Because the whole enterprise costs money and there will be the NotInMyBackyardBrigade  plus patents .........

I had my vaccination on Friday, no adverse reactions, but then i read if you do have side effects it proves the vaccine is working, so what if you have no side effects,i again read that it means your immune system isn't good
I have always thought i had a good immune system, as i don't seem to get all the ailments going round,even if in my own family
What your thoughts

[CLKD]

MayB because our immune systems are generally in good order, it shows if 1 has a reaction that it needs a  .  I had no reaction to my 'flu jab last year: the 1st I've ever had: because I had 'flu 30 years ago, twice.  The common cold occasionally since otherwise ....... DH didn't have a cold for 5 years, he had Marmite on toast every morning for breakfast 

I wouldn't worry too much

Got my text to book my COVID vaccine - Hooray 

The only problem is I’ve been told it needs to be at a GP surgery or a hospital and the list only has a hotel, community halls or pharmacies - boo 

I’ve been advised to contact my local CCG to see what they suggest, guess I have to be patient.

Contact the CCG - your text may be a scam, there's a lot of them around

Hello ladies.

Apparently the scam text downloads the details from your phone and introduces malware. I think the genuine messages include a phone number for you to call and confirm your appointment but I could be wrong about that.

I'm not likely to be contacted for a while yet but I will be on my guard nearer the time.

Take care ladies.

I had a phone call from an Uncle now aged 91.  Although deaf we have nice chats.  He had a jab one morning about 2 weeks, after being called by his Surgery 2 attend.  At 10.30 p.m. he had a call from the Centre to go for another vaccine .........  .  Which he was given.  He asked whether he could wait until the morning but was told he had to go immediately  .

He has talked to his neighbour, to his 'daily' as he calls her, I don't know if he has contacted his GP Surgery ........ no one can understand ? ! ? As he is in Scotland I don't know which Authority he would be registered under.

Thank you for the advice-Text was authentic. CCG gave me the contact number for my vaccination hub 

All booked in for the AstraZeneca vaccine next week. It’s a GP run hub at a local hotel - so plenty of beds should I have a reaction

Haha, sounds perfect.
I’m really looking forward to the trip out

A friend had the astra-zenica jab last week and suffered a really painful stiff arm down the hand; followed by intense, nauseating headache and was so stiff she couldn't get out of bed!  Side effects lasted 3 days ........ and she's due to return in mid-April for the 2nd jab. 

[Taz2]

They say the side effects last around three days in those it affects. It's obviously better than getting seriously ill from the virus but still difficult to deal with if you've got work to do and/or family to care for.
