15 year old walk in?

9 replies

DD is keen to be vaccinated but is eight weeks short of her 16th birthday. We have a walk in not far from us that's doing 16 year olds. I know when it went to 18 year olds they were vaccinating 17 years and nine months upwards. Does anyone know if they would vaccinate a 15 year, 10 month old? Tried calling 119 but couldn't get through to a person.

Very much doubt it

Very much doubt it. I can't find a walk in for my just 17yo! All over -18s

@Seeline That's a shame. We have quite a few around here and I'm not in a city. Last week they were all still 18+ but are now 16+.

Well she can get it in 8 weeks, what's the issue?

She wants it done before she goes back to school if possible.

A 15 year old is slightly different to a 16 year old legally even though still childre. so I can see why they may do 17 and 9 months but not someone who isn't 16.

We wouldn’t do her where I work.

Here where we live they made youngest kiddo wait until he'd turned 18. I'm sure they are going to be just as strict with 16 year olds. It's worth ringing up and asking though.
