PEOPLE can still need to get their covid booster jabs in Worcester over the Christmas and New Year break.
A number of walk-in appointments will be available across the county for those looking to get their first, second or booster vaccinations.
Waiting times have been short at the appointments though there may be a flurry of busier clinics as people take the opportunity to get boosted while on annual leave.
The last walk-in will be available one hour before each of the sites closes.
This list was correct at the time of publication but for more information visit www.swhealthcare.org.uk/christmas-opening-times.

People are asked to check the website for availability and not to travel for a walk-in appointment if they are at full capacity.
If there is limited capacity, the clinics will be able to accept some patients but people may experience long queues and it is possible the supply may run out.
