COVID-19 vaccinations
It is important to get your seasonal flu and COVID-19 vaccinations if you're at higher risk of getting seriously ill from these illnesses. Seasonal vaccines are offered because viruses change and protection fades over time.
COVID-19 vaccines are normally given seasonally, but some people with a severely weakened immune system may need additional protection at other times. The NHS will contact you if you are eligible for a seasonal COVID-19 vaccine.
A spring 2024 COVID-19 vaccination programme is underway. You may be eligible if you are:
- Aged 75 years and over
- Immunosuppressed (aged six months and over)
- A resident in a care home for older adults
If you have never been vaccinated before, or if you only had one dose, you can still get your vaccination.
For more information, visit the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Integrated Care System website.
You can also visit the NHS website to book, cancel or change a Covid-19 vaccination appointment.
