A new site is set to open at the former John Lewis store in the city centre in mid-September. Any second dose appointments in the interim will take place at Aberdeen Health Village.

The Aberdeen John Lewis branch opened in 1989 but its closure was confirmed this year
The floating offshore wind conference on 15 and 16 September will be its first public event since the pandemic began.
It was understood the former Debenhams had been in the running to take over, but the John Lewis building in George Street is being adapted by NHS Grampian instead.
John Lewis opened in 1989 in Aberdeen and employed 265 people.
Its permanent closure was confirmed in June.
