Spring covid booster jab drop-in at Lagoon in Paisley

Anyone eligible for a spring booster can head along to the Lagoon leisure centre on Sunday.

NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde is holding a drop-in session from 10am till 7pm for anyone eligible who hasn’t had their jab yet.

The spring booster has been offered to people aged 75 or over and those aged over 12 who are immunosuppressed, with clinics operating since early March until 30 June.

Anyone in these groups who has not yet come forward can book online or call the national vaccination helpline seven days a week to make an appointment which suits them.

Dr Emilia Crighton, Deputy Director for Public Health at NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde, said: “Covid-19 continues to circulate and it remains crucial that those most at risk of severe effects from the virus protect themselves by getting their spring booster vaccination.

“Immunity from the vaccine wanes over time and the booster provides important additional protection.

“I’d urge anyone aged 75 or over, or anyone aged 12 or over who is severely immunosuppressed to come forward for their spring booster before the end of June if they haven’t already done so.

“If you have missed yours for any reason then you can rearrange it online at NHS Inform or by calling the helpline on 0800 030 8013 seven days a week between 8am and 8pm. Alternatively, you can visit one of our drop-in clinics currently operating. The details of which can be found on our website.”

The national vaccination helpline number is 0800 030 8013.

More information on the spring booster and how to book online is available at NHS Inform. Information about drop-in clinics available in NHSGGC is available at https://www.nhsggc.scot/your-health/covid-19/covid-vaccinations/
