For anyone needing Hep A vaccine for any up and coming holidays, it seems there’s also a bit of a shortage of that too, so consider getting it sooner rather than later. DD got the last child dose at our GP practice and the nurse didn’t know when she would get more. She had had to turn away someone with two children the day before as she wouldn’t vaccinate one and not the other (how to choose?). She was running low on adult doses too.

That bloke on masterchef was working on developing a new TB vaccine. Good job he didn't win.

There's a program on this Wednesday at 9pm on BBC1 that you might find interesting.

Seems to be OK here in Gloucestershire, no problem getting this for DSx2 this week.

Vaccination tourism will make a change from 11+ tourism. :!:
