Not qualified (I'm not even 50 yet) and anyway I'm waiting to see how it goes. Not sure I'm going to get a vaccine even once it's available to those not in risk groups. I don't have any chronic illnesses (besides a bit of a blood pressure which is nicely under control with medication), I work from home, I don't travel and I don't socialize. So no particular reason to get vaccinated for me personally. I've never even done a flu vaccine, and flu is common here. (BTW, I'm not anti-vaccination in general; it's just that my personal lifestyle renders most vaccinations pretty pointless.)

My mother who is 83 and living in a nursing home has gotten the first shot and is scheduled for the second in February.

I'm really stupid.
