The obfuscation in relation to the covid jabs has pretty much peaked with the latest I have heard. Someone I know, who is a resident but never quite got around to completing the registration for the medical system, decided to go down and fill in the form that I recently heard they were touting for the over-80s - that being for elderly people who had private medical insurance, but had all the other qualifications.
Anyway, he and his wife went down and did all the paperwork after waiting in a queue for an hour, then he was told to come back that evening to get his first jab!
Surprising in that he is only in his early 60s,
Surprising in that he had covid a few weeks ago and was told he already had the antibodies, and Surprising that they just ignored his wife who is in her mid-to-late 60s.
Actually doubly Surprising on that one, as they have now apparently extended the AZ jab to anyone up to 69 (that was previously only essential workers up to that age) and that was what he was given, but not her.
Oh, and another change in that he has been given the date for the second dose in 11 weeks time - so they have changed the gap period from the previously specified 3 weeks.
I think you can safely say that they have achieved their objective now, as it it is pretty much impossible to predict who might get called, when it might be and what they can expect to get.
I guess their next trick will be to start mixing the vaccines.
