HEALTH board bosses have apologised after a blunder which has seen some people receive second vaccination appointments less than eight weeks after their first.
In a tweet, NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde warned that 'some people' may have been sent an appointment letter less than eight weeks after receiving their first.
Members of the public have been asked to check their appointment is a minimum of eight weeks after their first dose as second doses cannot be given any earlier. Those affected should not have received their dose before May 2.
