A VACCINATION bus will run drop-in clinics at supermarkets across Glasgow in a bid to deliver the coronavirus jag to more Scots.

NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde has announced its latest drop-in Covid vaccination venues - including a Co-op in the Gorbals and Springburn's Tesco Extra.

The bus, which is operated by Scottish Ambulance Service, will offer Moderna to anyone aged 18-29 years wishing to receive a first dose of the vaccine or anyone who has been waiting more than eight weeks for their second Moderna jab. 

AstraZeneca is also available to anyone over the age of 40 years who has either not received a first dose or has been waiting more than eight weeks for their second jab. 

The vaccination bus, which recently celebrated delivering more than 10,000 jags, bolsters the current drop-in and appointment centres running across Greater Glasgow and Clyde.
