The leader of Nottingham City Council, Cllr David Mellen has called on people to take up the vaccine.
In an update sent today Monday 8 February, Cllr Mellen said:
‘Vaccinations, alongside testing and observing lockdown rules, remain a significant weapon in our armoury against Covid.
‘The local rollout is gaining momentum and from today, the City Council’s Customer Hub is supporting the NHS with ensuring all those invited for a vaccination are able to access one.
‘The team will be calling those who have not yet made a booking, starting with the over 80s. More people still need to step forward to take up bookings, especially from our BAME communities where there is lower take-up.
‘If you know anybody who is eligible for the vaccination, please help them arrange a booking – there are some simple tips on who can get a jab so far and how they go about it here: https://nottsccg.nhs.uk/covid-
“I know a lot of people who have lost loved ones to Covid-19.”
