I asked Gav about this and he said it's going to be 24 days between his dad's first and second jab

My auntie is booked for her second Pfizer jab on 31st March, will let you know Zizu if she has any side affects, she had none after the first

I thought Gavs dad had none but apparently his arm was really sore for the day afterwards, not normal jab sore more than that. He was fine after 24 hours though. They did tell him that the side effects might be worse after the second jab (he had the Pfizer one)

I think I would like some minor side affects so I know it's worked :worry:

the thing is we are hyper sensitive to anything that has changed after getting the jab, so i'm sure you will find some side effect to reassure you :laugh:

i'm 3 weeks in now exactly, so i'm very upbeat now. I think it's all going to heat up with the EU from today, so i think there is going to be quite a disruption to future vaccinations

Do you do any shopping etc for your aunt Cherie? Because my Dad was shielding and I do his shopping and go in his house, I can book mine now even though I've not been called. Am waiting for school to break up next week in case I do have any side effects but then I'm going to get jabbed :amazed:

No I live too far away from her :sad:

I heard on the radio this morning that people should book up as soon as they can as vaccinations are getting scarce.

pubs etc have the right to refuse to serve anyone already, its not any different from the under 18/21 check. I'm all for it, if it improves peoples confidence and safety going out

It's very different.

How do you GET "proof" :think:. GP's to be inundated with requests for letters? Good luck, people can't get a word with them for basic health needs currently :joker:.

That said... they could probably charge £30 a letter and make a killing.

I feel like if this was going to be "a thing", they should have handed out little certificates when you get jabbed. It's too late to start now, tens of millions have already been done! Guess they could do it with 2nd doses...

Nicky91 25-03-2021 01:29 PM

always remember, once u had the vaccine, ur stuck with it every year


and don't be too ''smug'' but still be cautious pls, we don't know if the vaccine works against the SA variant, i'm just saying this as friendly advice, i wouldn't want UK to go into third wave if you guys are now too careless


i'm sorry i ever criticized and slagging off the vaccine, it is a good start but now still you need to fight off the SA variant otherwise that one will gain the upper hand


and also the one mostly in my country NL, is the UK variant sorry not sorry, just the plain truth, the original covid strain is very low at the moment, overtaken by that one

but here they want to speed up vaccinations, and also giving more advice than ever to people to take the jab those who are still hesitant

That would be easily forged though, there is a suggestion it could form part of the NHS app

My son got a little card when he got his vaccine with a batch number on it, it states to keep it in your wallet or purse.. and bring it back for round 2!

From what I've read thus far, all indications are that the current vaccines are effective against the SA strain. I think there was a question mark over a Brazilian strain but again nothing thus far to say it isn't effective, just not proven that it is.

they have the data so they can do it retrospectively if they need to. My feeling is that they don't want to do it, but if business demands/needs it to get moving again they will oblige

Johnson has updated
what he said yesterday saying
first all need
a Vaccination.
Review on this, next month

But, I think
some Pubs may do
show your Vaccination pass.
