Swiftqueue seem to have sprung up from nowhere to be a major player in
the Covid vaccine roll-out without and public information campaign
from the Government and/or NHS.

I've come across a few people who treated the invitations from
Swiftqueue with suspicion and one who rigidly awaited the "official"
invitation from the NHS, despite it meaning they had to travel to get
jabbed. It seems to have been left to the local NHS and authorities
to confirm there is an association.

Even the BBC (ok, no longer a good definitive source) make no mention
on their When will I get the vaccine" article at :

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-55045639

Today I've tried to find out more about Swiftqueue and there's not a
lot - not even a Wiki, just a bit on their own site.

Surely with the desire to encourage take-up then people should be
rushing to Swiftqueue and not be being suspicious of it and ignoring
it.

Have I missed something?

They get a mention on your local CCG website ...

A lot of pharmacy chains have leapt in a similar fashion and the publicity
has simply not caught up, this is worrying as if these commercial companies
do have access to your records, what else might they use them for later on?
