COVID-19 and booster updates

 

COVID-19 and booster updates People in the following groups who haven't had a second booster vaccine can now boost their protection: People aged 50 and older. People aged 12 or over with a long-term health condition like diabetes, asthma or heart disease. Healthcare workers. Anyone who is at least 16 weeks pregnant. If you're pregnant and you haven't had a first booster, you can get this at any stage of your pregnancy. Your next COVID-19 vaccine will help protect you from serious illness in the months ahead. This is because protection from previous vaccines or from COVID-19 infection, decreases over time. If you've had COVID-19 recently, wait 4 months before booking your vaccine appointment. Vaccines are also available from participating GPs and pharmacies.
