When we get there it turns out that he had his flu jab on Tuesday and now he has ‘flu-like symptoms’. No medal for gallantry or mention in dispatches this time. Bloody wimp.
Today's six months and a week since my second jab. I'll see if I can book a booster appointment later. I tried a couple of days ago and it (correctly) said I wasn't eligible.
Edit: And it still says I'm not eligible....
Same for me, so I toddled off down to the surgery and booked it at reception. As long as you're over 50, there should be no problem.
EDIT - I've just received the NHS text to book the booster!
Slept badly, woke up with a banging headache, took two paracetamol and was fine by lunchtime, which in my book makes it still a better option than flu or COVID.
Don't talk politics and don't throw stones. Your royal highnesses.
Flu booked in in a couple of weeks. I didn;t get it last year as I didn't see the point given we were locked down for nearly the whole flu seasons. However, this year I think there will be loads of flu about and having had it about 15 years ago I really don't want that again. I was ill for two weeks, in bed for one of those, and lost about a stone. And I was in my 30s and fit.
(And they'd rather treat me for conditions I might have - based on age, sex etc - than pay attention to things I actually say are wrong. But that's a whole other topic.)
To be fair, for the previous two jabs they have just contacted me, but there's been so much encouragement this week - from the government, no less! - to go and book a booster that I thought I would just try to do that.
UPDATE: Just got a text from the NHS asking me to book my booster.... the website still says I'm not eligible, I should call 119... I call 119, they say they can only see the same booking details I can see, so I should keep trying online.
Ah.... Johnson's Britain, eh?
Both ok for the rest of the day, but then Mrs Rocks had a bad nights sleep, found her in the spare room this morning. So, I wasn’t feeling anything much at all until midday today and now I have a mild headache and feel tired. She feels a bit nauseous. Hope that’s it, but we should know tomorrow.
I had the flu in 2016, spent nine days in which I didn’t even get dressed, 6 days straight with a 40 degree temperature and lost 10 lbs in weight. Never again.
