Who is the first person on GN to get vaccinated?

My Mum and Aunt both have appointments next week, both are well over 80.
Looks like it all happening ! Fantastic!

Marvellous ! Congratulations Bellanonna!

Fantastic. Bellanona always comes across as lovely.

Congratulations Bellasnonna

Congratulations Bellanonna ??.
Looking forward to a walk in the park soon.

Oh that's excellent! Good on Bellasnana. How is she feeling?

Well done Bellanonna
I am so pleased the programme is being rolled out so quickly.

I see my Scottish phone has changed Bellasnonna to Bellasnana!

Congratulations Bellanonna
Take it easy now

Jane, actually that’s the lovely lady who lives in Malta. My name’s slightly different

I went to Guys at 11. Very well organised. We were given a coffee afterwards and told to wait for 20 minutes just in case of adverse reaction. I was so excited to be getting a train for the first time in months. I walked to the station (just under half hour each way) and am delighted that I clocked up
10,000 steps on my Fitbit. I feel fine and privileged too. Poor DH is in hospital with third dose of sepsis this year, and received his vaccine in there. Apparently I shall be “safe” after mid January but I will still practise all the safety measures
We’ve been told to do. I will, however, hug my little grandchildren ?

Suki70, I can’t wait!

Whop, whoop Bellanonna a GN pioneer ??

Had the phone call today DH and I (we are in west Suffolk) go for vaccination next Wednesday 16th. And then again for the second vaccination on 6th January. Both very pleased (and relieved)

Congratulations bellanonna, a well deserved rest now perhaps.

Congratulations Bellanonna ?
I am pleased to read that your husband has also received his vaccination.
I wish him a speedy recovery and hope that he will be able to join you at home very soon.

Enjoy you hugs?

Well done Bellanonna - keep well.
And hoping your husband starts to improve soon.

My daughters best friend had the first dose of the Covid vaccine yesterday, she is a nurse at our local NHS super hospital, they are aiming to vaccinate 2,000 staff per day, they have set up a central hub for the vaccination of all health service staff who need one.

She says that she feels Ok after it, and is now awaiting her second injection later next week.

Congratulations to all you ones who've had the injection. Its great to hear.

Thank you for all your nice comments. I gather 50 hospitals have this vaccine now. Hopefully even more will have it soon. It doesn’t appear to be in any Scottish hospitals which is very unfair. Marydoll you really need to have it. I will email you x

Bellanonna, I'm just so pleased you have had it. ?

Apparently there isn't enough for the health care workers in Scotland, let alone anyone else and they must be the priority group.
I will need to take medical advice anyway, before having it, so no rush. I'm not going anywhere, anytime soon!

Congratulations Bellanonna. Bet it feels amazing to be a step closer to safety. Hope your husband is able to be home with you soon.

Congratulations Bellanonna for being the first Gransnet member to receive the vaccine.
The future is looking brighter with this breakthrough and just to hug your GC will be a wonderful start to the New Year.
Wishing your DH a good recovery and discharge from hospital soon. ?

Congratulations Bellanonna how wonderful! I’m so very pleased for you
Enjoy your hugs with the DGC and I hope your DH is much better soon

Surely you cannot be taking your anti-vaccination views from a discredited book published nearly 100 years ago?
