People who already have an appointment at one of the clinics offering walk-in vaccines should still attend at their timed slot and they will receive their vaccine as planned.

Booster doses of the coronavirus vaccine

There are 3 types of booster for the coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccine:

  1. A booster dose of the COVID-19 vaccine is available for everyone aged 16 and over, and some children aged 12 to 15, who have had a 2nd dose of the vaccine at least 3 months ago.
  2. A booster dose of the COVID-19 vaccine is available for anyone who had a severely weakened immune system when they had their first 2 doses and who had an additional primary dose (3rd dose) of the vaccine at least 3 months ago.
  3. An autumn booster of the COVID-19 vaccine is available to people aged 75 and over, people who live in a care home for older people, or people aged 12 and over who have a weakened immune system.

 

If you have not had a booster dose yet, you're still eligible and can book anytime.
