Pewsey Surgery, Pewsey Gill May, Director of Nursing and Quality, said: “Getting all of our GP-led sites open within the first two working weeks of the new year had always been our goal and, although there is still a long way to, we are delighted to be up and running. “Some people may be anxious about not having been invited to receive their vaccine, but I can reassure them that no person will be missed, so please don’t worry as every day we are contacting more and more people to come forward to get the jab. “We have already given the vaccine to thousands of local people, and these numbers will continue to increase week on week.
