The aim is to maximise uptake in those who have not yet availed of a vaccine or booster.
A pop-up Covid vaccination centre will open in Westmeath later this week.
The clinic will be in operation at Mullingar Primary Care Centre from 12pm to 6.30pm this Saturday, 23rd July.
The Pfizer vaccine will be on offer for anyone over the age of 12, along with booster shots for those who are eligible.
The HSE says the aim is to maximise uptake in those who have not yet availed of a Covid vaccine or booster shot.
Nessa Lynch, Operations Manager of Simonstown Community Vaccination Centre, which is providing the clinic, says;
"Our aim is to provide an accessible site for any persons 12 years and older who have not yet received a vaccination/booster/second vaccination to attend our pop-up clinic to avail of a vaccine. We have made great progress with our community vaccination programme throughout Midlands Louth Meath CHO and we want to build on these gains and ensure as many people as possible avail of the vaccine."
Des O ‘Flynn, Chief Officer of Midlands Louth Meath CHO, added;
"Vaccines are working and helping to prevent severe illness across Ireland. Therefore, it is important that people receive their booster/second COVID-19 vaccine as soon as they can. That way we can protect ourselves, our loved ones and our wider community. We would encourage eligible people to avail of the opportunity to take up a vaccination at the pop-up clinic in Mullingar."
