More Harrogate district covid booster clinics in coming weeks
People in the Harrogate district are urged to book their covid booster vaccines as more clinics are set to open.
Currently, appointments are being offered at the Yorkshire Events Centre and Chain Lane vaccination centre in Knaresborough as well as some local surgeries.
The autumn booster campaign began across most of the UK last week, with care home residents being vaccinated first.
Those aged 65 and over are now being invited to have their booster vaccine.
In Harrogate, some appointments will be available at the Great Yorkshire Showground’s Event Centre, although booking is advised via the NHS website or by calling 119.
A clinic was held from Monday to Thursday this week and another will take place in three weeks' time.

Appointments at the site must be booked through the NHS. Patients are urged not to call surgeries to book their vaccines.
