But sorry somebody who works 1 1/2 hours a week isn’t indispensable and hours could be made up by somebody else easily. The surgery obviously think she’s worth employing even if you don’t.

Vince Green Posted December 29, 2020 Report Share Posted December 29, 2020 Apparently they give you a card to say you have had the jab and it has the date(s) stamped on it. This will be your "Covid Passport" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted December 29, 2020 Report Share Posted December 29, 2020 I can't imagine there will be any forged cards - pigs might fly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIGHTCHOKE Posted December 29, 2020 Report Share Posted December 29, 2020 Gentlemen, the original reason behind the card was to note down the date of the first inoculation and highlight the required date (3 weeks) for the booster! But as for your conspiracy theories, if it keeps you all amused and off the streets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her next injection takes it to 95%. Better to give the second one to someone else in all reality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My godmother is in her mid 90’s but hasn’t been offered the vaccine yet, not has her partner who is in his late 70’s and super fit. As he is her full time carer I thought they would both be up there near the front of the queue, but I’ve no doubt so are many others.

TIGHTCHOKE Posted December 29, 2020 Report Share Posted December 29, 2020 Spoke to a Mate in Doncaster this morning, he is 73 and has a vaccination booked for early January. His wife does not have a booking yet. I guess it is horses for courses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The airlines are already saying we will need proof of vaccination to fly to a lot of destinations, and if we have got any ruddy sense we should insist on it for people coming here too.
