Have you had your [s]microchip[/s] vaccine yet?

[belboid]

my dad finally got his second appointment, only 15 weeks after his first one. Will be done on saturday.

 

[Sprocket.]

I had my second Pfizer jab last Friday, I got a call from my local medical centre on Thursday to go for it. No ill effects other than a sore arm for a few hours.

 

[Bahnhof Strasse]

Booked in for Monday morning, aged 48, Frau Bahn too, aged 45, neither with health conditions nor any priority. Looks like they're trying to get them in before them nasty Euro-folk nick 'em all.

Had the long hoped-for text today. Been feeling like a teenager for a couple of months now, getting butterflies every time I got a text, and my heart sinking when they turned out to be from Virgin Mobile or a Lloyds bank scam instead.

After trying every 10 mins for the whole day I finally got through to my GP and am booked in for 8 April! 46, no known underlying health conditions - not sure how this fits in with the supposed booking stop for the under 50s so a little bit worried about possible cancellation, but fingers crossed!

 

[WouldBe]

Just had my first jab and waiting for the re-boot. .

 

[SpineyNorman]

Got the text this morning and booked an appointment for tomorrow lunch time straight away.

Really surprised they got to me so quick. I'm 42 with no known underlying health issues. Gave me an appointment for my second jab in June too.

 

[Puddy_Tat]

i'm due my first one this afternoon

i feel kinda shit today (headache which is probably a migraine), general aches and pains and crappy feeling.

don't think i'm running a temperature and i can still smell things.

trying to decide if i should cancel in case i'm coming down with something

although from the news it may be some time before i can re-book if there's a shortage

and i've already booked tomorrow off work as well and leading in to the easter weekend so i've got a clear run to have side effects if i'm going to

 

[kebabking]

I've got mine (46, reasonably healthy) on Wednesday.

Really looking forward to it - our broadband is shite, so the 5G will help a lot with WFH.

Does the phone automatically pick it up or do you have to go to settings?

Not sure, hopefully there'll be a leaflet or something. I'm on Android if anyone has any pointers...

it takes the nano bots a few weeks to self replicate. When that happens they automatically log into the gates network.

My mate thinks he is a 5G mast since the vacinne but STILL he's having network problems.

have you tried turning him off and on again?

 

[sim667]

Second jab done, didn’t feel even nearly as shit as my first Jab.

still not getting 5G signal at home, am disappoint. Also all those people getting blood clots from the AZ jab? Word on the street is that it’s the microchips blocking people’s blood vessels.

 

[marty21]

Still no call. I did only reply YES. Did it need to be YES PLEASE?

I got the text, replied, thought I'd booked it for Saturday morning at a local Chemist , rocked by at 9.55 for my 10.05 appointment, I hadn't booked it I was supposed to confirm the appointment after another text which I didn't get . They still jabbed me , at about 10.05 . Had the AZ flavour , no side effects.

 

[mojo pixy]

Had the second jab today (both Pfizer)

I'm reliably informed by my colleagues who all had theirs last week that I should feel like crap by tomorrow. I can hardly wait

 

[Lurdan]

Had my second shot of pfizer yesterday morning. Unlike the first shot, this time I felt a bit rough an hour or so afterwards. Had a long sleep and felt a little better. Then I went into the bathroom and caught sight of my reflection in the mirror. I looked absolutely fucking terrible. Took me a moment to realise I'd forgotten to take my glasses off.

 

[tony.c]

I had my second pfizer jab yesterday too, afternoon. Like the first jab no immediate problems. Today I only have slight tenderness at point of injection.

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

Didn't hear anything about my second jab.
The first appointment was made with my GP because I had been left off the automatic list. They said they would be in touch to tell me when the second one would be but I never heard anything. It's been seven weeks so I checked on line where it told me I had missed my second appointment (but didn't say when that was). I assume I didn't actually miss anything (as it would have only been 7 weeks), but was able to book for the 11th May. That's only a couple of days off 12 weeks so not ideal. Supposed to be best at 6-8 weeks I think for medical effectiveness right? 12 weeks was the government stretching things out to their limit? . . . but I guess it's ok?

When I went to book my first dose, the website said I had missed the appointment. So, that’s just a bug in the site.

I thought the standard in the U.K. was 12 weeks between doses? So, you have nothing to worry about.

OK cool. Looks like I found it just in time. Places were getting booked up before my eyes. The whole Friday disappeared for every location as I was filling in a time.

 

[Buddy Bradley]

No sign of any under-50s vaccinations happening around here yet. Maybe if I post on this thread moaning about it, I'll get a text just to prove me wrong...

 

[Cloo]

Sounds like my invite might be imminent now they're restarting rollout for my age group. Sadly a bit excited that it sounds like it might be the Moderna one, as I think they are keeping AZ back for second doses now.

 

[andysays]

My wife (47 years old) had her AZ jab yesterday.

No side effects

 

[Elpenor]

I gather over 40s can book via the NHS website now (it still says over 50s on the homepage) but a few 40+ people I know have booked today successfully

I just tried with my NHS number and DoB (I'm 41) and it said I wasn't yet eligible.

 

[Elpenor]

Hmm both those people were 48

 

[Cloo]

My other half is 47 and he got offered it three weeks into March before the big slowdown - it's all a bit random!

 

[Gerry1time]

My suspicion is they'll be doing 45-49 next.
