Has anyone had their second dose rearranged due to closures of hubs?

I am due my 2nd dose Pfizer a week today - the hub I am meant to be going to was closed for a few days this week and is open again now but will be closing on some days over the next few weeks - just wondering how much notice we might get if the jab falls on a day when they will have to be closed again. Obviously there is no alot of leeway to delay things too much - maybe people get it on the same day as scheduled but elsewhere. Wondered if anyone had been affected so far in the last week maybe.

Our hub is open on the days where people have been booked in for second doses but closed when not. So if you have an appointment booked, I would assume that is because they have vaccine supplies and have booked you and others in to receive one, and so will be open. They would contact you if your appointment needs to be rearranged.

Dm has just had her second Pfizer delayed a week until after Easter. The centre has been closed for a few weeks but still using same one.

My hub seems to close on and off and often on quite short notice - think it has closed 4 times or perhaps 5 in as many weeks due to supply issues. I assume they can only delay you if in fact they will still get to you within 12 weeks.

My 2nd appointment was booked in January on the same day I had my first jab when supplies on 1st April would not have been known with any accuracy.

Not even been given a date for second ones. apparently they contact us!

On our local news yesterday they said you'd be contacted if your hub was closed, and sent to a different hub that was open that day. It didn't give any indication of how much notice you'd get though - or how far you might have to travel. I hope it works out okay for you.
