Eligible Islanders have just under two weeks to get their COVID-19 spring booster vaccine. The vaccines are free of charge and are available at GP surgeries until Monday 30 June. Islanders need to contact their GP surgeries to make an appointment.
Islanders who are eligible for the vaccine include:
- those aged 75 and over
- those aged 6 months and over who are immunosuppressed
- residents in care homes for older people.
Residents in care homes are being vaccinated where they reside. Visit gov.je/SpringBooster for more information.
Primary Care Representative, Bryony Perchard, said: “It’s important that the eligible Islanders take up the offer before the end of June as they are at a higher risk of developing serious illness and being hospitalised. COVID-19 is not a seasonal illness so can affect anyone at any time. Vaccination not only reduces the chances of getting ill but also makes any infection less unpleasant.”
