Morning Live

Hi Brian Thanks for update , I did some preliminary interviews with the BBC before Christmas. I’ve just found it on IPlayer it’s 43 minutes  in if anyone wants to watch it. It’s about promoting the boys to get the vaccine as numbers are dropping year in year. So anyine with grandchildren boys or girls they get the vaccine in year 8 at high school. Theres some exceptions that if they’ve missed it previously the can get it if under 26 on the nhs or if over van pay privately.

Hi At the moment it’s boys born after 1 September 2006 there’s talks in progress re the levelling up with girls but at moment gp s are restricted to the guideline's. I know nhs vaccine directives are looking into the ages but no thing  so far as been confirmed. 

I do know some parents have paid for the vaccines if their boys don’t qualify.You can always ask your GP 

Sorry can’t be more helpful.

You can buy the vaccine at Boots the Chemist 

The NHS advice is 

The number of doses you need depends on your age and how well your immune system works:

• people under 25 usually only need 1 dose
• people aged 25 to 45 usually need 2 doses (given between 6 months and 2 years apart)

There is a clip here.

Having watched it I can see why they picked two men with HNC. You'd have been great, though

Thank you Brian. It’s very important 

There is vaccine hesitancy after Covid.
