The NHS continues to urge the public to come forward for a Covid-19 vaccination, if eligible. All sites are offering first, second and booster jabs as well as vaccinations for 5-15-year-olds. The Covid-19 vaccination has a significant impact in lowering people’s risk of serious illness and hospitalisation and health bosses are encouraging all eligible people to come forward and top up their immunity ahead of the summer period. Parents and guardians are also being encouraged to book their 5-11s in for a vaccine to make sure they are protected, and two new clinics have opened to this age cohort. You can find out more here.
Book your Covid-19 jab: You can book on the NHS website or call 119.
