I don't like taking medication, so I'm not likely to take it before I need it, just in case I need it later !

As it happens, I've not felt 'groggy' in the days following the jab anyway...

How is it all going, now, Colin?

(I don't like taking medication, either, there have been many serious problems over the decades, discovered years later).

Thanks for asking !

I've had no untoward symptoms of any kind since the jab.

Just waiting for the second one !

Well, you're informing us how the vaccinations are going where you are, but we don't know where that is...

Over 5million more Britons will be invited to receive a coronavirus jab from Monday. In a major milestone for the vaccination programme, letters will start being sent to those in England in the next two priority groups. This includes 4.6million in their 70s.

Update:

I had a Covid-19 test on Tuesday, 19th January, & it was negative !

The testing place was deserted when I arrived & the same by the time I left.

Out of interest, why were you being tested?

My local council has requested we all get tested & via Facebook gave a link to the form to apply.
