Getting single mumps vaccine

[Hosking]

Has anyone been to france for their child's mumps vaccine? I'm trying to get information about doing this. Any help out there? Who do I phone and where do I go?

Look up Holborn Medcial Centre on Google. They can do it all for you and will send you information and a quesionnaire toute suite (!French theme).

With Twiglet on this - why go to France - just out of interest?
Where do you live? I went to a great hospital in Hemel Hempstead of DD Rubella.

I recently had ds2 measles vaccine done at Hemel Hempstead and they told me they should have stocks of mumps vaccine in early november.

Kayleigh and thomcat - are you in or near Hemel then?

I am near. Live in Herts.

I'm in Hemel, unfortunately.

Im in Pinner, not a million miles away.

I think the problem is that even though plenty of good clinics in the UK offer the single jabs, at the moment there is a massive shortage of the Jeryl-Lynn strain of the vaccine, which is the preferred and safest version to use. So they are putting clients on a waiting list.
No tips on going to France, I'm afraid, Hosking, but I'd bet that a search of pages jaunes (don't have a URL but I think googling for France Telecom will get you the main directory enquiries website) for Calais/Boulogne will maybe throw up a few clinics/practices who offer this.
