Offaly walk-in vaccine clinic for children over 12 planned next week

Additional walk-in Covid-19 vaccination clinics are to be held in the Tullamore Court Hotel on Thursday next, August 26.

The no-appointment jabs will be provided to people aged 16 and over in the morning, and to children aged from 12-15 in the afternoon.

Those aged 16 and above can attend between 9.15am and 12.30pm on Thursday.

Those who are in this age group can attend for either their first or second dose of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, but people attending for a second dose must ensure at least 21 days have passed since their first vaccination.

This will be followed by a walk-in clinic exclusively for people in the youngest vaccination age cohort, 12 to 15-year-olds, between 1.30pm and 4pm on Thursday.

Further details about attending walk-in vaccination clinics can be found on the HSE website here.
