My husband is 74 with ill health and I am 66 with health problems. Last week my husband was offered the vaccine and as his unofficial carer (we do not claim carers allowance) they offered me the vaccine too, I did not ask for it and was very surprised to be offered. I realise how very fortunate we are and that others may not be happy that we had had it. I told my supposed best friend who proceeded to tell me how unfair the system was the general assumption being I should have refused the vaccine, not even sure she was happy my husband had had it. One of her children had it because their job is connected to the health service but she mainly works from home and I was pleased for her. If the position had been reversed I know without any doubt I would have been happy for her to have had it. I felt undecided what to do and now feel really guilty. I honestly feel I will lose a friend over this.
