“We want to make this process as easy and comfortable as possible for kids and parents,” said Olivia Sice, COVID-19 Clinical Coordinator, FWLHD.
She said that evidence shows having children vaccinated will help protect them against severe illness and possible long-term effects from COVID -19
The kids only clinic will run from 10am to 1pm today. (Saturday, January 22).
“Vaccination will also protect your friends, family and the community, including vulnerable people of all ages,” Mrs Sice said.

If you have any questions, concerns or underlying health conditions talk it over with your GP or specialist care team.
