Cv Vaccine- What Is The Schedule For This?

[joko]

does anyone know what the schedule is for this?
my 81 yr old mum was done last week, so i assume its old people first?

then people with auto immune diseases?

I have asthma so was just wondering approximately when i could expect to get a letter.

im not worried, & my asthma is mild, im just curious as to whether theres a plan.

thanks

astma not on the list, so depending on your age, second wave

From .gov

Priority Risk group
1 Residents in a care home for older adults and staff working in care homes for older adults
2 All those 80 years of age and over and frontline health and social care workers
3 All those 75 years of age and over
4 All those 70 years of age and over and clinically extremely vulnerable individuals (not including pregnant women and those under 16 years of age)
5 All those 65 years of age and over

7 All those 60 years of age and over
8 All those 55 years of age and over

10 Rest of the population (to be determined)

I think it's a free for all now - anyone over 70 & those with serious conditions. I had mine this morning (74) but I don't think all the older age groups have been done here.

[bednobs]

ie not determined yet

[davebro]

The centre I went to said they would do 800 today.

Free for all ? You'll get an invite in next 2 weeks.

[bednobs]

i doubt many people are 800 :)

It seems to be different with different surgeries. Only they can really give you an idea.

[bednobs]

but dont call your surgery to ask, they will contact you

What has been said is that the aim is to have all of groups 1 to 4 having been offered one vac by feb 15th (mid feb) and that this is on target to happen.

DAVEBRO, how much notice did you get of the appointment?

[Peter Pedant]

we are nearly thro the fourth category - Manche being somewhere at the top
and that is due to the incredible efficiency of the local groups

DAVEBRO, how much notice did you get of the appointment?

Mr U got a phone call this morning with appointment Wednesday. He was 70 2 months ago.

Got my first today ... 68. Himself the same.

It's all a bit of a postcode lottery I think. Some areas of the country have ample supplies, others don't. It all depends on where you live.

For some reason, for about five minutes, my post was showing under PP's name even when I changed from IE to Chrome.

It only changed when I was in the middle of asking if others could see it too, very confusing...

[THECORBYLOON]

It's back showing under PP's name! What's happening?
