My son had his first jab in Wales. He has now finished uni and is back home in England. He doesn't have a date for a second jab.

Sure he could go to a "grab a jab" - but he needs the Pfizer - any ideas how to proceed ?

They are doing Pfizer at some sites, where do you live, why not look it up?

Get him to phone 119 if GP surgery can’t sort. Or the Welsh NHS equivalent of 119? or as you work in IT for the NHS can’t you hack the system? :whistle: :laugh:

you’re in Birmingham though? Plenty of walk in centres offering jabs to over 18s, which will be Pfizer (not Edgbaston though). Make sure he takes his card with him as proof of first jab

I have my 2nd Pfizer booked for Thursday.
Fresh off the press from my crazy uncle though

I can’t report him as blocked, my uncle sent it to my Mum and asked how she feels knowing her daughter in law (my wife) is one of them.

We had people handing out anti vax flyers the other day, they tried to hand me one but I walked around and said no thanks, the guy followed me and started banging on about the great reset and depopulation, he was saying about the depop stuff in front on my kids and that the government was looking to kill us.

I got my kids into the car and let rip at this guy, I said what with the depop stuff? It’s to do with climate change? His reply was no it’s for money and resource hoarding, I said you know how stupid that is? Your dumb flyer is claiming they will leave ½ million people alive globally, what good is money in a world with no people? No industry, no consumers, no large scale food production, no need for money.

What good is resource hoarding in a world with massively reduced resource consumption? There is no need.

I did lose my temper a little and told him to never approach someone with kids again, he walked off saying typical sheep the world won’t miss me in 6 months.

I then had to spend time telling an upset 7yr old that Boris isn’t trying to kill her.

Thing is, if anyone's the sheep, THEY'RE the sheep as their covid-sceptic/anti-vaxxer propaganda hasn't changed one iota despite the massively-increased level of knowledge about C-19 itself; they are still parrotting the nonsense they started to spout eighteen months ago, with the anti-vaxx stuff added in the past 6 - 9 months.

None of it ever changes. They have no answers to any sensible questions you might ask, as you found out. When they cannot even begin to give any rational explanation for their reasoning (if we can call it that) it just shows how very, very indoctrinated they are. They are members of a cult.

Nutters. Just hope they don't get long covid, then they will know about it :rolleyes:.

Daughter, just 18, is booked into the local pharmacy on Thursday morning for her first.

Pretty much this, the guy went red faced and looked like he was about to explode when I pointed out the value of cash in a world where it's become totally irrelevant.

But what annoyed me more is he did this in front of my kids, me alone fine I will laugh it off and point out they have zero evidence and should probably seek medical help, but leave my kids out of it.

Where do you meet these idiots?
I've not encountered any...except one idiot driving an Uber, luckily it was only a 10 minute journey. He didn't get a tip but did get a crap star rating :laugh:
