Even if you did have it now your only about week ahead of where you would be so I say just have it. | |||

If they've already dealt with the "underlying health conditions" people (as they have here) then it's not really opening anything for anyone more vulnerable, just taking up the doctor's time looking things up and taking phonecalls that might otherwise be avoided. I'm not entirely sure why I was called for mine. I asked my GP during a consultation about something else and he said just have it, so I did. If you're willing to have it between now and July (when all adults are to be offered the first dose at least) then it seems daft to argue the toss. | |||

"Well actually yes, it rather does matter because someone else seems to know more about my health than me and my own GP who had this information passed on in a very brief manner, so briefly in fact thst he doesn't even know WHAT these issues are, only that I have health problems. Would you be comfortable knowing someone you don't know who you've never seen or spoken to has information about you that your own GP doesn't? " It's probably just confusion because they have now moved on to the under fifties without underline health conditions so probably a misunderstanding. | |||

Would you be comfortable knowing someone you don't know who you've never seen or spoken to has information about you that your own GP doesn't? " There isn't a single list of conditions that put someone in the "16-54 with health conditions" category. There's an algorithm being used which includes data like BMI, ethnicity, medical history, age and a bunch of other stuff, but that wasn't the case when the 9 categories were decided on. There might be one health event in the past that's been flagged up that, unless they go trawling through your entire life history, they may not realise because rarely nowadays do you have "your own" GP who knows every little thing about you. You're a number on a list of 20,000 others, as is the case in our practice. My health condition seems to be the almost non existent heart murmur. That was diagnosed when I was 6 weeks old and hasn't ever caused me any problems and I've been completely unmonitored for it since I had my son (he's now 18). Unless a GP did a trawl, they'd never know I had it but it's the only thing in my historical records that might have caused me to be called. What I'm trying to say us the GP hasn't got time to trawl the records of every person who is called for the vaccine. It's a vaccine being offered to every single adult so it's really immaterial. | |||

" Letters, illness and not being able to get through to rearrange are going to be the major factors. My Mum’s letter came the day of her appointment. Had she not been wfh she’d have been a “no show”. Context is important - 32 of thousands is tiny, and way below the expected no show rate. 32 of a small number is a bigger issue. | |||

" Sounds a little like you're trying to get the gp to convince you to your satisfaction why you need to have it. The fact you may or not have underlying conditions I'd have thought can be covered off at any point in time and really isn't contingent on a vaccine. Though like you, you'd hope someone would be able to tell you what they may be. | |||

" Your GP surgery can tell you what group you are in as you were either invited by a GP led initiative or alternatively the mass national vaccination service has been inviting people based on information submitted by your GP surgery. Only Group 4 and Group 6 (of the original 9) are based upon medical conditions and you can go and look up the health conditions yourself on the government website. They’ve both been finished for some time in our area. Everyone else is being vaccinated based on age (frontline NHS and carers aside). If you’ve only just been invited it’s because your area has moved on to the 40+ category. Have the jab or don’t, it’s up to you at the end of the day. No need to turn it into a conspiracy theory. | |||

Your immune system does not stop you catching covid, does not prevent you potentially having complications or issues with 'long' covid, and does not stop you passing it on to other people. | |||

"So my local vaccination clinic announced 32 people failed to turn up for there appointments "There’s nowhere on the website in Scotland to say why you aren’t able to attend for the vaccine. It’s also really difficult to try and reschedule it. People could’ve been ill that day or had other appointments. Until all the facts are known, these figures don’t mean anything. There is still a choice not to be vaccinated. | |||

As commendable as your actions are there are some people who will never be happy. Good for you I say. Your underlying health issues are as mysterious as the misdiagnoses I seem to keep getting from our heroes in the nhs. | |||

"A mate tore up the vaccine appointment letters for her family, she has decided that no one in the house is going to get vaccinated, as she doesn't want to get hers." Yes. My mother had a similar attitude when she didn't tell my Grandad about the phonecall from his GP to come for his. He found out later and booked his jab for 22nd January. Sadly he was taken to hospital with Covid on 22nd January and died on 25th January. Too late. That's what happens when idiots rip up letters/delete answerphone messages. | |||
