Booster vaccine

Hello

 You didnt say where this was taking place? 

 If it was the vaccinations taking place at  Torrevieja Hospital then people who have been today said a SIP card  (Health card) was required so, that won't be possible for all non residents.

If you have a temporary  sip card you can get one

I have a temporary sip card that was issued in April this year, is it still valid or would it need updating. Thank you.

There is an expiry date on the card . If it has expired they will issue you a new one in your local centro de salud 

Thank you for your reply, there is no expiry date on my temporary sip card only a issue date.

I have a temporary one as well ,got it in October . It has a 6 month time limit . You probably need to update it 

Not good if that is the case, as then I would have to make a appointment and go to the padron office for a up to date padron! And then visit my local health centre and there is always a long queue each day there, I was hoping today to get the booster jab at Torrevieja hospital, but probably there will be a long queue like yesterday, so imagine if I queued all that time and then get turned away because my temporary sip card had expired!!! What a nightmare, looks like I will have to toss a coin, thank you again, stay safe and healthy my friend and merry Christmas.

You dont need a padron to get a temporary sip card i didnt . You might be lucky (because of time of year ) at the health centre if you go early . I believe they are giving boosters until about 8 this evening . Give it a shot and good luck . Merry Christmas to you too 

Hi, the reason I mentioned the padron was when I first attended my local health centre to obtain a temporary sip card last March which I needed  to get my first Covid jab I was refused as my padron was over 3 months old! And yes if the queue today at torrevieja hospital is less than yesterday when I attempted to get a booster jab I will get in line, fingers crossed.
