Will she be getting the second jab in 3 or 12 weeks? What have they said to her? Here in West Lancs a person first jabbed before Dec 31st get the second jab 3 weeks hence but that might change next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw something earlier that stated that appointments for second jabs are being cancelled. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are lots of stories about this, many of which are contradictory, some health providers say that if you have already had the first jab you get the second after 3 weeks but if not it is 12 weeks.

I can only speak for my local area but they put a message out tonight for any staff not to turn up tomorrow onward for 2nd jabs.

His info said that they're doing 2nd jabs for the rest of this week but from next week everyone will move to the 12 week gap in between doses. Their reason for this is that they need enough time to contact everyone to rearrange and they didn't want to risk wasting any of the vaccine this week.

Different country as well. I imagine any non-staff may still get it this week as trying to contact that many people is a mare. I only know as I saw the message on the webpage. I havn't had any contact from health records directly. Edited January 5, 2021 by Dinglebert 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need some input from one of our NHS members I am NHS 🙂. There is a different picture depending on CCG, up until today West Lancs position was that everyone who had received their first jab on or before 31 December would get their second jab in 3 weeks time but one of the local practices announced today that this was no longer the case. I live in West Lancs but work for the NHS in a different area outside of West Lancs. My husband’s Trust are giving the second jab to staff to those whose 2nd appointment was up to yesterday but from today onwards it would be a 12 week gap. In my own Trust only 100 of our staff have been vaccinated so far by a neighbouring Trust under reciprocity arrangements. We were informed a couple of weeks before Christmas that we would be receiving the Oxford vaccine not Pfizer. Our own vaccination programme will begin on Saturday and we are aiming to have all staff vaccinated with their first jab in 2 weeks!

We need some input from one of our NHS members Hi Everyone. I can only speak for North Central London CCG but we were told yesterday that we could only give second jabs up to and including 11th January. From 12th Jan we move to a 12 week recall. We've now cancelled those who were booked from 12th and will re-book them as their 12 week dates fall due. The good news is that next week we are getting a drop of the AZ vaccines. We don't know how many until they arrive - which makes pre-planning a bit difficult but we'll sort it. The brilliant news is that tomorrow we can start calling our age 75 to 80 group. This is entirely due to the fact that all our over 80s have been so uncomplainingly accommodating in travelling to the hub (which is some distance from their own surgery) and because of that they are all done - apart from the decliners. As I say, I can only speak for NCL CCG. I am very aware that some of you are not in such a fortunate position and have yet to hear about sites etc and I feel for you. Hopefully it will be resolved quickly and the hubs can get vaccinating quickly. Best wishes all. Jane 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ardennais Posted January 5, 2021 #1673 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Really good to hear that all the over 80s in parts of London have already been done, but I’m still concerned that this age group hasn’t even been given an appointment yet around here. As a matter of interest, how much notice is usually given, and is it posted? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
