Important information: Autumn/ winter flu and COVID-19 vaccination clinics open for reservations

 

Registered patients who are eligible for a flu vaccination are being invited to reserve their vaccine ahead of our autumn/ winter clinics.

Some patients will also be eligible for a COVID-19 vaccination. Your invitation will explain which vaccination, or vaccinations, you are being offered and what you need to do next.

Where available, patients who are eligible for both vaccinations may be able to receive them during the same appointment.

Flu and COVID-19 viruses can change over time, and the protection provided by previous vaccinations can reduce. Having the vaccinations you are eligible for can help protect you from becoming seriously unwell this winter.
