Not Flu jab related, but we seem to have wandered. Had a couple of days in Gibraltar this week. My wife got bitten by a macaque. Quick application of Germolene, and a later visit to a pharmacy. The pharmacist recommended visiting the hospital. (The skin had been punctured) Went to hospital, found reception, answered questions, filled in paperwork. Saw a doctor/nurse, tested for residual tetanus resistance. Wound cleaned and dressed (one steri-strip) tetanus injection, prescription for antibiotics. Out of the hospital within 45 minutes of arrival. Only cost was £5- to pick up the prescription at the next pharmacist we passed. The speed was probably down to a lack of 'middle management'.
