You and Yours

Available for over a year

How easy is it to get a vaccine or booster jab where you live? People have been waiting in long queues for hours at Covid vaccination centres in the hope of getting their vaccination or booster. For a time, the NHS website crashed as people scrambled to book their booster jab ahead of Christmas. There has also been a shortage of of lateral flow tests that you can order online. How easy have you found it, to get a vaccine or a booster jab where you live? We are keen to hear your experience. News about the fast-spreading Omnicron variant of the virus and the government decision to speed up the roll-out of booster injections has caused a big increase in demand. The NHS is now appealing for volunteers to help at vaccination centres. Tell us your experience. Email [email protected] and leave a phone number so we can contact you. From 11:00am on Tuesday 14th December, you can call us direct on 03700 100 444. Producer: Jonathan Hallewell Presenter: Winifred Robinson
