‘Now it’s your turn to do your bit to protect yourself and others by booking in or attending a walk-in or booking an appointment to get your jab. Please don’t put this off - the sooner you get a booster, the sooner you’ll increase your protection against the virus.’
Clinical director of the Solent vaccination programme, Angela Anderson, added: ‘Getting your booster is vital in helping to protect yourself and your loved ones from Covid-19. We also welcome those people who would like their first of second dose.
‘We have capacity across our centres, with walk-ins on New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day.
