thank you to my GP

I want to give thanks to my GP for recognising that I need my covid booster. I was called up by text to get my flu jab and covid booster. Today I had one injection in each arm. The doctor who was doing my flu jab told the nurses in the room that I was having a covid booster because of "my underlying health condition".

I expect a bit of a sore arm and that's all.

Glad to read that your GP is on the ball re; your Covid booster.....it’s so reassuring when they are. My GP kindly arranged for me to have both of mine two weeks ago and, had no after effects other than just a slight tenderness in the ‘Covid’ arm and, no issues at all with the ‘flu’ arm.... this was my 5th Covid inoculation, so guess I’m getting used to it now....😂🤣
