing.

Well, you have done your bit, maybe they were short staffed which is the probable cause.Steve30000 wrote: β07 Aug 2021, 08:10

I hope you don't go to the match today with you only having one jab, you underclass

Apparently not because there are plans for a booster very soon.Steve30000 wrote: β07 Aug 2021, 22:16This 2nd one had better mean the end of it.Sunderland Nut wrote: β07 Aug 2021, 15:01 I hope you don't go to the match today with you only having one jab, you underclass

I'd say that depends on your age.

And every year with each new wave but it could be a few times a year (that's just my opinion )

You will not be far wrong because they will not be able to wipe it out so it will keep coming back like flu.Sunderland Nut wrote: β08 Aug 2021, 12:15And every year with each new wave but it could be a few times a year (that's just my opinion )
I might have the day off today!

The boosters will be for the vulnerable, the rest of us will have a fair amount of antibodies through natural infection or a vaccine.cam wrote: β08 Aug 2021, 12:30You will not be far wrong because they will not be able to wipe it out so it will keep coming back like flu.Sunderland Nut wrote: β08 Aug 2021, 12:15
