[quote WhatWouldTheDoctorDo]@mondaywine have you contacted the helpline? My letter didn't arrive - I would have missed my appointment if I hadn't called. 44/45 year old friends in Edinburgh have appointments - some have had letters, others found out by calling helpline. [/quote]
This is really annoying! The letters system is bonkers, but on the NHS website it basically says "be patient, you'll get your letter when you're due..." but if people don't get it in time, that's not particularly helpful, is it!
The website specifically says the helpline is for people who don't have a GP or CHI number, or for group 1 to 9 who still haven't had a letter, and it's only here that I've heard of 40-49 people phoning it on the off-chance that they should have had a letter... official advice is just to wait. I'm a thrawn bugger, so think I'll just wait... then at least if I miss it I have some chance of rearranging it at an appropriate venue/ time and I won't feel guilty about setting the appointment to suit me and not struggling to meet their randomly assigned appointment 
It just seems such a ridiculous waste of resources when an online system would have been so simple to just give everyone access to.
I agree Glasgow vaccines should be accelerated though. The numbers are a bit scary, and I know that no longer matters (hospitalisations and deaths no longer being linked as strongly), but it does matter if the SG are using it as a reason to reintroduce lockdown. It's obvious that from Monday, anyone in tier 3 Moray will travel to a tier 2 to do anything there that they want to, and that will risk spreading cases to neighbouring authorities that may not otherwise need to have been affected (people preferring to stay local and support local, familiar businesses where possible). If Glasgow is kept in tier 3 it will bugger the relevant businesses in Glasgow, and just increase the spread to neighbouring authorities, which will be locked down in turn. It's a stupid system.
