Dr Johnny McMahon, Staffordshire County Council’s Cabinet Support Member for Health and Integrated Care said: “Vaccination is the best way to protect yourselves and others from the serious effects of Covid 19.
“These walk-in clinics are a great opportunity for everyone, especially for younger people to grab a jab and we would encourage everyone to get their first dose as soon as possible.
“We’ve seen case numbers rise in Staffordshire over the past couple of weeks, so getting as many people vaccinated as we can, coupled with regular testing and taking precautions where necessary, we can help stop Covid-19 hanging around this winter.”
