    Interesting about the AZ vaccine - of the five in our family who have had our first dose, the only one with a notable bad reaction was DD, and she's the only one to have the AZ. However she's normally super-fit so I put it down to her immune system kicking in extra hard.
    I didn't realise the Pfizer vaccine is being given to all health care workers... I wonder why?

    Hope you have a good night's sleep.
    I think the Pfizer vaccine is the one which needs to be kept at a very low temperature so given mainly in a health setting. They ordered less doses of that compared to AZ which was approved later than the Pfizer one too and the AZ one does not need to be kept frozen. As I understand it the Pfizer was given to top priority groups which included health workers and the people vaccinated through the primary care providers. My brother and 85 year old mum and stepdad had that and they were vaccinated really early on. The mass vaccination centres have mainly AZ supplies. You have to have the same vaccine for both doses to be fully effective. Our GPS have run out of Pfizer here so have had to stop vaccinating until new supplies come in. 
    This is what I was trying to say 😀

    👏👏👏 to getting your 2nd jab and the X-ray. 🤞🤞for good results. 
    Your poor dd being poorly on her birthday....I know we can’t celebrate as usual but sorry she is feeling rough.
    I had the AZ yesterday - I don’t want to tempt fate but so far I just feel slightly tired with a very slightly sore arm......hopefully it’ll stay that way. They did say you can begin to react up to a week afterwards.

    Thanks Milann Im glad I've had my second jab and can now forget about it for a while. DD is feeling better today 😀 I do hope you don't get any side effects from the AZ vaccine,I don't think everyone has but there have definitely been quite a few

    I didn't wake up until 10am today 🙀I just can't get going in the morning. I'm not feeling good again today, my chest is really wheezy and I'm coughing,I am wondering if it's because of having the second vaccine but who knows . I've got a GP appointment on the 16th so will have to wait until then to see what's going on unless they contact me sooner. 
    I am cleaning the house today because it needs doing and I'm fed up of sitting in a messy house. I also need to go and sort the chickens at some point, one of them has started laying again to my surprise, it's a bonus not having to buy eggs but they are getting on now so I sort of wish their body would stop producing eggs now, I'm hoping they will both have another summer in the garden as they have been locked away since last November 😟
    So Today will consist of catching up with household jobs fuelled by birthday cake 😍😍
