A free Pfizer vaccine clinic will open in Warwick within just a few weeks, giving all eligible Rose City residents access to the in-demand Covid jab.

The Darling Downs Health clinic will be set up at the Warwick Showgrounds from Tuesday, August 24 to Saturday, August 28.

All residents aged 16-59 will be able to get the vaccine at the clinic. 

Darling Downs Health Emergency Operations Centre executive lead Annette Scott encouraged anyone with questions about the vaccine to talk to their doctor or healthcare worker to get the most accurate and up-to-date information for them.

“The vaccination is safe and free. it is the best way to protect yourself, your loved ones, and your community,” she said.

Anyone eligible for and interested in getting the vaccine can pre-register here.

People who have already received one dose of the AstraZeneca vaccine must receive a second dose of AstraZeneca, rather than Pfizer.

The clinic will open from 8.30am – 3.50pm on August 24 – August 27 and from 8.30am – 1pm on Saturday at the Warwick Showgrounds.

Those attending the clinic must take ID, their Medicare card, and a pen.

Another Pfizer vaccination clinic will be opened in Stanthorpe from August 10 - 13.
