The NHS Covid vaccine service is also now offering appointments to carers and pregnant women, with bookings able to be made online at: nhs.uk/covidvaccine or over the phone by calling 119. People aged 75 and over, the severely immunosuppressed, and frontline health and care workers have been able to book their latest booster dose since last Wednesday – with appointments starting from today. As with previous campaigns, those most at risk will be called forward first, with people able to book in online or through 119 as long as it has been three months since their last dose.
Chief primary care officer Amy Galea said: “There is no room for complacency in keeping Covid-19 on the backfoot, and this autumn booster will help protect those most at risk. Those aged 65 and over, pregnant women and carers are now able to get their jab. If you are one of those eligible, it is as important as ever to get your next dose, so please do come forward as soon as possible.”
