Sorry Paul I miss read your message and I see you haven't had your first vac yet. I still haven't had a date for mine so was wondering how old you are and also if you have been asked to shield? Thanks

Hi I'm 56 and have other underlying health issues no not been asked to shield unless I show symptoms and have had quite a few hospital admissions so been tested regularly

Hi Paul I'm around your age as well but still haven't had a letter yet but I guess it won't be to long then until I have mine 🤞 Are you keen to have it or are you worried about receiving it?
