Covid Vaccine Preparation

Your Choice – Our Support

Covid vaccinations -Talk to your GP and other health practitioners in terms of your individual safety and health. My wish is that hopefully in the future people can choose whether they want to vaccinate against Covid or not. If they do choose to vaccinate, hopefully, they can choose which one is best for them.
