I see that COVID cases are increasing again.

Does anyone know if COVID Booster injections are currently available? - and if they are, where?

just from this week onwards the new BionTech XBB.1.5 vaccine is available.. in Germany.
so, it will, most probably, take weeks/month until this stuff will be available in NC... and "who" will buy it and deliver (for free??) to NC?

Interesting - but you need a ROC telephone number to register on the website (& to receive an OTP by text) - it doesn't like TRNC or UK numbers.

I have had vaccinations in the South before (not COVID), simply by turning up at a ROC Health Centre and asking! - but for this it will be done by appointment (for simultaneous Flu and Covid vaccinations) or by visiting the ROC GP with whom you are registered - neither of which is available if you don't have a ROC GP or a ROC 'phone number ...

sorry, it was a quick search and i did not read in full...
a pity, as to offer both up to date (better: newest) vacs same time is very clever.
i guess the vacs are limited in numbers... so they have to be careful to reach the vulnerable only.

btw, what are the TCs with RoC passport doing?

Getting a TOM for a year - grrrrr. Only joking, I will ask my TC buddy next time I see him but I think they will be the same as us none TC's and will just wait for the table sweepings from the EU to arrive.
No matter how hard the past, you can always begin again.

I suppose if they'll sell you a ROC SIM, it would take you one more step along the way - and presumably they DO sell SIMs to foreign holiday makers...
