Covid-19 Boosters

Like you, we are in the process of digesting the Prime Minister’s update on the dangers of the new Omicron variant.

Our teams have been busy over the weekend providing booster jabs for patients. Sadly we have continued to experience a high number of patients not attending for their booked appointments.

From tomorrow all over 18s who had their second dose more than 3 months ago will be eligible for a booster. We strongly encourage you to have the booster as soon as possible to ensure maximum protection against this new variant.

We will be spending tomorrow making plans to ensure we can offer as many boosters as possible. This may mean prioritising vaccines over other non-urgent work. We will, however,  do everything we can to ensure a safe and responsive service for our patients. We understand that Covid-19 isn’t the only health issue facing people at the moment and we are doing our best to provide a balance.

More information will be released via our social media, websites and other formats as soon as possible so please watch this space. In the meantime please do not contact us to book appointments for boosters - as soon as we have our plans in place we will communicate with patients.

Thank you for your continued support during this challenging time.
