So - the deed is done, AstraZenica version. Second one about May 23rd. They are telling people to wait for half an hour before going home, here. I guess that is in case of allergic reaction? Told not to lift anything heavy with the injected arm for two days as well.
@Algarveaddick I presume you're still living in Portugal as I thought the EU weren't using the AZ vaccine

But that can’t be right! Everyone in the U.K. hasn’t been done yet

Yes I am still in Portugal. I was quite surprised too, I expected the Pfizer version.
Me and the missus both had ours today (both in our 20s) after a letter saying we are eligible. Given the AZ jab, both feel absolutely fine so far. Quick process all round, impressed.
FFS why are we expecting teachers to go back to work without vaccinations? If you are a local authority adult social care manager who works from home, never sees a patient, does all your supervisions by MS teams - you get the vaccine. If you are a primary school teaching assistant working across several groups of children you are expected to go into work and have the little darlings grabbing you and coughing in your face all day long and wearing a mask is frowned on. Utter hypocrisy.
Rubbish. If any social care manager gets the vacine it's because of their age not because of their job. Primary school pupils are very very low on the scale of covid infection. The older you are or, if you have underlying health risks, you get priority because you are higher risk.
"Rubbish". Where do you get your information? I know for a fact that social care managers have been eligible for the vaccine BECAUSE OF THEIR JOB. I work in the health and social care field. I am a manger. I have been vaccinated. I don't see patients. You also state that primary school pupils are "very low on the scale of covid infections". Utter bs. We don't really know.
Having had my vaccination on Saturday afternoon (thereby having 1 more shot than Charlton that day) I developed painful joints that night. Normally, that would be ok but I’m 3 weeks post op for the new hip. I took a codeine and slept ok. I put it down to maybe overdoing the walking even though I know I haven’t been. Last night, the pain levels increased so much, codeine didn’t touch it and my leg on the operated side was covered in a rash of purple spots. An ambulance was called, the crew gave me morphine and off to A&E I went.
Bottom line is, the hip is intact and no blood clots or DVT but the pain is still in my groin, knee, back and hip. I’m now home and started to shiver a bit this morning. Whilst the docs were mystified as to the cause, they did suggest it could be side effects of the jab but can’t understand why the spots (broken blood vessels) are only on one leg.
I really hope it’s a temporary issue caused by the vaccine side effects and I don’t struggle again today.

The official NHS advice post vaccination with the AZ vaccine is to observe the recipient during the vaccination process and then allow to go home. No requirement here for a wait before being discharged.

Best of luck mate, hope you are feeling much better soon.

After having my first dose of the AstraZeneca on Saturday, I was extremely ill yesterday. Fortunately I'm more or less OK today, just a slight headache.

Both Mss AA and I had the AZ and were told to wait at the vaccination 'centre' (a shopfront on Rosendale Rd) for 15 mins before going anywhere.

Unless you've got German or French ancestry, on whom according to their Governments it doesn't work, you're fine for the AZ.
The day after my AZ. Feel tired and have slept most of the morning. I don’t know how much is vaccine and how much tired after a busy week and pleased to let Mr T look after the hens. Arm seems fine. A friend the same age (57) had her AZ last week and no side effects.
I can't believe you're 57. Two years ago in Belgium, you didn't look a day over 54.
Ive always been good at football but, since the jab, I’m now dazzlingly good. My lovemaking is now bordering on porno professional. And my cooking is now probably surpassing the quality of Ramsay.
I asked these questions a few days back, but surprisingly no one replied. I will in due course be getting my second Pfizer jab. Does the second jab contain the same dosage as the first one.....and is it exactly the same serum or as a second dose is it designed in a slightly different format? Just curious?

What a weekend you've had - I do hope you're feeling better now. If it's vaccine side effects I'm sure it will be temporary. I bet you're sick of hospitals by now. Take care.

I know. At least I had Charlton and the rugby to get me through it. Oh... Thank you, I’m really hoping it is the vaccine as I want to get back in my feet, literally. Cheers and take care yourself.

It’s also made me incredibly big-headed.
And delusional.
Sorry about the delay in responding to this but I’ve been in the middle of breaking the keepy uppy record whilst simultaneously making love to my wife and cooking the world’s largest omelette.

It was like one of those sleeps you get after a skinful, when you sleep very deeply but wake up early not feeling very refreshed!
