Spring Covid-19 top up vaccination ends on 30June – two weeks left to come forward

 

Do 30 czerwca NHS oferuje szczepionki przeciwko COVID-19 osobom, u których występuje zwiększone ryzyko ciężkiego przebiegu choroby wywołanej przez wirusa – w tym osobom w wieku 75 lat i starszym (do 30 czerwca 2024 r.), osobom mieszkającym w domach opieki dla osób starszych oraz osobom w wieku 6 miesięcy i starszym z osłabionym układem odpornościowym.

Local vaccination teams have arranged a series of walk-in clinics for those eligible to pop in for their jab with no appointment needed in St Werburghs, Knowle, Brislington, Easton, Hartcliffe, Lockleaze and Weston-super-Mare. Full details of clinics and eligibility can be found on our Get Your Covid-19 Vaccination page.

If you prefer to make an appointment, you can book using the NHS National Booking Service, their NHS App or by calling 119 for free. If you have a young child aged 6 months to 4 years who is severely immunosuppressed and entitled to a Covid-19 vaccination this spring, please email vaccinations@nbt.nhs.uk to arrange an appointment.

Protection against Covid-19, either from catching the virus or from a previous vaccination, can fade over time and the virus can change. For some, particularly older people and those with a weakened immune system, Covid-19 can still be very dangerous and even life-threatening. A spring top-up vaccination is being offered to provide protection to people at highest risk from a Covid infection for the months ahead.
