I heard on the news this morning that the first chicken pox vaccines were being made
available in the UK. Its mainly aimed at pregnant mothers.
Now, this is varicella if I'm thinking correct. Does this mean that those who haven't
got as far as their interview yet are going to have to find a source for this? I can
imagine its going to be fairly elusive for a while. Or will it not matter untill the
US embassy in London decree its now necessary for UK citizens?
Thanks

I should imagine they would let "future interviewees" know if there are any changes in the vaccination requirements, probably when they send the Packet 4.
Either way, no doubt the vaccine will be available at Dr Phelan's
(The Embassy's doctor - where the medicals are held)

I would think it's not going to matter for now, as far as the consulate is concerned.
I wouldn't worry about it. Ranjini

mmm, ugg getting stabbed again - I'm not too fond of needles.
Trying to save myself some cash, My mums a practise nurse and so has been putting me
in as an emergency patient at her surgery and sorting my vaccinations out. If I use
the ones that are about to go out of date the surgery lets me have em free, cause
they'll only have to chuck them![Smile](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif)
