3rd covid booster

[Jynx93]

Had my 3rd covid booster on Saturday. I can’t say I recommend having your Peg jab the night before! Felt horrendous for a couple of days after. I live in the South West and had mine 5 months after my 2nd jab

We’re you invited for the vaccine? I can’t seem to get anywhere with my GP or vaccine centre. Whereabouts in the south west are you?Thanks

I live in Bristol. I had a text from GP surgery to arrange an appointment at a vaccine centre

I’m in Exeter. My GP says they haven’t received the vaccine yet. I guess I must be patient. 😂

I have no idea why I got mine early. Maybe Bristol is just ahead of the places in the South West

I'm in Plymouth and my Heamatologist told me that letters inviting for 3rd vaccine are imminent. However, that was last week and I've not heard anything yet .....

I’m sure it won’t be too long coming

I’ve got mine booked for next week, live in the north east

Great advise, thanks for that

I had an invite from my heamo clinic so I enquired with my GP as that’s a lot closer. I was advised I had to wait 6 months which is end of October after last jab. So I’ll wait a while.

The clinic wasn't inviting you for a third vaccine as opposed to a booster? For the former I understood you don't have to wait six months but do for the booster.

[Jynx93 in reply to DJK12]

The 3rd jab is a booster. I had mine early. Not everyone is getting a 3rd jab. You then have another one 6 months after that. Just to keep your immunity up I suppose.

[Wyebird]

It was for a booster sorry I misled you xx

[DJK12 in reply to Wyebird]

It's all very confusing!

I had my third vaccine today. Was able to get a PSD form from my GP and therefore could just walk into a vaccine clinic to get it done. I had to give them the PSD form and the doctor on duty administered the dose. It’s my understanding this is a third primary vaccine and then a booster will be given in six months time.

Here’s hoping everyone else gets theirs soon. Xxx
