A doctors surgery in Hockley has urged patients to not contact them asking to be put in a higher priority group as they wait for the Covid vaccine.

Anyone who is eligible for the vaccine will be contacted by the surgery if they have any spare jabs at the end of the day. In a post, Greensward surgery said: Please, please, please can we politely request again that patients do not contact us via telephone or email asking if they can be put in to a higher priority group, or added to a stand-by-list .
