DOZENS of patients at a GP in Ombersley have defended the surgery after they were accused of allowing young people to ‘queue jump’ to receive the Covid-19 vaccine.
Last week, we reported that a member of the public was concerned after claiming young people were being vaccinated at Ombersley Medical Centre and then ‘boasting about it on social media.’
When asked whether the accusations were true a spokesman for the Clinical Commissioning Group said: “We’re unable to comment on individual cases as we continue to vaccinate our local community in line with the JCVI guidance.
“However, where there is a risk of vaccine potentially being wasted, it is sometimes necessary for us to vaccinate outside cohort.”
