Had a look on Tameside NHS site doesn't seem to list any criteria or even mention the vaccination programme. Guess some areas are a lot more proactive than others

Just up on the Telegraph.

Johnson & Johnson single shot vaccine about to be submitted for MHRA approval. Based on Pfizer & AZ that takes around two weeks. 30 million doses ordered.

That's the one for me,I will pay for it no problem.

I'm 63 and went on the NHS booking site today, got an appointment next Saturday with a second late in May.

Pretty sure you can’t pay for it. You don’t get a choice.

out of interest mate, why is that the one for you, compared to the other vaccines?

Yes I went with my OH for moral support (not a fan of needles). Fantastically efficient and great to see the setup

If this is real, what are people’s thoughts on this from Microsoft? Personally think this is way too far and hope this doesn’t take off over here.

I personally know several people younger than me who’ve had the vaccine because their doctor surgery is just ploughing down the list. Rang my doctor who is sticking to waiting to be officially told to start inviting younger age groups.

There doesn’t appear to be an online booking system specifically for Bury NHS Covid jabs, so nothing to check on, unlike the Salford link.

Even more confused now

What's the big deal? It's just encouraging people to get tested. I don't see the reason not to get tested if it's free and convenient.

I think the issue if any is that (mega corp) Microsoft were involved. Any small app company could've made that app.

 

[Blue and still suffering]

Think it depends on your Doctors surgery in Bury as both me and my wife have been vaccinated and we are 60 and 61. Yet we have friends who are a couple of years older than us who haven't been contacted so far.

Which policy of vaccination are you basing that on, and what would be the point.

just a short term fix. not a bad idea.

There's several partners involved, I can not see anything dystopian about it whatsoever.
