I have had an appointment sent to me for a 4th vaccination. I have already had the booster in October. I am taking Tacrolimus and steroids for seronegative inflammatory arthritis. Just wondered if anyone else has heard about their 4th injection? I live in North Wales.

I had my 4th vaccination / second booster o n 9th october. The nurse said its given due to immunosuppression from the medication. Its to further boost our immunity and 🤞avoid serious repercussions should we catch the unmentionable.
🤦that should've been ...4th jab on 9th jan. 90 days after the 3rd primary or fourth booster sos x
I had a text message, yet when i asked my dr about it she checked and said they know nothing about it.xxxx
Thanks…… phoned my surgery and they said it was for immunosupressent, but i just wondered why i was having 4th after having a Booster. Oh well i will ask when i turn up for it. Thankyou
Hi, I've just had a letter from Rheumatology asking me to get the 3rd jab if I haven't already (I have) and saying I should have a 4th when I can and to use that letter as proof of entitlement if I need it. I'm not due the 4th til mid Feb anyway, but am undecided at the mo whether or not for have it 🤔
You need that 4th jab if immune suppressed .
The booster you had should have been recorded as your 3rd primary dose and the 4th one you have been offered is the real booster.
It just takes a while to get these properly recorded on your Heath records! Confused? Yes no surprise as many health professionals seem to be too!! 🙄🤦🏻♀️
Thanks. yes so confusing! I will go for the 4th
Hello Nainy . Yes that’s correct - I am also I. North Wales - Wrexham area ; I had my 3rd Primary dose in November and my next vaccination - now called the Booster is scheduled for end of February Has anyone else in North Wales /Wales had their 4th vaccination/ Booster now ?
I’m not due mine til February I’m hoping that theyil sent me a letter nurse who did my third jab wrote booster on card
I had my 4th vaccination today and I’m in Scotland
Hi I’m in south west wales and have had a fourth vaccine (end of December) the first three were primaries making the ‘full’ coverage for those with suppressed immunity the fourth was the booster the same as the third for the general public
