Walk-in vaccine clinics are popping up all over Cornwall in the coming days in order to get Covid jabs to people who have so far been unable to access one. In an extra effort to ensure everyone over the age of 18 gets vaccinated, one pharmacist will even be visiting pubs, bars and shops this weekend. Chris Naidu from Reeds Pharmacy in Truro wants to encourage workers - and their customers - to protect themselves against Covid-19 by popping along to his walk-in vaccination clinic. The pharmacy at The Globe, Frances Street, is running a clinic from 9am to 4pm, both today (Saturday) and tomorrow (Sunday) with no appointment needed.
Community pharmacies join COVID-19 vaccination roll-out Life-saving coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccinations will begin to be delivered from a city centre pharmacy, and a former church in the Clay Country from today(Thursday 28 January). Reeds Pharmacy in Truro, and Roche Pharmacy in Roche are among hundreds of community pharmacies to offer vaccinations to protect against the deadly virus. The two community pharmacies join the expanding roll-out of the programme – the biggest vaccination programme in NHS history. They join the large scale vaccination centre at Stithians Showground, near Truro, and the 13 GP-led primary care network sites across Cornwall already delivering the vaccine. Two hundred pharmacies across the country are expected to offer the vaccine by the end of the month.
