COVID-19 booster vaccinations have begun in Devon for those who are most vulnerable to coronavirus.
The programme is being rolled out to the same priority groups as previously. This means care home residents, health and social care workers, people aged over 50 years old, those aged 16 to 49 years old with underlying health conditions, adult carers and adult household contacts of immunosuppressed individuals will be prioritised.
Eligible people will be offered a booster dose at least 26 weeks (six months) after they had their second COVID-19 vaccine dose.
The majority of people who are currently eligible will receive their invite within the next three weeks. Please wait to be contacted via letter, text or email before trying to book and don’t contact the NHS until you are invited for your booster.
Once you have received an invitation, you can book your appointment using the National Booking Service via the NHS website or by calling 119.
