Three pop-up Covid-19 vaccine clinics are set to open in Donegal this weekend.
The walk-in clinics will take place in Carndonagh, Buncrana and Stranorlar from Friday to Sunday, 5th – 7th November.
The HSE has announced the pop-up centres to make it as easy as possible for anyone who has yet to receive their first dose of the Pfizer vaccine, to get vaccinated.
People who are waiting for their second dose Pfizer vaccine may also attend one of the walk-in clinics, once the interval of 21 days between doses has been reached.
Anyone who had a first dose of the AstraZeneca vaccine and does not want a second dose of AstraZeneca, can come to one of the clinics and get a Pfizer second dose vaccine instead.
The vaccination clinics times and venues are as follows and no appointment is needed:
Cardonagh – Colgan Hall

All COVID-19 vaccines are free of charge and give protection from COVID-19.
