Vaccination at a cost

What are peoples thoughts on the idea of actually paying for the vaccination to jump the queue. The money generated churned back into the NHS?

Will not happen via the NHS, if they are available on the free market people can do as they wish but be prepared to pay over the odds..

I understand the morality of it but on the plus side it would reduce the queue at one end whilst adding funds to speed the roll out at the sharp end,,, just a thought

It's based on the principle that we're not contributing enough to the NHS OP. I agree but it's better to target that cause, rather than tinkering with bits of it, which undermine the free at the point of delivery service model.

Not sure that you contributing a few extra quid is going to make much difference to the £130bn (or whatever) NHS budget. If the rollout needs more money to speed things up the government will pay (well, we will via taxes etc) to end lockdown quicker and get the economy moving.

I would pay. Would lessen the burden on the NHS by hopefully not getting ill and let someone else have my jab. This would also mean more people covered in less time.

But until such time they become available it’s academic anyway. I do think in time boosters will be normal in stores like the current flu jab is.

I'd happily pay, but I'm not jumping the queue, lots of people need it more than I do

Whilst your giving money to the NHS you're also taking away supplies from the NHS.

Immoral. Why should I get something I want, at the expense of someone who's in more danger?

The problem is there are limited stocks of the vaccine available at present. If people were able to pay and jump the queue this would reduce the stock available for the most vulnerable who possibly cant afford to pay.

Not a good idea in my opinion.

It's only a matter of time before doses appear on the black market.

Interestingly, there were reports of a London property investment firm, offering to make 'donations' (£5,000) to staff at surgeries where vaccinations appointments were being missed and due to storage/logistical issues, then wasted.

Got a bit jumbled up. I interpreted the post wrong. I didn’t take into account the jump the queue bit.

I wouldn’t jump a queue. But I would pay privately if there were stocks alongside each other.

I would never pay to jump the queue, especially considering there are vulnerable people who haven’t had theirs yet, I can stay inside for a bit longer until they’re protected.

The idea of paying to jump the queue undermines what the NHS is for and in times of crisis we should be more selfless and not encourage people to think selfishly by waving cash about to get something before someone who needs it most!

"jump the queue" was the wrong turn of phrase. I should've said if the vaccine was in abundance of stock. Would you pay to get it quicker? Not at the detriment of the vulnerable, I hasten to add

No, because the queue is based on need

Fact if the matter is there is not an abundance of stock, there is not an abundance of staff to give it out and there is a priority system for a reason.

Anyway, whoever heard of a Brit jumping queues?!

Yes this is the issue. The limited stocks have to go to those who need it most not privileged queue jumpers.

Absolutely nothing stopping people giving money to the NHS, they have numerous charities ready to accept your money.

However paying money to jump the queue? NO! because everybody who did that would push each person who couldn't afford it backwards down the queue! which is unacceptable.

I don't condone queue jumping as a health rich 40 year old is less likely to suffer dire consequences compared to a 70 or 80 year old.

However, I do suspect if people had to pay for a vacinne then those espousing conspiracies in one direction would quickly be suggesting that the lack of free mass vaccination is a conspiracy to deny the vacinne to them and their kin and would be protesting for the vacinne to be distributed free at the point of delivery.
