Covid-19 Vaccine
Everyone aged 32 and over are now eligible for the vaccine. Anyone eligible who has not yet had a Covid-19 vaccination, but would like to, please book on-line here or call 119 to book a convenient date.
Pharmacies
Some pharmacies across Sheffield are now administering covid-19 vaccinations, appointments are booked the same way, call 119 or book book on-line here Upwell Pharmacy (S4 8 AN) currently has capacity for this week.
Had the vaccine? Still get tested if you get symptoms
It can take a few weeks to build up protection from the COVID-19 vaccine. If you develop symptoms of COVID-19 you must still get tested, it is possible to have caught it and not realise until after your vaccine. You will need both doses to be fully protected. No vaccine is completely effective, some people may still get COVID despite having a vaccination, but this should be less severe.
