The NHS Covid-19 vaccination programme is underway
Derbyshire’s hospitals and GP practices have begun vaccinating priority patients and staff against Covid-19. Priority is based on age, and existing health risks.
If you are in a priority group then you are at high risk of getting Coronavirus, especially if you have a long-term condition such as diabetes, heart disease or respiratory conditions.
The vaccination is FREE.
If you are eligible and get invited for a vaccination, it’s really important you attend your appointment to protect yourself, and your family.
But please wait to be contacted by your GP practice and take up the offer for this life-saving vaccine.
