Getting GP practice to enter vaccine details onto system

Hi everyone


Has anyone had issues getting their Dulwich GP practice to enter details of vaccines, following a vaccine they had in Wales (or Scotland)?


I had my 1st and 2nd vaccines at my Mum's GP practice in Wales as I've been looking after her during lockdown. I have the blue card with the vaccine details on. I asked my GP practice in Dulwich if they can put my vaccine details onto the NHS system so I can get a Covid pass. They wont do this and say "We need this information to come from a central authorization source before we can upload it onto the system". Meanwhile my Mum's GP practice wont send me an email to confirm I've had the vaccines as they say they're too busy.


Has anyone else had a similar experience, after having vaccines in Wales or Scotland?

I have heard of a similar problem regarding a Scots vaccine. There are 4 autonomous NHS units in the UK (England, NI, Wales and Scotland) following devolution and as a matter of principle, so far as I can see, they don't/ won't cooperate. Your best port of call may be Helen Hayes - as it's a national (UK wide) matter. It's clearly ridiculous, the Welsh NHS system will have the details necessary, and they should share them with the English NHS system.

Thank you ianr, I phoned 0300 303 5667 and they're mailing a paper certificate to me. But won't be able to get an electronic certificate, as "the Welsh system and the English system are not speaking to each other". Until this issue is sorted, I won't be able to travel ...... aaarrrggghhhh ......

    • But you have to assess whether these persistent drivers are creating more safety issues than diverting emergency vehicles on a longer route and clearly they are not. The fact members of the pro-closure lobby have built their argument on this actually shows how desperate, some would say selfish, they are to have the junction closed and just the way they want it. And unfortunately they seem to have the council over a barrel on something as the council weakly concedes to their position without hesitation. Was this not borne from an FOI that said one of the emergency services confirmed that they had not been consulted on the new DV design that Cllr Leeming then said was actually a mistake by the emergency services - and then it's a case of whether you believe Cllr Leeming or not....and his track record is hardly unblemished when it comes to all things LTNs?
    • A song thrush visited my back garden today. I watched as it smashed open a snail by whacking it against the patio.
    • I have no doubt that local people are genuinely involved (and personally can understand their not wanting to publicise their involvement). That said the proliferation of One groups across London and the degree of co-ordination suggests it is more than just a local grassroots group. I’m not really that interested, except that many of their supporters do bang on about transparency and accountability. I would be interested in the substance of their latest missive. Who has been pressurising the emergency services and how? Who genuinely believes that people are partially covering their plates and driving through due to inadequate signage? Sounds a little ridiculous / desperate. It feels like it may be time for them to start coming to terms with the changes tbh.
