Flu and Covid Booster Jabs

I had a letter this morning from our local medical centre notifying me that an appointment has been booked for Pfizer covid booster and flu jabs on Saturday 25th Sept 

It states that people qualify 6 months after their 2nd jab.  My second jab was Jan 6th so 8 months will have elapsed for me.

Just checked, my 2nd jab was 30th April.

My 2nd Pfizer jab was the 30th March. I might get a call in a month or so.

There is an awful lot of confusion about these booster jabs now, I don't know what to believe!

So when was your first covid jab Alan ?? If your second was Jan 6th

I was a day out in my first post - it should read Jan 7th for my second jab and Dec 17th for the first.

Wow you must have been one of the very first to have your first jab Alan.
We get our flu jab on Sept 26th but no mention of the covid booster.

I received another letter from the NHS to advise me that my covid booster and flu jabs (which they really do refer to as "floosters") booked for Sept 25th has had to be re-scheduled due to the National supply delay with the flu vaccines.

They gave me a new date of October 7th - which is bang in the middle of our next holiday.

You are advised to notify them by Email that you are unable to attend and when you are available , they then send you a letter with another date. they also provide a mobile phone number but warn it is usually swamped with callers and there is a very long wait - so I sent an Email. I guess the NHS contact is someone working from home - hence the mobile number to contact.

you should be so lucky ya don't get constant sunshine - seen my local GP lovely female who specializing in rubbing her hands all over ya body looking for squamous celled carcinoma - she found a few but a larger one on left forehead. She was keen to have a go so was I!! - all done - few weeks later called me - yes they still make personal calls to their favorite patients!

it looks like it didn't get it all and you'll need to go in to local hospital in 3 mths time and have local surgery - wham bam thank you Ma'am. good efficient male indian surgeon [they send them up from the city and I am not sure they enjoy it much?] but all seemed well - then a few weeks later furtive calls from weird mumbling doctors to the effect that they hadn't got it all so I would need to go in again - months wait then in same procedure - local injected and knife inserted. So that is three attempts by what I assume are competent dr's and surgeons - I AM NOT GOING BACK FOR A FOURTH TIME!! - RATHER DIE OF IT!

Uh dear Davo - what a palaver. 

My wife is prone to the same thing and has several removal procedures  - one close to her eye where they used skin off her eyelids for skin grafts. That wasn't very pleasant.  The most persistent one was right on the end of her nose - over 5 months they had three goes at it and it took a 4th and more radical operation under anaesthetic to remove. It has changed the shape of her nose significantly and she is no longer able to poke it into the business of others so deeply.

well either the carcinomas are invisible or the surgeons are blind one of the other?
