We don’t mean to nag but… get jabbed!

Cork’s vaccination efforts continue apace this weekend with walk-in jabs (first and second) available at three different centres.

Anyone over the age of 16 can get a vaccine, as can children between the ages of 12 and 15 as long as they’re accompanied by a parent or guardian.

As always, the HSE requires that anyone seeking a second dose of the Pfizer vaccine has waited at least 21 days since they received their first shot. Those received an AstraZeneca shot for their first dose are also eligible to receive a Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine as their second dose.

The time-slots for this weekend’s walk-in services are as follows.

Bantry Primary Care Centre
