is anyone else having one?

my dd3 has cf and has to have the flu jab every year,i am so worried that she wont be given it as they have said that the elderly are being prioritised.

just wondering if there is anyone else in wales that have been for it and been told they cant have it.

Hi buffy, saw on news this morn (think it was wales news) that supply should be sorted by december. perhaps you should ask your gp for advice as i'm sure your dd would be a priority.

There are delays in parts of London too - dh rang up about them today, and was told they were starting November instead of October.

im going to go to gp tomorrow and if she says there is a delay i'll have to ring the cf nurse up as we were told at clinic last thursday to get it done this week

It's crap isn't it, but bugs are getting alot more resistent now and it's taking more research and time in the lab to make sure the jab is effective, think that is the reason for the delay now.
