While coronavirus cases may (finally) be decreasing, with the lifting of restrictions and a return to 'Plan A' Covid strategy, it's still a good idea to ensure you're protected against the virus.
The UK Health Security Agency revealed this morning that COVID boosters increase protection against death from the Omicron variant to 95 per cent in people aged 50 or over.
The following venues in Welwyn Hatfield are offering walk-in COVID-19 vaccinations this weekend. People aged 16+ are eligible for a booster jab.
Please note: Adults aged 18+ must wait four weeks after a positive PCR test before they are eligible to get any vaccine. People under 18 must wait 12 weeks.
