GGD Brabant-Zuidoost will close the doors of the XL vaccination location on the Haverdijk in Helmond for good next week. From 9 March, residents in Helmond can now visit a pop-up location in the Fletcher Wellness Hotel. On Thursday 2 March, the GGD will put the last corona shot on the Haverdijk. This location will be open 1 more time on Saturday 4 March in honor of HPV Awareness Day, on which day the GGD offers free walk-in for HPV vaccinations for young adults aged 19 to 26.
Closure XL vaccination location Helmond
“Since the opening of the XL vaccination location at Haverdijk at the end of April 2021, we have placed more than half a million corona injections at this location. This location always suited us like a glove, we enjoyed working here and received many residents in almost 2 years, but the jacket has become too big for us. It’s time to close this XL location. In Helmond we are now switching to a pop-up location in the Fletcher Wellness Hotel. In addition, we keep the vaccination pavilion in Eindhoven as a base location in this region,” says Karin Sarrucco, Covid-19 project leader of GGD Brabant-Zuidoost.
New location Helmond
2 vaccinations are available at the new pop-up location in the Fletcher Wellness Hotel: the repeat vaccination against corona for 12+ and the HPV vaccination for young adults aged 19 to 26. You can make an appointment, but it is not necessary. Upon arrival, residents report to the GGD desk in the lobby.
This location is easily accessible by bicycle, car or train; from Helmond train station it is a 10-minute walk to this pop-up location. Residents arriving by car can park for a fee in the parking garage of the Fletcher hotel.
Other corona vaccinations, such as the basic series and the vaccinations for children with a high medical risk, are only available at the Eindhoven location. An appointment is required for this. The Moderna vaccine is also available at the Eindhoven location, only the Pfizer vaccine is available at pop-up locations.
1 single repeat shot against corona
Have you already had a repeat shot after September 18, 2022? Then you cannot get a 2nd repeat shot at the GGD. You are adequately protected.
