Hacked Off
It's been a busy few days for me and I am seriously hacked off for two reasons.
The first reason I won't dwell on in too much detail other than to say that Bontlins - the local equivalent of Bastardstones the bookshop - are yet again dispensing their legendary style of man management.
The second reason is illustrated in the image above.
Over the past 6-months or so I have been undergoing immunisation against Hepatitis B. People who work in places of heightened risk - hospitals, labs, prisons and similar - are routinely immunised against the disease. A couple of months after the final dose of vaccine a blood sample is taken to see if the Hepatitis B surface antibody is present, thereby confirming immunity.
A few days ago I went to my GP's practice to collect my results. To my astonishment the outside of the envelope was helpfully annotated with my name, address and "Hep B results". No doubt everyone who saw that envelope thinks I have been tested for the actual disease rather than the antibody. As the disease is associated with a whole bevy of unsociable practices, I dread to think the conclusions they've jumped to. Peeved as I am, I'll not be naming and shaming just yet because it's a fair bet that they'll hear about this article and take evasive action.
Anyway, that's quite enough for today.
