Autumn booster eligibility

(and get your flu at the same time!) 

COVID-19 is more serious in older people and in people with certain underlying health conditions. For these reasons, people aged 65 years and over, staff and residents of care homes, people aged 6 months and over in a clinical risk group, household contacts of immunosuppressed people and unpaid carers aged 12 to 64, are being offered an autumn booster of COVID-19 vaccine.

If you are eligible you will be invited for your booster, or you can book through your GP practice or email nsc.clinic@nhs.net.  You can also look for an appointment on the National Booking System - Book, cancel or change a COVID-19 vaccination appointment - NHS (www.nhs.uk)

Everyone eligible for a COVID booster is also entitled to a flu vaccination.  You can receive these both at the same time so that you are fully vaccinated for the winter!

Please be aware that we are offering flu vaccinations alongside COVID vaccinations for anyone eligible.  Either / both vaccines can be booked via the email address - nsc.clinic@nhs.net or via the National Booking site.  Book or manage a coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccination - NHS (www.nhs.uk)
