Today I went to the Queen Marys hospital and got my first vaccine jab, the Oxford Astra Zenca one, it was actually done by my GP. I didn’t feel the jab and I hate needles.
Very well organised by the NHS, thank you.

Week 44 – December 28th 2020 – Week 2 of Tier 4 restrictions
Claire and I watched a very powerful first episode of Casualty last night (first episode) since filming was allowed after the various lockdowns. I sensed that they were having a dig about some of the decisions made regarding the NHS by the government.

I was finally able to have a flu vaccine jab, my first one for a few years, but I thought with Covid19, to have some more protection was better.

Week 40 – November 30th 2020 – Week 1 of Tier 2 restrictions
So on this day December 2nd, the first vaccine was approved to fight back against this killer virus Covid19.
The UK has become the first country in the world to approve the Pfizer/BioNTech corona virus vaccine, paving the way for mass vaccination.
Britain’s medicines regulator, the MHRA, says the jab, which offers up to 95% protection against Covid19 illness, is safe to be rolled out.
The first doses are already on their way to the UK, with 800,000 due in the coming days, Pfizer said.
Health Secretary Matt Hancock said the NHS will contact people about jabs.
Elderly people in care homes and care home staff have been placed top of the priority list, followed by over-80s and health and care staff.
But because hospitals already have the facilities to store the vaccine at -70C, as required, the very first vaccinations are likely to take place there – for care home staff, NHS staff and patients – so none of the vaccine is wasted.
A further 648 deaths within 28 days of a positive Covid19 test were recorded in the UK on Wednesday, with another 16,170 cases reported.
