Flu jab

[Fiftyyearsandcounting]

I've been called up for a jab next week. It's a "Drive-Through" in the surgery car park. Instructions are "Stay in the car and extend right arm out the window".

People get paid for administering the flu jab, go get it at your local surgery this gives them the money. Getting it from your pharmacy gives them the money. Privatisation in action.

Is this in response to my post?
I’m in Canada mate.

I think so mate but also it depends if your asthmatic or have various health issues I think anyone who’s sharing a house who’s on the NHS shielding list , go to see your local pharmacist there’ll have more information mate ...even if theres a charge it’s worth it bud.

Like I said - GO TO YOUR LOCAL SURGERY - give them the money; keep it in the NHS

Anyone who has any health problems should make sure this year of all years you go and get it, mine is 09.30 tomorrow so if you have been advised to have it or any member of your family has make sure you get it done

Should of had mine yesterday but tested positive for covid Saturday.

Depends who pays for the jab, company paid for mine and can only get it at Boots, works both ways good that the tax payer doesn't always have to pay.

Isn't it only free for over 50s?

Free for everyone at the drs , dont know about the chemist this year

Everyone should ring up tomorrow as the appts will be packed out and they cant do it like they did before with a hundred waiting at one time

Our local surgery have said just rock up on 3 and 10 October and you can have a jab - no appointment needed.
