My first jab I walked straight in, my second there was a long queue. Bloody Hell ' even the Queen had to wait Far longer ' I bet you were well pleased. The Queen got her first jab 9 January and her second jab 31 March so 81 days I live in Enfield and my local Hub does roughly 800 people per day and amazingly I had the choice of 3 local hubs so they can rattle though over 16,000 every week. No real queue as such - I think there was 3 people in front of me but they had 4 rooms active. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So amazingly ' 4 weeks between the two jabs ' !!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately ' you wont know until they contact you ' as it can be someone calling you up on the phone or a letter or a text I was concerned if it was a text as there is so many fake ones about but when I received the text they listed my GP surgery name and the name of the Vaccination Centre ' so important details that would never appear in a scam text.' - I already knew the name of my local Vaccination Centre . text was from book.nhs.me/r/details removed sure other areas it may be a different address to enter all I had to supply was my NHS Number First time the text arrived Monday 25/1 and I booked that day ' and first available appointment was Wednesday 27/1 I was sent the second jab text link on Saturday 3/4 and I booked that day ' and first available appointment was Wednesday 7/4 so if its a text ' it should arrive soon ' good luck 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blutarsky Posted May 23, 2021 Report Share Posted May 23, 2021 Just had the text to say I’m eligible - I’m 33. Booked for next Sunday morning and second dose midway through August. Anyone else in the 32-34 bracket? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glasto-worker Posted May 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2021 This is ' part ' of the NHS certificate you can get by calling 119 ' if you live in England ' at the top there is a unique bar code and some other codes this is the options to reach a Human being - 12311122 { it was the sequence when I called } Name - DOB - Post code - NHS number shame its not like that to use the NHS App as it claims ' I don't match my passport ' lets hope its not long before we don't need a certificate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Scottish version, sturgeon just has to be different! Update, this form has been withdrawn as it’s been proved to be too easy to forge😁.

But any paper document can be edited and I am sure at some point in time there will be a fake NHS app even although many mistakes have been made the one thing they have got right is the mass vaccinations - it is some achievement.

The NHS app is great. Has both of my jabs detailed plus a QR code for quick proof: effectively a vaccine passport without the stigmatic name. It also has my medical history back to the 90s including problems I’d forgotten I ever had ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She had a bad reaction - much worse than the first two, maybe because she had the flu jab at the same time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
