He's 20 months old, we'd been putting it off - hoping to avoid it altogether to be honest, but he needs to be fully vaccinated to go to nursery. The cost of the individual vaccines is at present, £120 each. So that's £360 for the first round, then another £360 for the second lot!!
I know you can't put a price on your childs health, but unfortunately needs must sometimes. I mean, I had the combined one, and I'm alright...
Did you know that only 11% of people pay for their subscription medication. That 11% pay for the other 89%!!!
The wife is a medical rep, and she was telling me all about it a little while back. I'll double check the figures, but it's at most 15% (I'm actually VERY sure it's 11%, but will check). The government doesn't count people on disabilities, job seekers, and the alike, when it comes to working out how many people pay for their medicine. Oddly, doctors do!!! A SouthWest doctor meeting conference thing, said the national statistics show only 11% pay for their prescriptions!!!
