My sister (50s) got the AstraZeneca one in the UK. She hasn't lived there for a good few years but still got the offer so flew over for it at her employer's expense.

I guess a sparks could be called to any part of the hospital incl HDU and the Covid wards?  And if he did get sick, could they get someone else within 24hrs to fix the equipment?

People often forget that the security guard may be the most important person in an office block because he's the one who unlocks the front doors for everyone else!

You would think that anyone who works in a hospital would be gettin the jab as a priority,i do know hospitals have contractors who might not necessarily work in the hospital full time but would be on call 24/7.

Good luck to your Ma.

I wish there was a register where anti vaxxers could be sign and their feelings made known.

That way it would  free up vaccines for those that need it/ want it.

Perhaps Gemma & John could lead the charge.

They'd probably take the appointment and not turn up....even though they don't want the vaccine..nobody else should!!

She admits it costs a fortune to look that cheap.
