Listen to the Podcast with Matthew Tallis from West Moreton Health
School communities are the focus of the coming Super Pfizer Weekend when COVID-19 vaccination clinics pop up at 3 highschools in the region.
The weekend coincides with second doses for those who were vaccinated at the first Super Walk In Weekend three weeks ago, and the clinics are open to anyone aged over 12.
West Moreton Health COVID-19 Response Executive Lead Matthew Tallis said the clinics were offered in partnership with the Darling Downs and West Moreton PHN.
“It’s a great opportunity for Mum, Dad and any kids aged over 12 to get vaccinated on the way home from soccer practice, ballet class or shopping,” Mr Tallis said.
“Getting vaccinated does not take long, so it won’t put a dint in your day.”
In 3 weeks’ time, the clinics will return to the high schools so local residents can get their second doses.
