Twelve months and over 32,000 confirmed cases later, the county is still battling to get infection rates down and support the national fight against Covid-19. Since the start of the pandemic, more than 1,200 people in Worcestershire have tragically lost their fight with Covid, causing heartbreak for the families they left behind.

Opening date confirmed for mass coronavirus vaccination centre

Dr Gemma Moore, GP and clinical director for SW Healthcare, said: “This vaccination centre will further increase our local capacity to deliver Covid-19 vaccines, building upon the success of our GP-led teams and those at the other centres in delivering this programme so quickly across the two counties. “These have been instrumental in helping us to introduce the vaccine in Herefordshire and Worcestershire so far, and we look forward to continuing to drive this programme forward. “We will be inviting patients based on the Joint Committee for Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) priority list, targeting the most vulnerable patients first. We’re asking patients not to attend the centre if they haven’t booked an appointment.”
