Posted on Tuesday 9th August 2022
People in Staffordshire are being urged to grab a jab at their nearest walk-in vaccine clinic this week.

Staffordshire County Council’s Cabinet Support Member for Public Health and Integrated Care, Paul Northcott, said:
“Vaccination is the best way to protect yourself and others against Covid-19. These walk-in clinics across Staffordshire offer a great opportunity for people to get their vaccine if they haven’t already, and make sure they are protected particularly before schools go back in September.
I would encourage everyone who is still not fully vaccinated to make use of these walk-in clinics over the summer holiday. The virus has not gone away and we must continue to do everything we can to keep levels low and stop the spread.”
