Vaccination is also open to people who do not live in the health board area - for instance those who work in Fife but live elsewhere.
Ben Hannan, NHS Fife chief pharmacist, said: “We want to make it easier than ever for people to access the COVID-19 vaccination.
“The process is simple, all you need to do is turn up – you don’t need any documentation or ID – our vaccination teams will be able to access everything we need from their computers.”He added: “It is really important that we all take the opportunity to be vaccinated when we can. It is the best chance we have of getting life back to normal with minimal disruption and restrictions.

“There are so many good reasons to get the vaccine and we hope that as many people as possible will visit our drop-in clinics over the next few days.”
