Not having vaccine but being bombarded with calls

I’ve made an informed decision not to have the jab at the current time. I may change my mind at a later date, but that’s currently my decision.
I’m 32 and fairly low risk although I’m a little overweight.
I know I’d be given Pfizer, but I’ve read many things about it causing period changes. I have some real problems with my periods at the best of times and I don’t feel able to put myself through it. I’ve also read there’s a link between possible heart issues and the vaccine in young people.
I have lots of ongoing anxiety about my health and I know I’d be a mess after having it, so I just don’t want to put my mental health through that.
I’m pretty sure I had it back in March 2020 too.

Anyway, I’m getting constant phone calls from my GP and lots of letters/text messages, I’m ignoring them for now, but I’m not sure whether I should call them and tell them I don’t want to have it right now? Then hopefully they’ll leave me alone.

[quote NakedAttraction]@Wakeupin2022 it varies massively between areas though, London being particularly low.[/quote]
Yes it does. There are some question marks over London because of the measure that is used to calculate population.

BUT taking in all the discrepancies (all countries will be the same) the UK will still be top or near top of league table once all vaccinations are delivered.

The poster I was originally replying too seemed to suggest we came about vaccines too easily and that everyone where she was wanted vaccinated, probably because they were not so available before. That is really good news where he / she is based, but her image of UK is perhaps distorted when you look at the nation as a whole.

Could you answer a call and tell them you don't want one?
