Health centre's vaccination update for younger people

Llangollen Health Centre has this morning put out an update on its Covid-19 vaccination programme, which says:

"We have now given over 6,200 vaccines to our patients.
"We are continuing to administer second doses on a weekly basis.

"Second doses are due 10-12 weeks after the first dose and we are contacting patients 1-2 weeks before their appointment is due. If you are concerned that we have missed you please give us a call on 01978 860625.
"Patients 30 – 49 years: We are trialling a collaborative approach with other local practices for this age group.

"The first group of patients are currently being contacted inviting them for their vaccination at Plas Madoc Leisure Centre this Thursday. We shall be doing this in descending order of age.
"Patients aged 18-29 years: Following recent guidance, this age group will now receive the Pfizer vaccine.

"We anticipate that this will also be at Plas Madoc Leisure Centre although we were able to give a small number of patients in this age group their first dose at the weekend.
"Due to variations in the supply chain for the two vaccines, it may well be that patients aged 18-29 get their vaccine before those aged 30-49."
