Basically im trying to work out if im in group 6 or not..
I have a very rare genetic condition that is not listed in the green book.
I dont want to call my Gp surgery and bother them with this, im sure they get loads of phone calls.
In October i was invited for the flu jab even though im not pregnant nor am i a carer/ health worker. Im in my 30s, so i think the reason i was invited for the jab was due to my condition.
I wonder if that means im also in group 6?

Most asthmatics are flu jab but not group 6 , so no you are not guaranteed group 6 on basis of flu jab, that was the criteria for those considered at risk at the start of the pandemic when they didn't know any better

Seriously, call your GP. It’s your health.

Not automatically, I have been put on grp9, age related, even on a combi inhaler.
