Please remember to have your second dose
Please remember that your second Covid-19 vaccine is just as important as the first.
It helps to provide longer-term protection.
So, when your second appointment is offered, keep doing your bit by keeping it and help to protect you and your family from Covid-19.
If you’ve had your Covid vaccine you still need to keep following the government guidance.
