Patients arriving too early 'biggest concern' for airport hub

Friday, 29 January 2021 06:38

Dawn McCann was among the first to have her jab in the newly opened facility.

Queues formed outside Ronaldsway on opening day

Health bosses are urging those heading to the airport vaccine hub to arrive no more than 10 minutes ahead of their appointment.

It's after queues formed outside Ronaldsway yesterday with many turning up between 30 minutes to an hour before they were due.

The hub's been designed to administer over 400 vaccinations a day but early arrivals caused people to wait outside.  

The message has been echoed by clinical general manager Linda Thompson:

Government is exploring options for shelters outside as well as staggering the numbers of wheelchair access drop offs.
