Re: S1 Form holder in Cyprus - EHIC still valid.
A lot of us Brits refer to the white medical card as the E121 , but if you flip the card over you will see it is the YY [IY] 91 .

Medical records
When Gesy started did they say our medical records kept in folders would be transferred to the computer system ?
Has it happened for anyone ?
Certainly not mine ?

Re: Vaccination portal
Good point Dee , I know a lot of people have found it hard to set up a user account .
