COVID-19 Vaccination Programme

Covid-19 Vaccine update: October 2021

COVID BOOSTER PROGRAMME

Please note that East Barnwell Health Centre will not be holding Covid Booster vaccination clinics. These will be offered at large NHS vaccination centres locally. Booster vaccine doses will be available on the NHS for people most at risk from COVID-19 who have already had 2 doses of a vaccine. The NHS will let you know when it’s your turn to have one. If you are eligible you will be able to book your appointment 6 months after receiving your second dose.

For further information on Covid-19 Booster vaccinations, please visit: Covid Vaccination Booster Programme

Still need to have your first or second Covid vaccine dose?

Anyone over the age of 18 can now book a Covid vaccination at one of the large vaccination centres. Appointments can be booked by ringing 119 or by visiting  NHS Covid Vaccination.

Patients aged 16-18 can obtain a Covid Vaccination at one of the walk in clinic- information can be found HERE

 Information about vaccinations for the extremely clinical vulnerable children age 12-15 can be found HERE
