[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 2152376, member: 345386"] Rachox, as part of my involvement with our PPG, I was in attendance at the over-65s, plus those with specific medical conditions, flu clinic. Around 1000 doses were delivered. It was incredibly slick, although one person (allegedly a nurse!) complained her appointment was 08:34, but she was only seen at 08:36 - eh?). Anyway, anyway, during on of the Doc's breaks (they just had 5 minutes every couple of hours for a coffee and comfort) he mentioned that whilst flu jabs are advertised as "free" in various pharmacies, the individual's surgery is then charged a fee. I didn't ask exactly how much that was, but his inference was it was a meaningful amount, versus the various clinics, or even a nurse appointment. Personally, I choose not to have the vaccination, but that is my choice and my risk. [/QUOTE]
