How long after booster did it take to be on your list of medicines at the GP'ssilvercar said:

I work at a GP led vaccine clinic and at least 2 of the surgeries we serve have said that as an interim solution, without charging they will produce a list of a patient’s covid vaccines signed and stamped by the surgery for patients travelling to a country that requires this.0 -
I read in the press that the booster wasn't going to be added to the NHS App proof of vaccination. I had my booster last week but had assumed that it wouldn't be added for a couple of weeks (to allow the booster to take effect). My proof of the 2nd jab wasn't added until about 2 weeks after it was done. I have just checked my NHS App record and there is no mention of the Booster yet. I had it done on Tues 26th October.Jonty6262 said:

4 days, which was longer than I expected. Vaccinated on a Sunday and the data entered (by me!) immediately.Jonty6262 said:

How does that work then? After you entered the data, does that record of your jab get relayed to your GP surgery, then it's just a case of the surgery entering it on your records?silvercar said:

The data entered is onto NIMS, the National Immunisation Management System via NIMS own data entry system or Pinnacle or other systems. That data is stored in the NIMS data store.Jonty6262 said:

That feeds into GP data, your medical record, the national booking system and the NHS app.So the data starts off on the central record and from there is dispersed out as appropriate.I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards.

I haven't been able to download the app. The NHS website simply points me to register and the provided me a scan code. Not very helpful as it doesnt provide my vaccine status

The QR code contains your vaccine record. When it is scanned it will show up.0
