Round here we got summoned for our flu jabs by text, no idea what happens with people who haven't got a mobile phone. Like my mum.
My mother has to wait in the surgery for 15 minutes after the jab - I suppose this is to make sure there aren't any immediate adverse reactions such as anaphylaxis. I imagine that this will slow things down. Apparently we have inoculated 138,000 people in the first week. According to my [appalling] maths, at this rate it will take nine years to do everyone.
A few weeks back I got summoned by text to have a flu jab, so now I'm officially elderly. Made an appointment for five days later and a day before, got a text saying my surgery had run out of jabs. I don't understand why they can't make appointments according to the number of shots they have - no sign of a repeat invitation either.
