Millions of people will be able to book a Covid booster jab from this week as the autumn vaccination programme gets under way.
More than 700 care homes in England will be visited by vaccination teams from Monday, with thousands more jabs scheduled before the end of the month. From Wednesday, around seven million people in England, including those aged 75 and over, the immunosuppressed and health and care workers will be able to book a jab via the internet or by calling 119.
In Scotland, care home residents are among those being offered the jab, while Wales has already started its programme and Northern Ireland will commence rollout later this month. The NHS will contact people when it is their turn to book their vaccine.
