My wife (who manages her asthma with steroidal inhaler - the pink one and the brown one, fnarrrr etc) was told by our GP that she isn't considered high risk so isn't any higher in the vaccine queue than her age would suggest. GP said that "severe" asthma doesn't automatically put you in a higher risk bracket, but they do look at patients who have not been able to manage their asthma - so number of trips to the doctor/hospital. We will both sit tight and wait for our jabs, as and when we can have them
This is basically me. It hasn't been a problem for years, I've had no attacks, no signs of it for years, but my doctors still insist on reviewing it and giving me the flu jab every year because I'm considered higher risk.
Pretty sure this means I will get the vaccine earlier, but they're the doctors and I gave up arguing about it years ago.
