It should be a lot faster and safer, only Linux users who were just touched by a plastic placebo instead of the jab (for security reasons) will be slowerSo will my internet be faster after my second jab?
I just want to know where they're vaccinating all these Romans?

I think the centres are moving a bit faster than the smaller GP practice hubs but in theory, you should hear from your GP shortly after getting your letter and they'll get you booked into a local GP hub. My surgery comes under a local hub with 4 other practices. I decided I wasn't patient enough to wait, so booked online and drove to a centre at a hospital... about a 15-20 minute drive away. There's no problem driving after the jab by the way... they just ask you to wait 15 minutes before driving, to make sure you don't have a rare, odd reaction. Fingers crossed you hear soon Caz
No guarantees, but I suspect it depends on relative load. If your local hubs are over-subscribed and there is spare capacity half an hour away, it would make sense to offer appointments at the more remote centre. When Jan had her jab, our local centre was chock-a-bloc; when I had mine, there were a few slots locally. AFAICT, the booking system doesn't offer centres on dates when all slots there are booked.The thing is though that my GP is in cahoots with a load of other practices in the region and their mutual hub is even further away than the nearest I am being offered by the national service. BUT we have two large hubs in my local town, one at the big hospital. So I can't understand why they can only offer me appointments that will take half an hour or more to drive each way.
I'm not bothered about driving but surely it doesn't make sense when we are told not to travel any further than necessary?
Have you rung up about it?I'm Tier 4, one of my close friends who is Tier 5 has had his jab at the local hospital yesterday. It just doesn't make any sense to me.
Oh Caz, you're way overdue now! A couple of weeks back, everyone in tiers 1-4 were told to get in touch directly if they'd been missed. If you've called your GP and can only get a distant appointment, why not call the hospital direct? Or pop in to reception and explain the situation... unless you're shielding? I've heard lots of tales where qualifying people have been slotted in on the spot... the quicker the better really because it takes up to 3 weeks for protection to properly kick in. Fingers crossed for youI'm Tier 4, one of my close friends who is Tier 5 has had his jab at the local hospital yesterday. It just doesn't make any sense to me.
Pricked, Pfizer, Cohert 7, no problems.
Where I had mine, they were only asking people to wait if they were actually driving themselves home but everyone else could just leave. Even drivers were allowed to go and sit in their cars for the 15 minutes if they preferred but most people opted to stay in the warm, in the distanced, post-vaccine area.Forgot to say before, after the Pfizer jab today i was asked to wait for 15 minutes before leaving and then was still asked if i felt ok.
Wife had the AstraZeneca jab 2 weeks back at the same little health centre but was not asked to wait and was allowed to leave straight away.
