Vaccines for moderate/high risk people?

Has anyone in the moderate/high risk group (not extremely vulnerable) been contacted for a vaccine?


I'm still in my 30s but recently developed a condition that puts me at higher risk - but it's not an obvious/clear cut one. So not sure if I would be contacted.

I would check with your GP that (1) your condition is one which would bring forward a call for vaccination outside your age group and that (2) if it is, the right information had been logged in the right places. I have a 30 year old (South East London) acquaintance without a spleen, for instance, who has now had the first shot. So young people with the 'right' conditions are being called forward. But if your diagnosis is recent the relevant details may not have yet been flagged to the right database for call-up.

As far as I can say from my own experience and speaking with others who are categorised as clinically vulnerable, we have all received at least one text message with invitation to book a slot for vaccination from either the GP or the national centre. Yes, perhaps you need to ring your GP.

    • Because the council responsible for it is far-left....   And you haven't answered whether it is worth diverting emergency vehicles because a few cars drive through the LTN and why some lobby groups have been so desperate to close it to emergency vehicles.    Emergency services hate non-permeable junctions as they lengthen response times....f you remember it's why the council had to redesign the DV junction because emergency services kept telling them they needed to be able to drive through it...but the council resisted and resisted until they finally relented because the emergency services said their LTN had increased response times....sorry if the truth gets in the way of a good story but those are facts. The council was putting lives at risk because they refused to open the junction to emergency services. Why? What could have been the motivation for that? So, in fact, it was the emergency services who forced the council (kicking and screaming) to remove the permanent barriers and allow emergency services access. So the council finally opened the junction to emergency services and is now coming back to re-close part of the junction.  Why?  Perhaps you should be asking who is lobbying the council to close the junction or parts of it or why the council is happy to waste so much of our money on it - who are they representing as even their own consultation demonstrated they did not have support from the local community for the measures? The results showed the majority of local residents were against the measure...but they are going ahead with them anyway.   In time, I am sure the truth will come to light and those rewponsbile will be held accountable but you have to admit there is something very unusual going on with that junction - its the very definition of a (very expensive) white elephant.
