We’ve had notification and have booked our 2nd Booster for 9th April.
Looking forward to receiving it and being able to feel protected again when going out more and on holiday. We still wear our masks when shopping and when travelling on buses or trains.
Has anyone else booked their 2nd Booster yet or have you decided to give it a miss?
I had a letter before xmas from the local healthcare trust (Imperial College), saying I should have the 4th jab 3 months after the third, so it was due late Jan. So late Jan I contacted my GP practice who said they haven’t started 4th jabs yet, they’ll be in touch, but they haven’t. I don’t mind having it, if & when.
3-4 weeks ago I had the virus … very mild and my official isolation period end about a week ago. Perhaps I could ask again sometime soon about this 4th jab.
Talking to two elderly neighbours (85) and they have both received letters for the 4th jab and as has been the case since the first vaccine rollout NHS Lothian could not organise a piss up in a brewery. They have invited the two non drivers to go to Haddington for the jab, we live in Edinburgh, this would be a two bus trek to get there.
Edinburgh had the lowest rollout figures in the whole of Scotland purely because the health board could not organise local centres.
The health board hear me if they send me to some out of town centre, they wanted me to go to the Highland showground on the outskirts of Edinburgh and you can only get there by car.
This is so typical of the health boards woeful organisational skills.
My Son has had his 4th jab, the oncology sent a letter for him & Daughter took him down to the pop up clinic for it 2 weeks ago. Not heard from the health centre when I can have mine yet.
If this is the 4th jab then the Federal Government has approved a fourth dose for designated groups
The Commonwealth’s expert vaccine advisory group, ATAGI, has recommended extra COVID-19 vaccinations for people over the age of 65 and those who are immunocompromised.
Indigenous Australians over the age of 50 and people living in aged and residential care will also be offered another dose. The roll out commences on the 4th April.
Just back from having Booster 2, waited about 10 minutes before we had our jabs. There was a good turn out of Over 75s there.
This time we were given the Moderna vaccine instead of Pfiser which we had in previous vacs. No waiting around after, we were allowed to leave straight after.
My arm began aching during the evening and I came over very tired.
I don’t usually go to bed before midnight but last night I felt exhausted and crawled into bed before 10pm. Restless night.
