 Get vaccinated or boosted now
The pandemic is not over yet and the vaccine is the best way to increase your protection against the serious consequences of COVID-19.
A booster vaccine is absolutely crucial to topping up your immunity against the Omicron variant.
More than 80% of eligible adults in England have already received their booster and this has allowed COVID-19 restrictions to be eased.
It is important that everyone who is eligible continues to come forward for their first, second and booster vaccinations.
You can book your appointment online, visit a walk-in or go to a pop-up vaccination clinic. In Elmbridge we have vaccination centres at Sandown Park racecourse in Esher and Emberbrook Community Centre for Health in Thames Ditton. Walk-in appointments are available at some sites. Find your nearest vaccination centre.
Get boosted now!
 England has returned to 'Plan A' measures
COVID-19 is still with us and the rates in Elmbridge remain high.
We have returned to Plan A in England, but please remember the importance of doing the right thing.
Public Health advice remains the same and should be followed:
-
get tested, and self-isolate if required (remember to report all your lateral flow test results whether positive, negative or void)
-
continue to wear a face covering in crowded and enclosed spaces where you may come into contact with other people you do not normally meet
- try to stay at home if you are feeling unwell
- wash your hands
- download and use the NHS COVID-19 app
- if you haven’t already, get boosted now
