RSV Vaccine

Everyone turning 75 years old on or after the 1 September 2024 will be offered a single dose of RSV vaccine. This is because older adults are more at risk of serious complications from RSV.
You can still get the vaccine up to the day before you turn 80.

For the first year of the programme, the vaccine will also be offered to those who are already aged 75 to 79 years on 1 September 2024 as part of a catch-up programme.

Pregnant women are also being offered the vaccine to protect their babies from RSV. You can read the guide to the RSV vaccine for pregnant women here

Please see the patient information leaflet here for more information on the vaccine

Please wait to be contacted by the surgery. you will be sent an invitation to book your appointment. This vaccine cannot be given at the same time as the flu or covid.
