I got the call

[trixie88]

I got a text earlier inviting me to book the vaccine. Booked online for a week on Tuesday.

I'm 61 and have Diabetes (type 2) so I presume that is why I'm being included. Julie however has not received her invitation yet and she is far more vulnerable than I am. She did receive a letter back in April telling her she must shield so I don't have a clue what is going on.

though diabetes cam under the CEV listing rob........lady next door diabetes and was told she was in the CEV category,,,,,,,,and to shield etc.........her daughter is a doctor and even she doesnt go in the house.............
also im sure its on the gov list for cev.........????

Not sure Trixie, I've never had any letters re the jab until today.

I'm Type 2 though so probably Type 1 is CEV?

Local mate , my age, type 1 hasn't been given a date.

22 year old over the road, type 1 had hers last weekend.

Perhaps it's ladies first. Bit like the good olde days.

Anyway, just gave him a call to let him know no one cares about him.

Had ours at our local surgery this morning, very efficient. Getting closer to the time when we can all go out and play

I had mine Weds, Thurs got a letter from Kirklees Council saying my other half could have the jab as they classed her as a unpaid carer. She was vaccinated today. They seem to be on top of it around here thankfully. We had no idea about any of this happening.

It must be very frustrating, but with 10's of millions of people some are going to slip through the net, a friend who is 64 and in remission, and his wife who is 61 and no problems, have both had jab already.

We both received a letter this morning telling us that we can book an appointment, went online but the next available slot is Sat 13th of February at 11.25, I suppose I can wait

Derby Arena, easy access and large carpark 20 minutes away

As soon as I booked mine I booked Maggy's and it is also at the same time so that is easier, we both have our second one booked for May 1st within 10 mins of each other,

 

[st3v3]

I’m in exactly that category but things are not so good up here and it looks like I will have to wait possibly weeks as the rate is due to slow down soon.

Get Wully to give wee Nicky a ring. I'm sure he can convince her to sort you out Bill lol.

 

[Tezza33]

He would probably smoke her for Sunday lunch

Just sent a copy of a letter from the consultant at the Royal Free Hospital in London. The letter states that Julie most definitely is vulnerable and at high risk of becoming extremely ill if she contracts the virus.

Hopefully that will get things moving.

So sorry to hear that Trev thoughts are with you and your family

These figures from 7th February seem to concur with how people are reporting things on here.

All done and dusted, very efficient set up in a large arena with a lot of vaccination stations, a constant stream of people coming in but no waiting.
We had the AZ vaccine

I must admit I thought my group was due in October

 

[maingate]

No problems with me.

I felt a small prick last Sunday, felt a little queer on Tuesday, otherwise an uneventful week.

You were told to stay away from boys.

And why do folk always bring lucozade and grapes to hospitals.

And why do folk always bring lucozade and grapes to hospitals.

Tradition.

The lucozade is for the poorly person.
The grapes are for the visitor(s) to eat
