You may have heard on the news or read about how the NHS already has 70% more beds than this time last year filled with peeps who have flu etc.   and is  expecting this number to increase over the Holiday.

As you also probably know Pharmacies are having a difficult time .  If you use Peckham Rye station, shop in Rye lane or Choumert Rd,  are eligible for the Jabs you might like to get   at Ropharms Pharmacy at 169 Rye lane,   phone: 020 77322 4560 opening hrs 9-6pm Mondays to Fridays. All you need to take with you is your NHS number, no appointment necessary .  It is a family run business and Mr. Austin  goes out of his way to help, also have 30 good reviews on google reviews.

Walk-in Covid-19 vaccinations are actually available until 31 January.  See https://www.nhs.uk/vaccinations/covid-19-vaccine/ for eligibility details and the link to https://www.nhs.uk/nhs-services/covid-19-services/covid-19-vaccination-services/find-a-walk-in-covid-19-vaccination-site/.  FWIW I get mine done at Kristal who have always seemed pretty efficient.

https://www.nhs.uk/vaccinations/ covers all vaccination types.  RSV is done by GP practices.

Flu vaccinations (65+, pregnant, higher risk, or private) are available from some pharmacies, some by appointment.  I've checked one of the latter and they have dates shown available well into next year. https://www.nhs.uk/service-search/pharmacy/find-a-pharmacy-that-offers-free-flu-vaccination

The original and current title of this thread is "Covid Flu and RSV jabs - you have until the 19th of Dec to get these ." I suggest it be revised tomorrow the 19th -- I've never seen online booking available for same-day.

I've been absolutely inundated with emails from various places connected with the NHS telling me I am eligible and inviting me to go for these jabs.

I had them both ages ago.

Surely there is some central database showing who has already  had them?

    • Well I don't know, and nor do you. Sitting MPs change their parties.
    • The Greens are knocking on the door of Labour in a few wards, so yes, there is some voter swing in play from some local canvassing. Elected officials jumping ship is nothing new. Political careerism is also nothing new. On a local level, all candidates for election start as committed party political activists. That's how they get selected to stand. But politics is also a long game. Far better to stay and be part of any swing when it inevitably comes (as it always does), than to close the door altogether imo. I think James failing to become leader probably was the key factor in his decision, but leaving for another party effectively means there is no way back. Maybe he is going to work himself into the future leadership of the Greens instead. Time will tell.  Edited to add that while I can understand why former Labour supporters feel disillusioned with the current government (both local and national), it's important to remember how bad things were under the last one and the coalition before it. It's going to take time for any government to rebuild the economy and pay down the national debt.
    • Err, are you saying that the Greens are not a political rival to Labour? Funny how those convictions only come to light when many politicians don't get what they want....do you honestly think that Cllr McAsh would have defected had he been allowed to lead Southwark council? Absolutely 1000% not.
    • He's not acting according to his convictions though, he's acting entirely according to his own ambition and self interest.  I'd be very concerned if I was a parent of a child in the Primary School he teaches at. His new party advocate teaching primary school children how to use crack cocaine and heroin: https://metro.co.uk/2026/02/21/green-party-says-primary-school-children-should-be-taught-to-take-drugs-safely-27031825/   Anyway, I feel we will finally be well rid of him. I don't believe he will stand in this ward. He will have a much better chance of election in Nunhead and Queens Road.
