Guessing she was joking given they’re both well over 60 ?

Our son is 34 ( in Florida) and scheduled for his next week

Think it might depend on the State, I have cousins in Mass and they are just starting on the 60s there

Seems to be by area here too. Our surgery was booking in any age a couple weeks back as got all over 35s done apparently. Yet seems, some places are only onto 55s and such

I got my letter sent to my scottish address, my vaccine is the 14th april up in scotland.


I went to a vaccine centre inside the crystal palace ground on Wednesday to see if I could get it.done down here..

The actual head doctor came out and said he would do it there and then..

I politely declined, stating I had 3 other households to visit. Yet i left him assured, that i was assured that i could walk into any vac centre down here and get it done.

I called the nhs Scotland number when I got home that night, and can only say I was met by a yawning helpless mess, that could only say we have no correspondence records with nhs england..

Are you registered with a GP here Parm, they might be able to help? Mr C registered 6 weeks ago and is still waiting for his number to be issued

user104658 04-04-2021 07:32 AM

You could just have got it done parm, it takes like 3 minutes and any side effects usually wouldn’t come until the next day so you’d have been fine to go back to work :hee:

a big breakthrough here now, it seems we haven't been giving the correct amounts of the AZ vaccine, but way too much in one jab :facepalm: no wonder there was blood clot problem :umm2: and that calls itself doctors over here

Maybe that's what's causing the blood clots.
Wrong dosage?
Because here in the UK we haven't had major problems with it.

If you got a letter you can book your appointment online.
They have a website.

I didn't want to wait, my GP is way too slow :laugh:
I did it online as soon as I got my letter from the NHS

my GP hub is only doing the elderly and vulnerable, they just direct you to your nearest vaccination centre. Anyone should be able to book in at any vaccination centre, provided they are within an eligible group

Yes. It's faster and easier to do it online.

That’s only for England though, if he has a Scottish NHS number he can’t do it

We will book it online, he is not due yet as under 50, the problem is he has never registered with a GP so does not have NHS number which you need to book online, so hence the registration after all these year in the UK :laugh:

i never remember my nhs number, so its not needed to book, they gave it to me on vaccination day and i promptly forgot it again :laugh:

Cherie 04-04-2021 10:40 AM

Can I just say the Drs receptionist has been quite disbelieving as well, like sorry for being in good health :umm2:

He has literally had two tetanus jabs at A and E and that’s it

Obviously if you are in the system already, but he isn’t ...I have checked with 911 and you have to be registered with a GP and have been issued with an NHS number so they can update your record, how else would they keep track of who has had it :shrug: they checked and couldn’t find him on the system so pointed us to the GP

i had to re-register with my doctor a couple of years ago because i hadn't visited in the previous 10 years. I don't know why good health means that they can boot you off ... that isn't supposed to be what it's about

Yes, he should register with a local gp
Then he will get an NHS number.

I lost my NHS number as well. But I have it on the letters the NHS wrote me.

Cherie 04-04-2021 05:13 PM

60% of adults first jabbed

10% fully vaccinated
