If the jab clinic had been a post office or a bank, I wouldn’t have gone in
Friday, 22nd January 2021
• I COUNT myself fortunate for having received one Covid-19 vaccine and thank the staff and volunteers at Bingfield Street for making this possible.
However, had the centre been a bank, supermarket, or a post office, I would not have entered.
In spite of all the precautions taken, there were too many people in this venue for adequate social distancing and little ventilation.
I was perhaps 40 minutes inside the centre and felt uncomfortable. There must be larger, more suitable, premises in the borough for vaccinations to take place.
The Business Design Centre at the Angel would be ideal. It has excellent transport links, a lift, escalator and allows for social distancing.
A large gymnasium or marquee would also be appropriate. I see that some cathedrals have become designated vaccination centres.
Furthermore where are the usual medical services held that were available at the Bingfield Centre?
