The wait for an appointment for a first dose of the Pfizer vaccine at the newly opened Victor Harbor COVID-19 clinic has already blown out to almost two months.

The centre only opened on Monday but has already proven popular. 

The first available appointment to book a first dose of the Pfizer vaccine is now on 4 September.

People aged over 40 can also go to Noarlunga to receive their Pfizer vaccine.  

As of Thursday afternoon, the earliest available Pfizer appointment at Noarlunga was on 25 July.

People aged 16-39 in rural areas are eligible to receive the Pfizer vaccine but have to attend a rural clinic to get their injection.

Aside from the new centre at Victor Harbor, there are rural clinics at Mount Barker and Murray Bridge.  

Mount Barker has appointments available from 14 July and Murray Bridge from 27 July.

Multiple appointments to receive the Astra-Zeneca vaccine at the Victor Harbor clinic are available on the day or next day of booking.

The Astra-Zeneca vaccine also remains available via GPs and will be available at local pharmacies in the near future.
