I am absolutely frustrated by how this years vaccine immunisation programme has been implemented. As someone in the shielding category I only recently received my invitation letter and won't be vaccinated until the end of November. I was informed on my letter that people within my household would also qualify and to call the number on the letter for further information. I called and was told just to bring them with me. The person I spoke to was very hesitant so therefore called again the next day and was told I couldnt do that and they should receive their own appointments. It seems to me that none knows. And therefore dont know what to do.. My family members work so just cant come down with me in the hope of being seen. Can someone please clarify. I also want to state that this service should have been left with GP surgeries they know their patients and people would have then been vaccinated in order of priority and not left wondering what on earth is going on. The flu vaccine takes 2 weeks to become fully effective and I know many people who get them annually and are now getting extremely anxious.. I only hope NHS Lanarkshire don't deliver the Covid vaccine.
