Get vaccinated. Get boosted. Get protected.

All people aged 40 to 49 years old who have not previously been eligible will soon be able to book an appointment for a COVID-19 booster dose. The NHS will update their website with more information when appointments become available to book.

Don't forget:

• Vaccines prevent serious illness, deaths and hospital admissions.
• Walk-in vaccination centres are available for young people to get their free vaccine.
• If you are eligible, get your booster jab as soon as you can.
• Continue following all safe behaviours to keep COVID-19 from spreading and remember:

• A well ventilated room can reduce the risk of COVID-19 infection by 70%.
• Younger people are at risk from COVID-19 and can pass on the illness to loved ones such as family and friends.
