WA Nov 2021 9:29am, 1 Nov 2021 9,199 posts	0 WA I've put this on the covid discussion thread as well, but posting here too as it may be useful I wasn't sure if SweetPea could have a second covid jab as she's 17, 18 in Feb. I spoke to 119 this morning and received this advice- once a young person reaches 18 (or within 3 months of their 18th birthday), they can book in for a second jab as long as it's at least 8 weeks since their first dose

Daughter has remained negative on PCR and multiple LFTs. I think that second jab might have given her the edge
