Another Jab

[ffutures]

Had my second Covid jab today. Feeling fine so far, we'll see how it goes. Hoping I'll be well enough to get out and vote in the local government elections tomorrow, if I'd noticed the coincidence of dates I would have got a postal ballot to be on the safe side, but it's a bit late now. When I had the first dose I felt a bit queasy on day two but otherwise fine, hopefully this will be similar.

Got home to find a letter saying I've been randomly chosen to take part in an NHS periodic study - if I agree to participate they'll send me a Covid test kit, by testing several thousand people at intervals they'll get an idea of how it's spreading (if it still is). The down side of course is having to self-isolate if the test shows I have the virus, even if there are no symptoms. I think I'll join in, I think I'm better off knowing.

The poll clerk just reminded me, in case of medical emergency you can get a proxy up till 5 this afternoon, so if you can't make it, that might be an option.

I'm OK - heading out to vote in a few minutes.
