Knaresborough vaccine site reassures patients after jabs cancelled
Knaresborough's vaccine centre has reassured patients it is still offering covid jabs after a technical glitch sent messages cancelling appointments.
Jason Baskind, managing director of Homecare Pharmacy Services, said those who received texts cancelling jabs would still be vaccinated and there was no need to panic.
An NHS technical glitch caused some appointments to be cancelled yesterday. Mr Baskind said NHS England was investigating the issue and hoped to resolve it soon.
He added all appointments would be honoured.
The messages led some residents to question on social media whether the vaccine centre was closing. But Mr Baskind confirmed this wasn't the case:
He urged anyone who had their appointment cancelled to email support@hcpharmacy.co.uk with their name, NHS number and date and time off the vaccine.
