A library in east London saw long queues as it was announced that people could walk in for surplus Covid-19 vaccine stock.
Walthamstow Library vaccinated 3,000 people on Wednesday after the call-out for local people for spare vaccines, who were prioritised based on risk.
Stella Creasy, Labour MP for Walthamstow, tweeted on Wednesday morning about the extra supply, saying: “Walthamstow there is extra supply of Covid-19 vaccine today at the library.
“If you are 50+; 18+ with a health condition; a carer; a health and social care or blue light worker you can walk in before 6.30pm for 1st vaccine. Bring NHS number and evidence of the category you are in!”
