That part of the system seems to have worked pretty well so far (despite flecc's comments) and my second wasn't due yet anyway according to their (disputed) rules, so I'll wait and see what happens, at least for now.
That's only for booking both injections and there are numerous other restrictions, all listed on that link.
I inputted my NHS number and up came a list of dates and locations.
It's just a guess, they may have your vaccine records against your NHS number.

I did the same experimentally, but rules are rules, the conditions say I should not use the service and most people are barred. I didn't go ahead since it was possible, even likely, that I would mess up their system of scheduling my second dose so that would be irresponsible.

And you can only find something if its lost or hidden...
How do you hide 29,000, 000 vaccines?
Or
How do you lose 29,000,000 vaccines?
Then the obvious... Why??
What's going on..

By my quick estimate thats 290 tons of product... Even if bulk stored.. Ready in vials would be more...???
12 artic lorry loads hidden or lost?

It's obviously there now they've announced it publically. So far, pending any other story, the only viable account is that it is for secret despatch to Britain in defiance of the EU.

Who would do that is anybody's guess.

Not to mention the fact that you need such a big fridge Boris could not merely hide, but hold cabinet meetings in it! :D

Don't you mean EVERYBODYS guess
How about the......Usual Suspects?

How fortunate we are to have an impeccable internationally accepted reputation for sticking to the letter of any agreement :D
Shades of Peter Cooke and Dudley moor in the Great Race as the Indian Army officers

Dud: "We're lost Sir!"
Pete: "Don't be ridiculous, an Englishman is never lost
Mislaid perhaps, but never lost"

Same goes for dishonesty with this regime

UKHSA ... permanent standing capacity to plan, prevent and respond to external threats to health...

I really, really hope they are not actually planning external threats to health. We have enough threats already.

Or is it trying for easy goals? Plan a threat, then prevent it because you already know all about it?

I think not.. it is 15,000 litres ..a dose is 0.5ml so 30M doses give the 15,Kl So it matters whether it was in the primordial soup stage, ,in which case it might be only a couple of hundred litres at most, or in the dispensing concentration stage, or in the packaged stage of 5 ml bottles

The setbacks due to Brexit are rapidly moving from a disaster a week towards a disaster a day.

I was always certain that Brexit was a terrible and permanent mistake, but even I didn't anticipate quite the breadth and depth of its ill effects so soon.

I can now well envisage a repeat of the 1970s in the not too distant future, national bankruptcy, the IMF coming in to run our economy and rejoining the EU to return us to health, as we did back then half a century ago.
