[QUOTE="Colin Crowhurst, post: 2244072, member: 497411"] As i just posted elsewhere also.... I saw that diabetes was included at first (we get a free flu jab...) but later disappeared from some lists. We have an excellent BBC local radio station here in Norfolk and on the phone-in medical section this week , I asked the following:- "Can the GP confirm if diabetes is on the list of "vulnerable conditions" also does Type 1 or type 2 make a difference and would how well you are controlled matter?" The response I feel was VERY clear (for a change!) and to summarize:- 1. No reply about differences in type.... 2. If your HbA1C is over 75 then you WILL be on the vulnerable list. My only other comment would be this does obviously NOT preclude listing due to other illnesses/conditions! Hope this helped others, definitely cleared things up for me! [/QUOTE]
