Grast_girl 17 Sep 10:14pm, 17 Sep 2024 3,141 posts	0 Grast_girl I think I'm going to have to pay for one, but I'd like Novavax and it appears we're not getting that anytime soon in the UK, so I might have to go Moderna instead. Also, need to get a flu vax as I haven't had one ever.
HappyG(rrr) 18 Sep 8:20am, 18 Sep 2024 50,965 posts	0 HappyG(rrr) Sorry to hear that Shades, hope you feel better soon. Must get mine booked. Less advertising this year. G
DocM 18 Sep 11:40am, 18 Sep 2024 49,890 posts	0 DocM Had to get mine privately, it was Pfizer. Flu in a couple of weeks. Friend of mine going for the shingles vac privately. Costs nearly £500
Shades 18 Sep 11:44am, 18 Sep 2024 4,083 posts	0 Shades Wow, £500!! I don't get my shingles jab for another 2 years. But if I was a couple of years younger I could have it. Crazy implementation rules by NHS.

Metro_Nome 22 Sep 8:01pm, 22 Sep 2024 7,656 posts	0 Metro_Nome I see you can now get a private vaccination at Michies for £80 (or £98 to include flu)
quimby 24 Sep 12:50pm, 24 Sep 2024 6,690 posts	0 quimby Online booking is now live for those who are eligible: nhs.uk As ever, my local practice messaged me to let me know they'll be doing vaccines, but the online booking is always available sooner than the vaccinations at the health centre. And, as ever, I had to rely on social media to find out that the booking link was live (BlueSky this time). Joint covid/flu booked for next week.
