Hello all and welcome to your latest Vaccination Hub Bulletin.
Wow Westies! What we have achieved over the past few days in our Hubs is nothing short of remarkable!
Our Melbourne Showgrounds Hub vaccinated 7199 people between Thursday morning and Sunday evening, with a record breaking 2039 people through on Friday!
During the same period, our Sunshine Hub welcomed 8813 people through the doors, with Sunday seeing an extraordinary 2362 people turning up to get the #jabdone.
Our Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre Sub-Hub has also been seeing huge numbers with 5910 people through from Thursday to Sunday.
That is a whopping 22, 995 people getting their #jabdone in just four days!
None of this would be possible if it weren’t for our dedicated and hard working staff.
We see you….even those working behind the scenes! We are so grateful for all that you are doing to help keep our community safe.
See below for some photos of our Hubs and our hard working staff taken over the weekend. We even managed to catch our very own Lisa Smith, West Metro COVID-19 Vaccination Program Director in action!

The ongoing outbreak we are experiencing is a stark reminder of how we need to pull together, to encourage our loved ones, our friends, our neighbours and our entire community to get the #jabdone.
You can direct them to our new community facing site (https://covid-19vaccination.wh.org.au/) for all they need to know including guidance on how to book.
