COVID Booster - Spring Vaccinations
People aged 75 and over, residents in care homes for older adults and people aged 5 years and over with weakened immune systems are being offered an additional COVID vaccination this spring.
Protection from the vaccines decreases over time, particularly in older people or those with weakened immune systems. The extra vaccination is to help make sure those at greatest risk continue to have high levels of protection against the virus and help prevent them from becoming seriously ill or needing hospital care.
If you are eligible for an extra vaccination, we will contact you when it is your turn with details of how to make an appointment.
We are only getting limited supplies of vaccines on a weekly basis and are contacting patients to book in to the vaccination clinics we are holding so please be patient.
Eligible patients may also receive a letter or text from the NHS National Booking Service inviting you to book an appointment so you can choose to do this if you prefer or wait for us to contact you.
If you still need a first or second COVID vaccination, you can book an appointment up until 30 June at www.nhs.uk/covidvaccination or by calling 119.
