I certainly will make a point of asking which second jab I am having when i go back in only 6 days time. By the way i didn't know there were two separate vaccination locations at the hospital.. Literally next door to each other - Labelled A and B. However, this may have been done after your first v...

If you have filled out a form galexinda and have your ID with you, you will have complied with the law and be fine. No policeman has the time or interest to investigate which shops you have been to and which shops you intend going to. Thank you but I will not be following your advice - especially a...

I am struggling to understand the reason for using the SMS system/Form B during this 'lockdown' for the general public. There is so much flexibility with regards to the time one can spend out of the home and the distances permitted to travel and the facility to just extend one permission by submitti...

I hope that when different people go for their second jab is is the same brand as the first one .. Trev - when you booked your appointment only the Pfizer vaccine was available at Paphos General. I noticed a day or so later that both Pfizer and AstraZeneca were available according to the GESY Benef...

Our correspondence is sent to a PO Box and there was the choice for the MEU3 forms to be sent there so we kept checking there. However, our post person likes to let people know there is post for them by leaving the post half out the letterbox or if they do not have a letterbox on the wall by the ent...

What is there for Police to check, other than if people carry their ID and have sent an sms (or have Form B with them)? Otherwise pretty meaningless. Wife and I were out all yesterday morning, starting with my vaccine jab. Then onto Alfa Mega. Then to the Russian fruit market. Then collect hardware...

Certainly my insurance company have a photo copy of my car log book, and my driving licence In addition, if 70+ years of age worth checking the insurance company as an up to date copy of your driving licence as they tend not to check when it is insurance premium renewal time as they are focusing on...

The UKCA is different from other ‘ businesses’ in that it has a membership. Some of the members are quite wealthy although by no means all. Many years ago , back in UK I was a member of an organisation which ran into a financial problem and the members helped out, with gifts of money, interest free...

UKCA was great when we moved here - but that was some years ago and the people of today have a different lifestyle. Not saying there isn't a need for the club but, as people have mentioned in previous comments, many businesses have been affected in the past twelve months or so and are struggling.

Thanks for the information - good to know you only need MEU document for the first appointment. Not necessary to follow the advice of Tala Blogspot 'Please ensure you have with you your GESY paperwork confirming your membership of the scheme, PLUS your MEU1 or MEU3 as photo ID. If you have ‘belt and...

Our insurance company has a copy of our vehicle's log book - perhaps worth contacting yours?

When making an appointment for the vaccination by the GESY PORTAL either the ID number as written on your MEU form or the number written on the GESY document can be used. With regards making a phone appointment (1474) each time the operator asked for the MEU ID number as well as Name and DOB. Likewi...

The authorities were looking at Palia Ilektriki which is near Kennedy Square a few days ago as a potential site for vaccinations - often referred to as the old electricity power plant. I believe this is the place. Link to location map: https://www.google.com/maps/place/Palia+Ilektriki+Restaurant-Caf...

The UK Citizens’ Association club has been an integral part of the lives of many British residents in Cyprus for the last 21 years and like its elderly member Ivy has been especially badly hit by the lockdown measures. Unless it’s allowed to reopen its doors in the next couple of weeks, it will stru...

Perhaps best to phone regarding the report: Tel 26 943300. Open 8am-7pm Monday.
'GV RADIOLOGY CENTER would like to announce that from the 4th of February 2020, our center will be part of the GESY system'.

The other day I nearly ended up in the chest freezer because the item I needed was right at the back and I had to stand on the step to reach for it.

Our GP says she will contact us both come our turn, we also have a small credit card size Gesy registration.. That is exactly my question. What if you don´t have a GP? I´ve never needed one so far in Cyprus. GPs or Personal Doctors are part of GESY. It is possible to see a GP privately but that wou...

We are taking drinks with us when we go out - hot drinks just don't taste the same out of a cardboard container.
So looking forward to sitting at a table and enjoying a coffee.... or even better a meal.
