And when you attend your hearing aid referral, they’ll ask you to accept your euthanasia referral, and mysteriously the appointment for the latter will come before the former .... ... ....

Worth looking around if you're in a long waiting list - I found a pharmacy yesterday offering next day NHS flu jabs; wife and I went in this morning.

Normally my GP is VERY keen on us getting flu jabs
They are so determined I ride past and half expect to feel a 'little prick' and see a blow dart in my arm and a nurse waving out of a window saying my flu jab has been done!!!
last year they booked us in but then had to cancel because they were running at nearly 100% take up - whereas they only get enough vaccines for their normal take up - so they ran out
Luckily I thought to ask at the pharmacy and they booked us in the next day.
I also told the the GP what had happened and they said they would start telling people to ask there

The pharmacy I went to is in the same building as a GP practice.
The GP had 5 tables armed by receptionists to check-in the long queue of people for jabs; the pharmacy had no demand at all.

Yet, too many people stalling until shamed/educated into it getting it methinks.
That’s precisely the problem ! Uneducated and taken in by all the lies that’s been spread ! Read the science!

Many people are, quite frankly, afraid of 'science' or at the very least intimidated by it. I don't know what the answer is, sadly. The fact that many non-specialist schoolteachers have a very low level of scientific literacy doesn't help improve matters, either.

I had to go to the Doc to get signed off work for two days with a bad back; I asked for my flu shot while I was there so they jabbed me quickly.
I told them they could give me a shot but I didn't want to look.
The nurse told me that I was let off today but she expected me to watch and take notes next time...

Had my flu jab, no side- effects, waiting for Covid booster…why wouldn’t you?
