A health board has asked people not to attend one of its mass vaccination centres without an appointment after an incorrect social media post was shared.
Cardiff and Vale University Health Board said people turning up at its Bayside mass vaccination centre were putting additional pressure on staff.
It also asked people to check official information before ringing the vaccination line.
The board said it was now inviting people in their 30s to get jabs.
