Covid-19 Vaccination Information

The Coronavirus (Covid-19) vaccine is safe and effective. It gives you the best protection against coronavirus.

Who can get the Covid-19 vaccine?

The NHS is currently offering the Covid-19 vaccine to people most at risk from coronavirus. At this time, the vaccine is being offered in some hospitals to:

  • some people aged 80 and over who already have a hospital appointment in the next few weeks
  • people who work in care homes
  • health care workers at high risk

The vaccine will be offered more widely, and at other locations, as soon as possible. When it is the right time people will receive an invitation to come forward. For most people this will be a letter, either from their GP or the national NHS. This letter will include all the information you will need to book appointments, including your NHS number.

Please do not contact the NHS to get an appointment until you get this letter.
