COVID-19 vaccination appointments are now being issued for eligible infants and young children in Lanarkshire.
The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation has advised that infants and children aged six months to four years who have a condition that puts them at higher risk of serious illness be offered the vaccine.
NHS Lanarkshire is now sending appointment letters to the parents/carers of those children who have been identified as being eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine because their health records show they have one of the eligible conditions.
