2nd Jab After 8 Weeks

sheramber

Why would you not take it?

Originally it was to be 21 days. It was only extended to allow them to give the 1 st vax to more people than 2 vax to fewer people.

Vaccination programme seems to be weird in many places with people in real need not being offered and given to other whom might not qualify yet for it. In my case and my wife.. Been offered twice the vaccine in Feb and now in May. Both 31 and 29 with no medical history, perfectly healthy. I hope they used the jabs for some who really need them.

Why on earth would you not accept.

They're offering jabs to anyone over 40 in England so you might as well have just booked.  If you book for a few weeks time it probably won't be significantly in advance of when you'll be offered anyway.  Where in the UK do you live?

What occupations are you in ?

Getting mine at 11 weeks.

My local vac centre apparently had 100 no shows on one day.

They leave the end of day clear and ring round various work places to use up the opened bottles.

They want it offered to those in greater need first.

You have no control over who is and who isn’t offered “your” dose.
It probably went to a fit and healthy 25 year old

Probably, but they felt they didn't want it (yet) and that's their choice. 

Same with people in work keep asking me why I haven't  bothered signing up to a reserve it - none of their business, also I'm not in a rush.
