We will be in the Vera area for a couple of months . And I was wondering does anybody have any information for Booster shots for the over 60ies who are tourists/non residents. Is there any walk in facility in Vera/Almeria, where a UK double vaccinated person can get a Booster shot. And will the UK Gov accept this when we return to the UK?

We’ve started doing it for 60+ now, but as far as I’m aware, residents only, not tourists

Thanks for the update. Yea, I have been reading that as well. I believe they will just have to give everybody that turns up the Booster shot. Other wise they will have an invisible group i.e. 90 day tourists, roaming around Almeria/Vera that are not totally vaxed up. Which is not a good health policy to have in this climate. So I will keep up to date and post here if there is any developments.

Checking in Vera Medical Centre on a regular basis seems to be a smart option
