Covid Flu and RSV jabs - you have until the 19th of Dec to get these .

[gabys1st]

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.

Also, RSV jabs are only available to specific age groups and your GP will notify you when you're eligible. I think it's for those over 75. Nice to be too young for something.

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?
