People told to travel 100 miles to register overseas jab
Some people who were vaccinated abroad have been asked to travel more than 100 miles to register their vaccination so they can book a booster dose.

There are currently only 16 sites to register an overseas vaccination in England.
Without registering, overseas vaccines are not recorded on the national system so people cannot book boosters or prove their status using the NHS Covid Pass.
The Department of Health said more sites would be added in due course.
It said people could still access a booster at a walk-in centre without needing their record to be updated in advance.
On Friday, the Department for Health and Social Care announced that UK residents vaccinated abroad or in Northern Ireland with an approved jab would now be able to register their vaccination with the National Immunisation Management System - allowing them to prove their vaccination status with the NHS Covid Pass or book a booster dose if they were fully vaccinated.
Previously, people's vaccination status would only appear on the national system if they had the jab in England, Scotland or Wales.
However, to register an overseas vaccination, people must book an appointment at a selected list of vaccination centres in England.
On Monday, many users told the BBC they were only offered a handful of sites to register an overseas vaccination - with none further north than Peterborough.
More sites now appear to have been added, including one in Leeds. However, a search for sites near Birmingham still showed Leeds as the closest option - more than 100 miles away.
Others said they were unable to reach the page to book an appointment - or when they did there were no slots available.
