Vaccinations

Hi all, as COVID becomes endemic and lots more prevalent in our lives, I personally feel very fortunate that everyone at my house is already eligible to get vaccinated.

My eldest child will join Clive and me and be fully vaxxed ✅ this week and I am very pleased this has happened before she has to return to school for the GAT (General Achievement Test) on 5 October.

The younger two have to wait 6 weeks at the minute between shots, so although they’ve had their first they won’t be fully vaccinated until the end of October … I am hoping that with Pfizer supplies for October confirmed and Moderna now available, the 6 week gap will drop back to 3 weeks so they can have full protection before they head back to school mid October.

We haven’t heard any official word, but I am expecting that our neighbourhood houses 🏘 will be part of the ‘vaccinated economy’. Expert guidance in whatever form it takes will be very welcome. We have so many vulnerable people here every day (whether older, or with a disability, or younger and ineligible) that I find the responsibility of decision-making about how to keep everyone as safe as possible now that we are at the poky stage where COVID is here, quite nerve-wracking all round.

All our staff have already had the jab. Kalimna and I had ours back in June I think it was … it feels like a lifetime ago now.

Anyway, it will be lovely to see you all again when we can get back on site regularly, and we’ll keep you up to date with any advice we get about the details and requirements for opening up.

Here’s me getting my second jab.
