Councillor Paul Holbrook, the town’s Mayor has today received his AstraZeneca vaccine as part of the roll-out for the over 70s.
He was hosted at the new Abbots Wood Manor Care Home in London Road which is being used as as temporary vaccine centre for patients of the Quintin Medical Centre.
Councillor Holbrook commented: ““The timing for when individuals in the priority groups will be able to receive their vaccination depends significantly on the availability of the vaccine at the time – and the particular priority group they are in of course.”
He added: “Please remember that this is the biggest vaccination programme in history and as I say, everyone will be contacted and offered the vaccine when it’s their time. Please be patient, your turn will come.”
