Walk-in Vaccination Clinics will be held in Cavan and Monaghan again this weekend.
Last week almost 1,400 people got their Covid-19 vaccines at the local walk-in clinics and that success has led the HSE to run them for a second week.
899 people received their first dose at the Hotel Kilmore in Cavan last weekend while 490 people got their first dose over the same period at the Glencarn Hotel in Castleblayney.
Following on from the success of last weekend's Walk-in Vaccination Clinics the HSE has announced it will run them again this weekend.
Anyone over the age of 16 can get a first dose Pfizer vaccination without an appointment from Friday, to Sunday in Monaghan and Friday and Saturday in Cavan and you do not need to be from the areas to avail of the vaccine.
In the Monaghan Vaccination Centre at the Glencarn people can attend on Friday from 3pm to 7.30pm and on Saturday and Sunday between 1.30pm to 4.30pm.
Meanwhile vaccinations will be administered at the Cavan Vaccination Centre at the Hotel Kilmore, on Friday from 4.30pm to 8.30pm and Saturday from 8.30am to 12.30am
After receiving your first dose your second will be arranged at a vaccination centre near your home address, but you can change the location if you wish.
Paula Loughran, Operational Site Manager for Monaghan CVC is encouraging anyone who was unable to attend last weekend to avail of their first vaccination this weekend.
When attending you should bring :
- PPS number. If you don’t have a PPSN, you can still be registered and vaccinated. You’ll need to bring proof of address.
