The ‘walk-in’ vaccinations centres where people will not need to book an appointment will start operating on Thursday the health ministry announced on Tuesday.

According to health ministry spokesperson Margarita Kyriacou, these centres will start operating in all districts.

They will be housed in existing vaccination centres, and people will be able to go there and get jabbed without first booking an appointment.

This concerns people who have not been vaccinated before and not those who already received a first dose.

Initially the Pfizer vaccine will be administered, but if there is interest, other vaccines will be offered.

The walk-in centres will operate in existing vaccination centres while working hours will be shorter at first to check public interest and prevent spoilage of vaccines.

The measure is aimed at further facilitating people getting vaccinated.

So far, 67.5 per cent of the population has received at least a first dose, while 57.5 per cent completed their vaccination regimen.

More information on which centres will operate as walk-in centres are to be announced soon.

Well done Cyprus

Great idea, because a lot are held back because of work issues and work times

Great results today from the first day of the walk in vaccination centres

The uptake was so good that the government are going to allocate more vaccines per walk in hub
