I heard on the radio this morning that there had been a delay for patients with blood cancer being offered their boosters. In my opinion they should take priority along with those at very high risk/very elderly. Why the delay?

That should be a given Pulisa that people with serious illnesses go towards the front of the queue. My Dad had his NHS letter today so I booked him in for his jab this Tuesday.
I think the obesity question is less clear cut than appears on the surface. While yes we are responsible for shovelling the food into our mouths, isn't its source a form of self-hatred tied in with self image/self esteem? I remember prior to my own anxiety kicking off in a major way aged 20, I was skinny with my weight always stable. Within 6 months I'd put on a stone and a half without remembering how. Poor mental health and poor physical health coexist frequently.

That seems ridiculous.
There seems to be no continuity I've heard of some elderly that have had it, some who haven't. One GP's had the jabs available, one didn't because of supply problems.
We'll have to have it at work, but the booking system isn't up and running yet, but, one colleague has had it already at her GP practice - she's under 30 with no underlying health problems.
That seems a bit strange...when people with severely compromised immune systems have to effectively shield again now whilst they wait for their booster invite.
I expect Her Maj will have been called...but can't see her queuing up with the peasants.
Is the booster compulsory for your work, Catkins?

They are strongly encouraging us to do so. Because of us going into residential homes from time to time (at the moment, we used to go in regularly). As it is at the moment we just have to show a negative lateral flow test, from the middle of the month we have to have been jabbed.
To be honest it makes sense for all healthcare workers to have to have it.
