This 100%
Besides I thought it was against MN rules to bitch about one thread on another @NannyAndJohn

Students jabbed so far are likely to be mainly the group 6 people (as the national booking site in England isn't yet open to under 30s) and group 6 were done via GPs in many areas because it was more complicated to identify them. In the future most students will be about to book via the national booking site, which allows you to book wherever you want to. So should be easy for them to book somewhere near to their parents home if that's easier for them.

@Piggywaspushed

A question re students... are they not going to reach the student age group when most of them are residing away from their GP area? How does that work? And what about the second dose?

DS1 is due home this Sunday. Not jabbed yet (19). GP 100+ miles away once he is back.

Do they just register online and go where is convenient?

As per PP - not a problem for him to book anywhere once the slots are opened up in the right age group.

What I would recommend is watching the booking system / news - as I know you will - obviously your DS won't want to wait for a letter which could be posted to their term-time address. As soon as it opens to under 20's, which will likely be big news, tell him to get booked.

Also make sure he books a date for his second, even if he doesn't know where he will be. He can always change the date / venue for the second jab later on.

Generally Pfizer & Moderna are done at the largere vax centres,

I know 18+s can book in Bedford now so will have to get him on to it when he gets back!

Yes, tell him to book. Moderna is also available in Stevenage if that is doable for him.

I'm not sure Bolton does look that reassuring.

The healthcare situation looks more positive than what may be implied from the case positivity rate.

According to @ShaunLintern, the health correspondent from Independent:

More good news from Bolton Hospital. Number of Covid patients has fallen again. Now 34 Covid patients in total, down from 49 last Thursday. Six in ICU/HDU down from 12 on Mon. 3 new admission in past 24 hours but 8 discharges.

Don’t think we ever went to sleep mind , we celebrate good news in the good news thread and worry in the non good news threads. We’re capable of separating the good from the bad news. Unlike some people that only see the bad news

It would seem mentally healthiest to try to think about both the good and the bad in the round rather than segregate them.

I'm not sure about that @colouring. It's definitely more honest to be open to both positive and negative news, and to weigh both up will help you make the best decisions for your physical health, and those around you. But for mental health it does depend how you are mentally and how you cope generally with bombardment of news about deaths and risks. We've had a lot of exposure to that over the last 15 months in a way many of us weren't previously used to. There have been times when I've taken a break from social media and limited my mainstream media too as there were just too many awful things happening that I could do nothing about and I was in a better place mentally just blocking the bad news out. I'm copying very well currently but can well understand how some people feel the need to focus just on positive news to help their mental health. This particular thread isn't always going to be the right place for them (though it's certainly a safer haven than some places!) I think it's nice that the good news thread exists too.

Me too @Firefliess. My Dh reads the news before bed but I can’t do it. I like reading this thread for covid news as it’s less emotive. It’s a real bother that cases are rising again, but I can see positivity in that the age groups it’s affecting is predominantly the unvaccinated and the (hopefully)less at risk , though of course I would rather it was nobody at all.. this at least seems rational. Is there any data that shows the proportion of vaccinated people in the hot spots compared to other places?

The data on the government dashboard shows the proportion of people vaccinated by local authority.

I read this thread for the facts. I read (and occasionally post on) the good news threads as a way of coping. To find the good things that are going on. I need a little bit of hope otherwise I would end up in a very bad place. I know I've been there. I do also read other threads and very rarely post. Its not all fingers in the ears singing lalala and pretending the bad bits don't exist. It's having a place to go that might lift the spirits a bit.

To me right now its the "we told you so" vibe that you are giving out @NannyAndJohn which is the real shitter. Not that cases are going up, or that we're not sure what is going to happen on 21st June (which by the way doesn't really effect me much anyway) Now go, give yourself a bit pat on the back for being so bloody superior.

It would seem mentally healthiest to try to think about both the good and the bad in the round rather than segregate them.

There is a thread in mn called good news. It’s in the 13th version of it. Whoever opened the first one was to celebrate the good news and to be a safe place for those that could be overwhelmed by some of the information. I don’t see a problem to celebrate the happy news. I think most of us know that goes well can go wrong but will go again well. I find it upsetting that someone comes to that thread and starts telling us we’ve got our heads down in the sands for celebrating the good news because there will be some sad ones around the corner. I don’t think this behaviour is healthy. I find worrying that someone can’t celebrate the happy news because is worried something bad will come after , or I find it patronising that someone comes to that thread to tell you off for being happy because one day there were no deaths at all. For many it’s a happy place , there are enough sad threads in mn that many of us visit as well, there is no need to be negative in all of them. But also there is no need to go to another thread to b**ch around about that thread to say now they’re waking up, mn rules forbid to be talking about another threads.

There is too many sad news around , if people want to celebrate that they’ve been vaccinated, that someone they know got the vaccine or that the news lately have been good, I see no problem in there , and def no need to be told off like many of us were told yesterday.

This thread is good for information and data , sometimes really reassuring when I’ve been upset about one more bad news , let’s keep it this way instead of trying to bring bad vibres

Does anyone know which vacc centers are doing Pfizer on a regular basis?
I would need to move up my 2nd dose to 5 weeks interval for work reasons. I've lost one job because of this shit, I'd like to keep the current one.
GP is not helpful, gov only allows moving up to 8 wks and that is too much.

@EasterIssland - some people get their kicks from actively trying to upset others, that's all @NannyandJohn was up to. I can't imagine being that unhappy, it must be really awful.

@EasterIssland would never go onto a themed thread to contradict the theme/tone of the thread, don't think it is right for people to do that!

I genuinely don't think there will be another lockdown (rightly or wrongly). I think Boris will die on that hill irrespective of the numbers.

The most I think will happen is a delay to 21 June and possibly more restrictions on international travel.

If you post your rough location some posters may be able to help re locations.

However multi vac centres administer vaccination under a patient group directive and would not be able to give your second dose under 8 weeks. A GP may be able to, if it was clinically necessary.

Just watching the local news. As I mentioned the other day I was surprised to see that Bristol was mentioned in the guardian the other day because there are a lot of outbreaks because of rhe Indian variant in the schools.

Well we’ve had 59 cases in Bristol ... not sure if that classifies us in the B team.

When you get your COVID confirmed , do they tell you which variant was it ?

What work reasons, do you need a vaccination to travel? It would be a mean employer that would not understand that everyone has to take their turn here. I help with the vaccinations (volunteer) and people who’ve asked for 2nd within less than 8 weeks have generally been turned away unless there was a very specific medical reason (eg upcoming chemotherapy is one I think). That said you might find a sympathetic gp and/or get lucky turning up at a centre last thing

Re Bolton I do wonder if we could be seeing very early signs of the massive vax drive that started about 3 weeks ago. Plenty of people still catching covid but becoming less ill. As 2/3 weeks would be the minimum amount of time for vaccinations to work (a bit) and just now there will be people coming into that timeframe

Or is it far too early? Broadly speaking doing surge vax is likely to benefit areas most in 2/3 months surely but perhaps some encouraging signs

DSD managed to book herself in for a second Pfizer one only 4 weeks from the first by just going online and she was offered a couple of sites about an hour's drive away. She's desperate to get double jabbed in the hope that it'll allow her to visit her BF in the US so is happy to travel (borders not open yet, but she's hopeful that'll change). I don't think the system lets you book in a second jab somewhere not offering the one you need - it knows which type you've had doesn't it?

Mean or not, I need to travel. They wanted someone for 2 weeks every month in their country. They compromised a lot by letting me not go to work there every month until Sept or more, but there is one crucial meeting/workshop end of this month. And I'm running it.

@Frazzled2207 yup, I'm hoping to charm my way to a second dose :)

@PurpleWh1teGreen fair point: Anything in SW London up to Guildford or Reading. Up north up to Wembley. I'd like to skip congestion zone, but if not possible I don't mind. In fairness if it was something sure I'd go up to Luton if needed :)

My problem is that I am not brave enough to cancel my second dose and book one for next week to St. Thomas'. What if they don't have P.? What if ..... and I could end up falling through the cracks. And our GP is so unhelpful that I can't count on them.

I've been just offered the second jab only 5 weeks after the first.

I thought it must be a mistake as dh, who was a good 5 weeks before me hasn't been invited, so I phoned the surgery.

I told them what had happened and said I thought we might have been accidently mixed up.
The receptionist said in a really shocked tone. "Oh no! We couldn't possibly have done that," and I prepared for a dismissal, but she continued with "We just think you're more important than him". 🤣🤣🤣
Which cheered me up no end, and I may have repeated it to him a few times.

Anyway apparently it's deliberate that I've been invited, but dh was accidentally missed (I suspect because he changed phone number between the two) so he's now got his invite too.

I had my second dose (AZ) last Sunday with no side effects apart from sore arm. It’s been a crap week otherwise so good to have that.

@Firefliess
That’s interesting May try and change dh’s again. When we went online to try and change when I heard that under 50s could change to 8 weeks there were loads of appointments but absolutely nothing at all until precisely 8 weeks after the first.

I can see how some gp hubs might be more flexible but there aren’t any where I am and it’s a case of online only and “computer says no” for anything under 8 weeks. Agree it seems to know what you had even though it doesn’t explicitly state so
