I'm still waiting for my flu jab. Being under 65 I have to pay for it, which I do at my local Lloyds chemist every year for £16.
This year I have been told, virtually every week since the start of September, by my GP surgery, Lloyds and Boots that there is none available yet for under 65's and to try again next week.

Have the authorities forgotten that thousands die of Flu every year!
I'm 55 and have been getting messages online to advise me to book my flu jab. I assumed I'd hit the age to trigger it.
It seems not.

I can't recall ever having had flu. Maybe I did when a child but I can't recall it. If I've had it, it's manifested more like a cold with me.
My wife had it last when she was 21, 35 years ago nearly. It floored her for around two weeks.
