Over here all 12 year olds and up have been getting vaccinated for at least a month now.

My 19 year old grand daughter was invited to get vaccinated in June.
She went along, they vaccinated her, because, they had her down as a health worker.
She works in a pub!
Her mum is a health worker!

The other day I received a letter from NHS Scotland, advising me that any 12 - 17 year-olds in regular contact with me could apply to be vaccinated.

The reason is that I am apparently "coded immunosuppressive".

I am??? Since when??? Neither my GP nor the various consultants I have seen over the last couple of years has ever mentioned this.

It sounds from reading the letter that I am regarded as "vulnerable" and I have a sneaking suspicion that I should perhaps have been shielding/self-isolating for the last 18 months!

If that is true then I am glad I didn't know about it and I certainly don't intend to start now!
