I'm like WTF why am I being asked this today and not in the last month where I could have arranged that.
I've just been through needing a cardiologist consent to get my passenger accreditation so I know our public system can't cater to me for 6 months and a private consult takes a month @ $500 as it requires an ECG too.
So they say I need to give consent myself and take the risk or wait and risk getting covid.
What an absolute cluster ****.

Further to this, just spoke to SA Heart about this, they say I'm the first they've heard this from and suggested there will be a lot of angry people if they're asking this type of question during the jab consult as its clogging up the system for others.
3 weeks ago they added these questions to the list they ask as people are dying from Pfizer too but unless I've missed something it isn't being reported.
I'm not usually one to buy into conspiracy theories but right now I'm questioning wether people with co morbidities are not going to make it through the eventual spread after we open up jabbed or not.
