COVID Booster Vaccine Update πŸ’‰πŸ’‰

We have been informed that the COVID Vaccine Booster program is due to commence from Southam Clinic from Thursday 7th October.

Eligible patients will receive a text message in due course inviting them to book an appointment. Please be patient as messages will likely be staggered according to vaccine supply.

Please also be aware that you can only have your booster vaccine if your second vaccine was more than 6 months ago.

The booster is available to the following people:

  • people aged 50 and over

  • people who live and work in care homes

  • frontline health and social care workers

  • people aged 16 and over with a health condition that puts them at high risk of getting seriously ill from COVID-19

  • carers aged 16 and over

  • people aged 16 and over who live with someone who is more likely to get infections (such as someone who has HIV, has had a transplant or is having certain treatments for cancer, lupus or rheumatoid arthritis)

For more details on the booster program please visit NHS.uk

Please note - we are continuing to deliver Flu vaccines from the Surgery. We still have appointments available, so please book online if you have not yet had your Flu vaccine.
