Autumn Booster Jab programme starts today

Today the NHS autumn booster programme kicks off, with care home residents, staff and the housebound to first receive their jabs – keeping the most vulnerable in our society safe and strengthening our defences against the virus.

  • We know in order to retain our freedoms and live with Covid we must keep the most vulnerable in our society protected from the virus.
  • Britain's autumn booster rollout begins today with care home residents and staff amongst the first in the world to receive the new, variant-tackling jabs. Around seven million people who are at highest risk, including the over 75s and those with weakened immune systems, will be able to book a vaccine through the National Booking Service, with the first appointments available from the following week and invitations landing on doormats from 7 September. 
  • With a record 3,100 sites forming part of the rollout, the autumn booster roll out will top up the immunity of the most vulnerable and help us to live with the virus without restrictions.

Protect your family - protect your community - protect yourself. If you are invited to take part in the booster programme, get the jab to protect all three.
