How should people report side effects and problems following vaccinations?

[SeePrice]

It seems very important to do this - but how?

[piglette]

I always tell the Zoe group. covid.joinzoe.com they have got nearly 5 million people reporting and is an excellent database.

[Adlon57 in reply to piglette]

Is that not for the effects of Covid 19, not the side effects of the vaccines, eg Astra Zeneca, Pfizer, Moderna, etc?

[piglette in reply to Adlon57]

I gave my side effects on there.

[Adlon57 in reply to piglette]

I suppose that would be under "problems"?🤔

[piglette in reply to Adlon57]

Yes. It asks if you feel OK and you say no. Then a whole load of questions comes up about reactions to the vaccines.

[Adlon57 in reply to piglette]

I never had Covid 19🤞 but I did have violent reactions to Astra Zeneca vaccine.

[piglette in reply to Adlon57]

That is what they are interested in. It is the bit where they ask do you feel physically OK, so click the bit that says you do not.

[Adlon57 in reply to piglette]

It has been updated recently???? The site did not recognise me [Northern Ireland?] Need not worry piglette! Let's just say Northern Ireland does know all about my reaction's to AZ vaccine, between 10/21 and 12/21 I was subjected to at least 10 tests/scans etc, mainly caused by my Schwannomatosis NF3 [Neurofibromatosis] to AZ vaccine. New vaccine and very rare medical condition. Northern Ireland NHS was using me as a lab. rat, I am probably been used now as an example of 'reactions to Astra Zeneca vaccine' in some sort of medical magazine?🙄🤔😆😆

[piglette in reply to Adlon57]

Can you rejoin? covid.joinzoe.com

[Adlon57 in reply to piglette]

Nope? 🥴Believe me I've tried!🙃😤

[piglette in reply to Adlon57]

What does it say?

[Adlon57 in reply to piglette]

I DID NOT HAVE COVID 19, BUT I DID HAVE A VIOLENT REACTION TO ASTRA ZENECA VACCINE [STILL RECOVERING] THIS ZOE IS NOT LOOKING FOR ME? Sorry piglette every time I tried to get in it would let me get in but would not allow me to push any figure buttons etc did not recognise me?

[piglette in reply to Adlon57]

How strange. I had to log in initially and answer a few questions. I have not had Covid that I know of, but had bad reactions to the vaccines and I filled them in on Zoe. Is there some button somewhere you need to press or something to tick to allow you to fill it in.

[Adlon57 in reply to piglette]

It must be NHS N.I. I rang up Health centre at 10am this morning they said they would ring back, that's 7 hours ago?

[Adlon57 in reply to Adlon57]

Sorry piglette not a good day!

[piglette in reply to Adlon57]

The NHS is on its knees in UK it seems.

[Adlon57 in reply to piglette]

the NHS in N.I. has politicians sticking their noses into the concoction as well?🙄

[Adlon57 in reply to Adlon57]

Sorry mixed message, this was ringing up Health centre for medical condition, indirectly might be to do with AZ side effects, they did ring back but took their time, as I said "not a good day" but trying to get into ZOE web site partially successful, in that I could enter but did not recognise me after that!

Long winded report, do not need this for a patient in a terminal condition, and early dementia, anyway being treated by NHS Northern Ireland.

[Adlon57 in reply to SeePrice]

Thanks SeePrice after long winded procedure have successfully filled in form, and fully acknowledged. As usual people in Northern Ireland as most here will acknowledge we have to go that extra mile [pages] to fill in such a procedure🙄👍

[Adlon57 in reply to piglette]

Could be I have not got a smart phone, hate the nosy buggers🥴😆

[piglette in reply to Adlon57]

I don’t use a smart phone for Zoe. I use a tablet.

[Adlon57 in reply to piglette]

Anyway piglette things are beginning to happen more blood tests for ?? [somebody somewhere is interested in me?] I feel like Dracula on a good day?🧛👍

[piglette in reply to Adlon57]

I have had endless blood tests. The trouble is my body does not like giving blood so I have a list of phlebotomists who refuse to come near me.

[Adlon57 in reply to piglette]

My arms can be very temperamental, giving blood, dry or excess, blood group is O positive so not even a rare group, but they seem to like taking the stuff out of me?🙄

[SeePrice in reply to piglette]

Why give Apple £1000 so your every twitch can be tracked? 🤔

[SeePrice in reply to Adlon57]

I just mailed the MHRA asking about Northern Ireland reporting, will send you their reply (don't hold your breath tho )

[Adlon57 in reply to SeePrice]

Probably just a technical glitch?

[Adlon57 in reply to Adlon57]

Could well be actually, my printer's just packed up🥴🥴

[SeePrice]

Thank you piglette
