I went for my Covid jab on Sunday, that was fine but the very strange responses from the reception staff and the jabber made me laugh. They both asked why I was there as am not 65, I explained T2 and one woman smiled and responded 'Fab' and the jabber also smiled and responded 'marvellous'. Hmm. It made me laugh, never heard T2 referred like that before. Marvellous.

Strange they would only think of jabbing people over 65 and unaware of vaccines for "the vulnerable" (a term I hate but will accept for the jabs).
My surgery had two waiting rooms clearly marked as "over 65" (they were queuing) and "under 65" (we were sitting down).

Mine didn't, but didn't seem bothered that I was there. Maybe I just look old and/or obviously sick. Or (just as likely) they trust that if my name's on the list I ought to be there. (The person doing the injections obviously noticed the Libre sensor, too, which is a bit of a giveaway.)
