Covid vaccinations will start being given to patients from GP surgeries in England as part of the next stage of the rollout of the programme.

GP practices in more than 100 locations will receive their first deliveries of the vaccine later, the NHS said.

Some will start vaccinating on Monday afternoon, with the majority getting under way on Tuesday.

I'm hoping my mum didn't miss out on her first dose because her practice notified patients for the 200 doses they had ( yrs thats all) by text!!

She doesn't have a mobile.

TalkSport just reported that a German hospital has had to dispose of tens of THOUSANDS of vaccines due to them not being kept at a low enough temperature ..

I was slighted when I mentioned my concerns weeks ago that I had doubts that the vaccines would all go smoothly - as mistakes happen ..

To be fair Zizu, I think people took issue with your suggestion that qualified nurses wouldn't be competent enough to administer the vaccines... adequate storage and transport is another issue - and has always been a concern.

Maybe I didn’t explain it well enough .. my point was always that people make mistakes... I did mention that they were understaffed / overworked ten years ago and things have gotten a lot worse over the last ten years
