Re: Vaccine (Good) News
I mean, it could all change just like *that*, as we know, but for now I'm accepting that for now the only way I'll get an earlier second jab is as a walk-in.
Hurrah for Mr C!

Apparently 6 months yesterday since Margaret Keenan had her jab. Now rolling out to 25yr olds. What humans can do when they throw their effort, money and goodwill at something is amazing.

S (26) booked his today First this Thursday and second on 27th August. I teared up a bit when he messaged to tell me - I must have been more worried than I thought.

That's great Edith!
I got my second appointment in today - 21st June so 8 weeks after the first which is better than I thought!

I got my second appointment through today too, also 8 weeks after the first. I was surprised to see the blue envelope.

That’s cheered me up no end, sal and Heebie! My first jab floored me for a week and if the second was 12 weeks later it’d be a bit too close to my due date for my liking.

Re: Vaccine (Good) News
Excellent news, Edith, Sal and Heebie!
I just rang the pharmacy that run the local place and they're doing AZ walk-ins next week all day on Monday and Tuesday. Monday morning, I know where I'll be.

Re: Vaccine (Good) News
Can you remind me when you had your first, Rebs? Also, is it the church?

Re: Vaccine (Good) News
I had my first on April 14th so I'm exactly 8 weeks today. She said they're offering second AZ doses to anyone over 40 and over 8 weeks.
Yep, the church. Oh and there may be a Wednesday session as well, plus they're still doing the end of day leftovers thing but that's more pot luck.

We’ve got the same here, Rebs; AZ walk ins for anyone over 40 and/or 8 weeks post first jab.

Re: Vaccine (Good) News
It's a good local solution to the rigidity of the national booking system now that second doses have become more urgent.

Re: Vaccine (Good) News
I am double jabbed.
I caught a post on Nextdoor this morning saying that the church place were doing walk ins today too so we stopped just now on the way back from my Mum's and bingo!

Hurrah Rebs! Mr C is now double jabbed too. He was in and out in less than 5 mins, very impressive.
