THE coronavirus vaccination centre at the Three Counties Showground has closed after staff were redeployed elsewhere.

The showground site in the Malvern Hills will be closed today (July 21) and tomorrow (July 22), with a spokesman saying it was a pre-planned closure.

They said: "The Three Counties vaccination centre was originally scheduled to be closed on these dates due to a scheduled event taking place at the showground, which has since been cancelled.

"As it was a planned closure date, our staff have been deployed elsewhere, so the site will be open today until 3pm, and closed tomorrow (Thursday, July 22).”
