Clinics administering the Pfizer vaccine will be held at Ysbyty Alltwen and the leisure centre in Dolgellau to vaccinate this younger age group during May.

The clinics at Ysbyty Alltwen will be held next Friday, Saturday and Sunday (14-16 May).

The Dolgellau clinic will take place on Friday, 21 May.

To book an appointment call 03000 841011 or 03000 841012.

Once you have had your vaccine, you must still act to prevent the spread of coronavirus in the community and continue to follow the Covid-19 guidance (social distancing, face coverings) to protect those around you.

While you cannot catch Covid-19 from the vaccine, it is possible to have caught Covid-19 and not realise you have the symptoms until after being vaccinated.

The most important symptoms of Covid-19 are recent onset of any of the following: a new continuous cough; a high temperature; a loss of, or change in, your normal sense of taste or smell; some people also have a sore throat, headache, nasal congestion, diarrhoea, nausea and vomiting.
