Brunswick Agricultural Show to host mass vaccination clinic, offering first and second Pfizer jabs

Brunswick residents rolled up in their masses at the Brunswick Agricultural Show after the State Government announced a pop-up vaccination clinic to be set up on the showgrounds. The Brunswick Show’s clinic provided information and free Pfizer vaccinations throughout the day to individuals who had yet to get their initial jab as well as those who were waiting on their second shot. Those who attended Saturday’s show were able to visit the WA Country Health Service tent and receive the jab after providing their medical details or previous vaccination record.

Previous mass clinics in the State’s north and Great Southern have administered more than 3000 vaccines with pop-ups expected in Halls Creek and Kununurra following Brunswick’s clinic.
