	A handful of my coffee pals here in the UK have had both jabs but they got their first ones early in December as they're over 80. It will be eleven or twelve weeks between my first and second jab - according to my doc who administered the first one over two weeks ago. It doesn't concern me as I expect my body to begin to build up its own stronger resistance before my second jab and, anyway, they may have tweaked the vaccine to be more effective against a variety of strains by the time that date comes round.

Member Since: May 2006 Posts: 7,006 Send Message	Where is here? Most of us Brits are having to wait about 12 weeks for the second jab.

	Good news Mr M I had my second dose of Pfizer this morning 3 weeks after the first, I guess it's one of the benefits of living here. How long do people have to wait for the second jabs? Ann

	Hubby and I had the Pfizer on 30th Jan. We both had a very heavy arm that day and the next but no other side effects. Our own GP did it a bigger Health Centre as our surgery is very small. Kath. x

	I had Pfizer but OH had AstraZeneca. I had a sore arm but OH had a reaction on day 2 but took paracetamol and felt fine next day.

Member Since: May 2006 Posts: 7,006 Send Message	I had the Oxford AZ this afternoon. OH had the same a week ago. Daughter is getting hers next week and I expect it will be the same.. All being done by the surgery. Edit: just read an update and it looks as though daughter will get the prizes one.
