Health Secretary and NE Cambs MP Steve Barclay said: “Over the last two years, more than a million vaccinations have been delivered in the county’s large vaccination centres.
Getting my autumn booster was quick and easy & it's fantastic to see over 15 million people across the country have now done the same – equivalent to nearly 60% of those eligible.
Thank you to heroic NHS staff and volunteers for keeping us safe this winter. https://t.co/b0il5kSVCE— Steve Barclay (@SteveBarclay) November 21, 2022
“The staff and volunteers have made a huge difference in the battle against Covid.
“Many thanks to every one of them.
“Vaccinations are still the best form of protection from severe illness from Covid-19 and I would urge anyone eligible to get a jab. Find out where your nearest location is at www.thevaccinators.co.uk. “
