Those who are at a higher risk of developing more severe cases of coronavirus are being advised to book a booster vaccine in spring and autumn this year.
A new booster vaccination campaign began in September 2022, with a high number of people booking the third booster dose. According to the Government website, following the high uptake rates for the "initial (third) booster dose of COVID-19 vaccine in December 2021, further uptake has been low at less than 0.1 per cent per week since April 2022 in all eligible people under 50 years of age.
"Similarly, uptake of primary course vaccination, which has been widely available since 2021, has plateaued in recent months across all age groups."
