i just want to warn some people if your have any health issues and been ask to have your over 80s Covid booster and flu jab at same time ..

my carer Alan was health was ok with few ache pains , did have heart risk in his family , was well and active before having Covid booster + flue jab in the other arm . He had no adverse reaction in the past. But on Oct 3rd Oct he had both jabs , both arms were very sore for 24-48hrs , that past then a dry cough set in . after 5days he try cough mixture , on 7th day he coughing so bad , i asked him go see Doctor . The next morning i got up , saw he was still in bed , put kettle on went back gave bed a shake , saw dog go up lick his face , no response . i called 999 , neighbour call in did CPR till paramedic arrived . They couldn't revive him .

It still such a shock, for some one he was on whole fit and well.

RIP Alex Scanes-Johnson past away 16-10-24
