Vaccine rollout in wales

[tricks]

In Mcr my mid 80s in laws have both had a first jab. My mid 80s parents in Cardiff, both with health issues haven’t heard a thing.

Is that normal so far in Cardiff/ Wales. ?

Well we are facing unprecedented times

The local gp is contacting eligible groups

Could it be better and faster ? Of course , but the sheer size of this operation is massive

In Wales we lag behind everything 😴 and we love and accept it .

In Israel 14 million done, folk go to parked lorries multiple venues , cut red tape to get it done, whilst we put folk through diversity training first .

My brother lives in Cheshire and is 80 with no underlying health issues. He had his first jab before Christmas and is scheduled to have the second next week. His friends in the same age group have also been vaccinated.

Yeah they’ve only had 6 months to prepare for it.....useless twats probably hoping a few more will die anyway to get the pension bill down and be less of a burden on the beloved nhs they’ve run into the ground for the last 10 years.....

Re: Vaccine rollout in wales

I’m not too confident in the ability to systematically contact every person in sequence, I’m sure a good few will simply be accidentally missed out

Can we get away from the idea that it's the NHS? Drop the N. As far as London government is concerned it's the England Health Service. Wales, Scotland and the northern part of Ireland which is becoming more a part of Eire, feed off the scraps at the table. Boris has taken back control on behalf of England. Yesterday's figure was 1.1 million vaccinations in England (a friend's mum is about to have her second) and 0.2 million spread across the rest of the UK.....the bit where the votes dont matter so much, putting it bluntly.

Re: Vaccine rollout in wales

I went for a blood test this morning, thousands must go for one every day, why can’t they give the COVID jab then while we’re in the building, saves a bit of messing about. I’ve got a bit of a funny story about my surgery visit this morning as well. I’ve been having a bit a trouble with my shoulder lately and have had a couple of phone appointments with my GP, her telling me to get back in touch if it persists. It has persisted so seeing as I was at the surgery today I thought I’d make another appointment. The receptionist tells me that they can only accept telephone requests. So she tells me to phone her, I’m then sat about five yards away from her, sat down phoning her. No answer, I’m called in for my blood test and put my phone on speaker, not wanting to lose my place in the queue. I tell the nurse the reason why my phone is on speaker to her amusement.
Anyway, blood test over I go back into the waiting room, phone tone still on speaker. The receptionist asks me if I’m phoning the correct number as their phone isn’t ringing. I show her my phone, it’s the correct number with the word ‘Doctor’ on my screen. I assure her that I’m not cheating on them with another surgery. She then gives me another number to ring, still not coming through to them, cue panic behind the counter, “The phones aren’t working, the phones aren’t working”. I wonder how many patients were ringing in to no avail until my episode? Anyway, she gave me my appointment over the counter then...the old face to face ways are sometimes the best:hehe:

For anyone in Cardiff or the Vale wondering how the mass vaccination programme will proceed locally there is some information on this newsletter (pages 2-3) from the Chief Executive of the Cardiff and Vale University Health Board

You do talk some bollox sometimes. Wales has had the correct amount of vaccine as per the population. It is the Welsh givernment saying that. So are you saying it's their fault?
