A Covid-19 vaccination centre location has been confirmed for Nottingham.
Until now, it was understood vaccinations in the city were only being given out at the Queen's Medical Centre and City Hospital.
But with the introduction of new vaccination hubs in communities across the county, another site has been identified for Nottingham.
Cripps Health Centre in University Park near Lenton has been confirmed as the fourth community site along with three Nottinghamshire hospitals.
Dr Andy Haynes, Executive Lead, Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Integrated Care System gave an update on the sites and the vaccination programme in a public health briefing on Friday.
He said: "We now have seven vaccination sites open - one at Queens, one at City, one at Sherwood so hospital hubs have been vaccinating now for a number of weeks.
"There are four community vaccination sites that have opened this week - you'll have seen the releases around Ashfield, Gamston, Richard Herrod and Cripps is live.
"We also have our roving service which is now vaccinating in care homes."
He added: "There's a site opening in Newark next week for community vaccination."
The sites allow the programme to stay on track to deliver the vaccine under Government requirements.
Dr Haynes said health organisations took the decision to get the sites up and running before looking to bring in GP surgeries due to their small size and potential risk of outbreaks at early stages of the roll-out.
He added: "But we will expect there will be more GP surgeries coming online in the coming days and weeks so the programme will be expanding."
Speaking about what people need to do in relation to getting a vaccine, he said: "It's really critical that people approach the services they are targeted to when they get the letter asking them to come.
"The letters are being sent out to 80-plus year olds - if you ring the line without having had a letter, it risks us not being able to target the right populations in a co-ordinated way across the capacity that we have."
Dr Haynes said the health system was looking an offering transport support for people to get their vaccine as well as working with communities that are harder to target or have expressed vaccine hesitancy.
