PEOPLE have been urged to stick to their coronavirus vaccination appointment times as queues begin to grow outside vaccine centres across south Essex. The George Hurd Centre, in Basildon, and Highlands Surgery, in Leigh, both had large numbers of people lining up outside waiting to be given their potentially lifesaving jab. Councillors in Southend and Basildon have welcomed the keen attitude of residents wanting the vaccine, but have urged people to keep within their appointment window to keep the queues down.
