Which vaccine did you have Spitty?

Glad you feel better today, maybe take a couple of paracetamol if you still feel uncomfortable.

I hope the side effect is done with now. I have heard of a few people who have them. I had one a few days after the jab that felt as if it was flu. It was quite short lived. An early night and OK in the morning.

I hope you are feeling better today. Side-effects (providing not too serious) have got to be better than getting the dreaded Covid-19 virus.

Re: Covid-19 Vaccinations

I was booked in for my vaccination (Oxford-AstraZenica) at 11am this morning. Arrived at 1055 to see a long queue outside (in the freezing cold), presumably all booked in for the same time.
It moved quite quickly, though, and when I got in I saw that there must have been nearly a dozen stations. Called to one of them, stripped (well, just down to my short-sleeved shirt), a few questions and the vaccine banged in.
No waiting for 15 minutes in case of reactions, just told to bugger off (politely, of course) and would be called for second dose in 10 to 12 weeks. All very efficient, though. I can see why we are leading the world for numbers vaccinated!
Home now and as for reactions...
nothing...
yet!

Re: Covid-19 Vaccinations

Just got my letter as we were eating lunch. Checked out the local vac centre through Swiftqueue and booked one for 1410 today, no shortage of appointments at the moment by the looks of it.

Thank you Mags.
I hope that we all benefit from this well-organised vaccination programme with the minimum of problems.
I have to say that I feel proud to be British when we can accomplish things like this.

I have nothing but praise for our NHS and everyone else helping in this mammoth task - they all deserve a medal!
