The COVID-19 Spring vaccination programme is underway with St Mary’s Hospital Vaccination Hub offering the Spring vaccine to those Islanders who are eligible.
Over 235,000 people across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight are eligible for a COVID-19 spring vaccine, including everyone aged 75 years and over, and those with a weakened immune system. People living in care homes are being prioritised and have already started to receive their vaccinations.
If you are eligible for a Spring vaccination you will be invited to book either directly through your GP practice or you can go ahead and book using the National Booking Service or NHS App or by calling 119. For those people without the app or not actively using it, text messages and letters will also be sent.
From Monday (17th April), St Mary’s Vaccination Hub is offering appointments on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 07:45 to1 17:45. Appointments can be booked using the National Booking System. Alternatively, you can also walk-in (no appointment needed) however, booked appointments will be prioritised and you may have a long wait.
The last spring vaccination appointments will be offered at St Mary’s on 29th June. Doses 1 and 2 will continue to be offered until 29th June and must be booked using the National Booking System.
Sue Lightfoot, St Mary’s Vaccination Hub Clinical Lead, said:
“COVID-19 is still very much with us and can cause serious illness and hospitalisation for some so it is really important that our over 75s and those with a weakened immune system come forward and have their spring vaccination.
“We look forward to welcoming people to the St Mary’s Hub and we expect to be very busy in the coming weeks so keep checking online as we release more appointments. We are unable to take calls directly but the National Booking System will be able to help with all enquiries relating to your vaccination appointment.”

Another Gates production
I know. It’s terrible. Ever since I got my jabs, I can’t stop myself buying Microsoft products. Computers, software, watches. You name it, I’ll buy it. Bill Gates has a lot to answer for.
True that’s why he does not take his own medicine, but others do.
He’s no fool.
Not putting another untested jab in my arm.
astra zenica removed their jab yesterday- didn’t hear that on the news with excess deaths up massively since we were all cajoled to put this crap in our bodies
That is because the late Lisa Shaw’s Husband is taking them to the cleaners.
No thank you.
R.I.P Lisa Shaw plus many more
No thanks, although all bought and paid for by the common people ide strongly suggest it’s not to be had. Why ? Because its caused uproar with those that have become so ill by doing so..The greedy little b***ards are laughing while their bank balance has just gone up another million.bout time we stopped all the drugs they push on us and looked for alternatives. Way too many people dying because of it
I see that Island Echo’s comments are upholding the tradition of being the place to meet fellow swivel-eyed conspiracy nuts and general all-round thicko loons.
Well done, Darren.
Maybe do something about this? Maybe actually require people to provide verifiable email addresses before posting?
You know, so that when someone posts something illegal it is them, and not you, who ends up in the dock?
Just a thought.
How dare you?! A swivel eyed conspiracy nut I may be, but an all round thicko-loon? Never! Take that back now you blaggard!
Still banging this old drum?
Not killed enough off with the jab yet?
Now the W H O are plugging Bird Flu.
I thought Bird Flu was when the Girlfriend gets woman flu
Give it up stop pushing the lies
More Vax injuries yea please
The persons administering these vaccines have no idea what’s in them.
People need to wake up and read real news on YouTube, not what ITV x BBC show.
Andrew Bridgen the Conservative MP brought up vaccine and excess Deaths in Parliament.
People who eat pork pies have no idea what’s in them either, but they still eat them. I don’t see them dropping like flies as you seem to suggest people having vaccinations are. Just a thought.
You need to go to Specsavers.
Don’t listen to the nutters. Vaccines save lives. Simple as that.
I know many persons who were double jabbed and they sadly died.
These vaccines do not stop transmission etc, everyone please do your research first.
It makes me wonder did they actually die due to the jab!, many persons
sadly have.
R.I.P to all those who have sadly died.
