Ashford says it's key to have facility in place throughout rollout
Installing fixed vaccination hub facilities at Ronaldsway hub cost more than temporary pop-up sites like those in the UK.
Health Minister David Ashford says the final costs are still being calculated, but that it was important to have a centre that could remain in place throughout the rollout.
The vaccination hub opens its doors today.
Mr Ashford says it was vital to have the right infrastructure in place:
Chief Minister fighting to retain seat
Exit polls show Island could return 15 new MHKs
Polling stations close on day of General Election
No voters disenfranchised by late opening poll station
