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.

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.

I see you can now get a private vaccination at Michies for £80 (or £98 to include flu)

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.
