First and second dose walk-in vaccine clinics are available in Carmarthen and Llanelli this week.
Anyone wanting their first dose who is over 18 can attend, as well as a second vaccine dose if it is due. There is no need to contact the health board to book an appointment.
Vaccine clinics are at the drive-through at the showground in Nantyci (from 10am to 7pm), the Halliwell Conference Centre (from Thursday, July 1, 10am to 8pm) and the Ffwrnes Theatre, Llanelli (from 10am to 9pm).
If you have already registered using the online form, you are still welcome to attend the walk-in clinic and if you have a scheduled appointment, please keep your appointment time.
If you wish to have assurance that the appropriate vaccine is available, the health board has said you can contact the Hywel Dda Command Centre on 0300 303 8322 or by email on COVIDenquiries.hdd@wales.nhs.uk before travelling to a centre.
Alison Evans, Lead Clinical Nurse for Hywel Dda’s mass vaccination centres, said: “Following the confirmation last week by the First Minister that Wales is at the start of a third wave, we knew we needed to make it as easy as possible for people to access the vaccine.
“I am incredibly proud of all our vaccination teams across our centres who are working incredibly hard to make sure we are able to provide the vaccine people need, when they need it.
“If you haven’t had your first vaccine it is never too late; call in to your local centre and we will arrange this for you. We have plans in place to ensure we can vaccinate most people there and then but if for any reason we can’t please be assured we will get a vaccine sorted for you as soon as possible.
“Our staff will also be more than happy to speak to anyone who is unsure if they want to have the vaccine and may have questions they want answers to before having one. We have friendly, expert teams across all our centres so please, if you have any doubts about having the vaccine, please call in to see us for a chat. We will answer any questions you may have so you can make the right decision for you.”
