THE East Lothian Community Hospital in Haddington will become a permanent drop-in Covid-19 vaccination clinic from tomorrow (Wednesday).

The facility will be open every day including weekends for all adults over 18.

It will be open 8.30am-12.30pm and 1.30-3.30pm.

Those with scheduled appointments and those without can all attend.

People still to receive their first dose can visit the clinic, as can those waiting for a second dose who received their first dose more than eight weeks ago.

The hospital has been used as a drop-in clinic before but for no more than two days at a time; it will now be open permanently.

This week, a mobile drop-in unit is travelling around the Lothians to make it easier for people working in retail, hospitality or those who are out and about to get their vaccine, both first and second dose.

NHS Lothian is working with the Scottish Ambulance Service on the bus, which is open for all of those over the age of 18.

It only carries Moderna and Astra Zeneca vaccines and will be open 11am-9pm.

It is in Fort Kinnaird today (Tuesday) and will be in the Grassmarket in Edinburgh tomorrow (Wednesday) and Thursday. It will be in West Lothian on Friday, with locations for Saturday and Sunday yet to be confirmed.
