Message: <blockquote data-quote="gennepher" data-source="post: 2318362" data-attributes="member: 238814">Just come back from having the flu jab, after being unexpectedly offered one this weekend (not at my doctors surgery, but at another location). I was ushered along a corridor and told to wait. Then told to go to this room. A nurse came to me. It was by an open door to outside, which had a high chain link fencing on the other side of the path. I was jabbed. Given a clear face mask, and told to wear that instead of my mask which she told me was not good for my asthma. She said mine was too close to my face and nose for breathing...I have never seen this nurse before, she does not know me. There were a few names highlighted in yellow on her list, and my name was highlighted in yellow. None of this malarkey about having to sit down and wait after the flu jab for 15 minutes or so in case you have anaphylactic shock. I was chucked out of the door into the fresh air, but not before being told I had to self isolate for two weeks because of the flu jab, and because it doesn't take for 14 days. And I could become very ill and catch the flu in that 14 days. And because of Wales and Covid. I had no prior warning I was to self isolate because of the flu jab. I didn't have any fresh food shopping in. I had been going to do it after the jab. I was out anyway, so got fresh food in. Glared evilly at anyone who tried to invade my 2metre space. And came home.Has anyone else who had the fu jab been told to self isolate for 14 days?</blockquote>
