covid vaccine

[Brendaf]

hi I read recently that anyone with a blood cancer can now book a further covid booster? I can’t find the information now.

Does this help?

Thank you for your help. I believe we can book from Monday 18th

So I believe. Being an old crumbly, I don't have to worry about qualifying. I have a 'flu jab booked for the 23rd but don't know whether they are planning to do covid boosters at the same time.

I think you need to be on active treatment, not just asprin, with watch and wait.

[Brendaf in reply to Cat_lady52]

No all blood cancers can have the covid booster I’ve had all 7 upto now

[Cat_lady52 in reply to Brendaf]

Thank you, didn't know, still learning 🙂

I had a text giving me a date and time for flu jab. A week later had another text for Covid Booster- 7th one. Wales on the ball for a change. So maybe a but slow in letting you know.

I’m in my 40s and got a text yesterday from my GP surgery inviting me for a joint Covid jab (my 6th) and flu jab appointment in a couple of weeks’ time.

[Brendaf in reply to ETket]

Thank you I think I can phone on Monday to book mine and I’ve already booked my flu jab

The risk of getting blood clots after getting a Covid vaccine is far too great for me to even consider getting a Covid shot.

[Brendaf in reply to Bill209]

I do understand it’s a personal thing

Yep, available from next week. NHS contacted me directly to book an appointment.
