CEV Booster less than 6 months?

[Switch82]

Hello I was CEV category last time so I’m now able to book my vaccine I’ve booked it for next Tuesday but it’ll be 1 week less than 6 months. Is that allowed will I be turned away?

My DH has been able to book exactly 180 days from his second dose. (that is a few days less than 6 months).

Is that your situation? because that should be fine.

Oh yes possibly actually just looked my vaccination (2nd one) was 10th May and I’ve got my booster booked for Tuesday 9th Nov so it’s only a day out! Hopefully that should be ok!

I think that's 180 days.

Hasn't it now been reduced to 5 months anyway?

I had mine today, I had my last AZ dose on 8th May and they said it was fine.

@Cookerhood you can book from 5 months but it's still 6 months to actually have the vaccine.

Oh I see, thank you

Hoping I’ll be ok on the 180 day rule!

Also will I get Pfizer? I had AZ first time

And had bad headaches with it both times not going to have it again

Booster dose is Pfizer

All boosters are either Pfizer or Moderna (half dose for Moderna) unless there is a clinical reason why they can't be used.

I had AZ for the first two doses, I had Pfizer today (our vaccination site is only doing Pfizer).

Thank you! I’m hoping not to get turned away on Tuesday a day before I’m fully 6 months!

It will depend on the centre. We were saying exactly 6 months. Another centre I know was allowing a week early. The computer system flashes up a message if it's less than 180 days but you can ignore it.

I might re-arrange to Weds!

Moved to Weds exactly 6 months.

Scotland's letter says 24 weeks. My partner booked for his tomorrow 25 weeks 6 days.

In England 😊
