No end in sight?
4 GoodGymers made their way to help the Brunel Primary Care Network in Portsmouth.
- Friday, 2nd of April 2021
- Led by Judy Knapp
As Eli, Rachel, Paul and I arrived for the afternoon shift, we were each amazed by the sight of the queue. Even with gaps for social distancing, there were LOTS! of people queuing for their jab. The queue went down the road, round the corner, past the back gates and up the hill....!
The older tier group were returning for their 2nd vaccine, the 40+ age group for 1st vaccine, plus University staff invited on a walk-in basis.
Eli battled against a sore left arm from her recent jab, and had a swollen right hand after hours of thermometer use. Rachel squeezed anti-bac onto hundreds of hands and I directed drivers & cyclists to their 15 minutes of camping. Meanwhile, Paul managed the dark side, overseeing the tent.
The queue was beaten just on 3pm and Rachel & I were dismissed. Eli and Paul remained on duty as the Centre was staying open until 5pm. Bravo to them!
