A GROUP of local volunteers have assisted with the coronavirus vaccine roll out in Fivemiletown.
The Valley Medical Practice began administering the vaccine on Wednesday, January 13, and the Fivemiletown Coronavirus Response Group were delighted to assist.
Dr Walter Boyd from the practice thanked all the volunteers from the group and St John’s Ambulance for their assistance in making the process as seamless as possible. He also thanked Janice Allen, principal of Fivemiletown Community College for use of the school premises for the roll out.
Madge McCaffery was the first local resident to receive the vaccine closely followed by Gertie Primrose from Coonian.
