NHS issues warning as last day for universal Covid jab approaches

Those eligible to receive the spring Covid booster jab are being urged to come forward by the NHS as the campaign is set to close at the end of the month. Friday June 30 is also the last chance for anyone to get their first or second Covid vaccine if they haven’t already.

After this date, the NHS is moving to a targeted seasonal offer for those at increased risk. Over the next four weeks, there are millions of appointments available at thousands of sites across the country, making it easy for people to get the spring booster.

The NHS Covid-19 Vaccination Programme has provided more than 3.6 million people with a spring booster to date, which is more than half of those eligible. The campaign kicked off on April 3 in adult care homes and roving NHS teams have now visited around nine in 10 care homes.
