On Friday, the Victorian government announced carers and disability workers, those with specific underlying health conditions, and high-risk workers such as defence personnel and meat processing workers, under 50 years old, could receive the eligible Pfizer jab from Monday.
An AWH spokeswoman confirmed limited walk-in spots were available at the hub so it was best to book ahead by calling 1800 675 398.
IN OTHER NEWS:
So far, AWH have administered more than 6700 vaccines at its Wodonga and Wangaratta hubs. Wait times at the clinic are approximately 30 minutes, and if anyone walks in without an appointment, they should be prepared to wait until an immuniser is available.
Victorians over the age of 50 can now get the AstraZeneca shot from their GP.
From next Monday, taxi, bus and ride-share drivers under 50 years old will be eligible for vaccination.
