Arrrgh!!
So oldest Asturian is 18 and has had Pfizer No1 vax 4 weeks ago. Annoyingly, despite the clinical evidence that says a 3 week gap is safe , the NHS has changed the 8 week gap thing from a guideline to a "not before" rule.
Not even the walk ins will 2nd vax him!!
Any ideas for getting a quicker 2nd vax?
[the 2nd vax appt date is set for when were in Asturias for the summer]

Apparently if you search online youngsters have been sharing details of places willing to ignore the guidelines.

That is strange. I thought just a couple of weeks ago I walked past some advert that is part of a campaign urging young people to accelerate their second jab and giving a link for further info. Sorry I don't remember the link (or even paid attention in the first instance) ...

appaz the "grab a jab" campaign is done for time being.
There are still walkin centres but the 8 week gap is being observed as a strict rule where we asked (we tried two walk in centres today)

got to say, it's a fooking cheek to be planning to force kids to have vaccines by September but doing FA to bounce things a bit earlier so those that want them can go on a summer holiday

well, some people's friends are their family etc
point is that, if he is desperate to do what the govt wants him to do to the point of coercion, WHY NOT LET HIM DO IT

Yup, we should be doing everything possible to speed things along and reduce friction for those that want to get it out of the way ASAP.

Is Scotland seriously only just getting to people in their mid-30s? How is that not a massive scandal?

I think my invitation was for late May (but then I am an elderly thirtysomething) and then there was a real slowdown while they topped up the over 50s

Does seem pretty stupid not to let kids get jabbed early if they want to

Sounds like your PCN Asti, mine will stick a needle in anyone 21 days after the first

Can't you just go further afield and find a place that will jab him Asti? I mean, if this is the difference between going on holiday or not, it's worth going to Liverpool (or wherever) if a walkin centre there will do it?

asti - send the nipper to the town hall. Walk-in every Saturday and Sunday.
Same with the town next door (down south).

Look for the "getjabbed" sub reddit. People report walk ins that will do under 8 weeks on there, although your son may need to move fast to act on those reports.
Its definitely not all walk ins applying the 8 week limit because two of my colleagues got early second doses at the weekend.

Not sure regulated professionals should be procuring breach of national medical guidelines.

You may get away from the SRA, but you will never get away from your conscience. Think on your sins.

You're right actually, I've thought about it and it was wrong of me. Asturias, quickly, send your son over and I'll suck the experimental vaccine poison put of his arm!
