Is the swine flu jab available privately in the UK if you're not in one of the NHS risk groups?

Yes. Its combined with 'normal' flu jab, and I had it at my local pharmacy - think it cost £10 Smile

Thanks for the fast reply, Elibean :)

Do they ask you to fill in lots of details about yourself or is it quite straightforward?

A few questions, namely allergies/past jabs all relevent stuff - nothing incriminating Smile

Pretty straightforward, I popped in on spec, filled in form in 2 minutes, got jab.

Thank you - I was going to ask my GP about this and now I'll just book it and go.

They were doing them in Tesco the other week, I think. Hmm

(Hmm because it just seems odd, medical treatment in a supermarket. Still, convenient and cheap!)
