Big Covid-19 vaccination weekend to be held in Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland this weekend
Health leaders in Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland (LLR) are encouraging all adults (18+) in LLR that are yet to have either their first or second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine to get vaccinated this weekend.
As part of a national initiative the NHS in Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland (LLR) have organised a series of Covid-19 vaccination clinics across the city and counties starting on Friday 25 June and running daily until Sunday 27 June 2021.
In a continued effort to stop the spread of the virus, the big vaccination weekend has been set up to make getting vaccinated as convenient and as easy as possible for all eligible people across LLR - simply walk-in to a clinic close to your home, when convenient for you.
Clinics will be administering either the Pfizer or AstraZeneca vaccine and will be offering both first and second doses. As cases continue to rise across LLR it is essential that people come forward not only for their first dose but also to take up their second dose to provide them with the maximum protection possible against Covid-19 and its variants.
