I volunteer once a week at a vaccine hub - lots of us volunteers are back at work fulltime now unlike during lockdown so there is already a shortage without this extra drive - sadly I can still only do 1 shift a week there are I work a 7 day week and do it on one of my 2 afternoons off. I hope the centres and hubs will cope and get everyone boosted.

@Lovemusic33

dollybird no chemists near me are doing them, we have had 3 vaccination centres close and the gp now only vaccinating once a week 😭.
This is what has happened where I live. A lot of the vaccination centres have closed. The one walk in people are saying they are having to wait hours outside in the cold, because of very long queues. A friend went and said there were visibly disabled people queuing outside for 2 hours.

I tried to get LFT locally but the pharmacy only had nose ones, which I can't use due to previous trauma.

@SamhainToImbolc but it isn’t him is it? He’s the face of it all yes but he’s doing what his advisors say, so Boris or not it will be the same.

julieca · 30/11/2021 15:57

No Boris has frequently NOT done what his advisors say. The politicians make the decisions.

Lussekatt · 30/11/2021 15:58

@AlecTrevelyan006

I don’t think they’ll be announcing any further restrictions - just stuff about vaccinations and boosters
What's the point in that? It's pretty clear what's going to happen just from reading the news then, if he isn't going to announce anything new. That man just loves to talk.
PutmeontheNaughtyList · 30/11/2021 15:59

It seems like it’s now not at 5pm?! Wtf are they messing about at!!!

julieca · 30/11/2021 16:01

Boris is too coked up to put in front of the TV cameras yet?

You misspelled “too drunk”.
julieca · 30/11/2021 16:04

Yes that is a possibility too. Maybe they are trying to find someone else who will agree to give the briefing?

cruffin · 30/11/2021 16:05

Where is it on?

PutmeontheNaughtyList · 30/11/2021 16:07

Not sure tv wise……I’ve got 5 live on

"Even if you're eligible, don't go for a booster because we decided to close most of the vaccine centres. You might get your jab by the end of January..."

PilatesPeach · 30/11/2021 16:07

BBC News channel

the80sweregreat · 30/11/2021 16:07

It's on sky and bbc news channel

CorrBlimeyGG · 30/11/2021 16:09

Johnson and 'Saj' are doing their Churchill thing.

It's not washing.

Dogatetheleftovers · 30/11/2021 16:11

Beth Rigby on Sky News yesterday said that the JCVI had recommended that some clinically vulnerable will be advised to have a 4th jab. But I can’t see any mention of that elsewhere.

CherryBlossomAutumn · 30/11/2021 16:12

Daddy Pig is sorry but… um… well I… seem to not be able to find my… over to Miss Rabbit…

But honestly I’m really Churchill.

percythewitch · 30/11/2021 16:12

@cruffin

Where is it on?
Oh come on. Where do you think it will be on?

Have you seen any of the previous ones?

Where were they on?

Dogatetheleftovers · 30/11/2021 16:13

I’ve just heard Saj refer to the immuno suppressed group which I presume Beth Rigby was talking about yesterday.

thedefinitionofmadness · 30/11/2021 16:13

you're all getting a booster asap except you're not actually really when it boils down to it

we've got more people booster jabbed than er somewhere else

Laiste · 30/11/2021 16:13

Sky Live.

I've only just begun watching it. It's just the usual waffle.

Jabs in arms bla bla
Rising to the challenge ...

the80sweregreat · 30/11/2021 16:14

Yeah , saj, a vaccine that might evade the new variant.. what's the brief on that?

CorrBlimeyGG · 30/11/2021 16:14

And Christmas is mentioned and the blackmail starts, 'get your jab (if you can get one) or we're cancelling Christmas'.

theDudesmummy · 30/11/2021 16:14

"Jabs Army" ugh, can he really not stop himself with the jokes and bad puns in serious situations.
