(Barbados Nation) The Pfizer vaccine will be available to members of the general public, aged 18 and up, from today.
The Immunisation Unit will allow people to walk into the vaccination centres tomorrow, as well as Saturday, August 21, and Sunday, August 22, to receive first doses of the vaccine of their choosing, either the Pfizer or Sinopharm.
They are cautioned, however, that there might be a wait depending on how many people show up to be vaccinated.
The website, vaccine.gov.bb, will open for bookings later this weekend for appointments starting Monday, August 23. The process will be done by appointment after Sunday.
