As we race against time to get everybody as vaxxed as possible before the hopeful end to most social restrictions on July 19, it’s never been easier to get vaccinated against Covid-19. After months of torturous waiting for your age group to get the call, you can basically now just rock up and get those antibodies pumping.
Dubbed the ‘Grab a Jab’ drive, there are now a rotating selection of major and minor walk-in centres where you can turn up and get a first jab with no appointment necessary, or a second jab from eight weeks after your first. (Anecdotally, we’ve heard this is 21 days if you’ve had the Pfizer vaccine – it was trialled on that basis, and from what we’ve heard, walk-in centres appear happy to give it out as such, though we should stress that’s not the official advice).
They’re stratified into age groups, with some only offering jabs to 40-plus and 50-plus (presumably these places are largely giving out AstraZeneca), but there are plenty for ages 18 and up.
