Covid Vaccine update & Shielding Patients

30/12/2020

 
Many of you will have seen by now that a 2nd vaccine (the Oxford/Astra-Zeneca vaccine) has been approved for use against Covid-19.  It seems likely that GP surgeries will possibly be involved in the administration of this jab, but we are still awaiting formal directions for how this might work, when it might take place, and who will be eligible in the initial stages etc.

This is obviously wonderful news as we all hope it will help us take a step back towards normality in the coming year, however can we please ask that patients do not ring us to enquire about this jab at the present time, as we are already understaffed, and have no current plans or information that we can provide to patients at this point.

You can rest assured that if/when a plan is in place, we will post information on our website/facebook page explaining what the procedures will be, and we thankyou for your understanding in this matter.

We will be following national guidance in terms of who can be vaccinated, so as to make the process as fair and transparent as possible.
So watch this space, and here's hoping for some encouraging news in the weeks to come. Thankyou all.


SHIELDING PATIENTS - Letters for those patients considered extremely vulnerable are being sent out by the Welsh Government / the Chief Medical Officer, and we are not able to produce these letters in the surgery, thankyou.
