FLU VACCINE AGE 50-64
This winter, because of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic,
the NHS has the largest flu vaccination programme ever with vaccination now
being offered to those aged 50 to 64 years old.
It is important to prevent flu in this group, to protect
these people from serious illness and reduce hospitalisations from flu. Also, research shows that if you get both flu
and COVID-19 at the same time you may be more seriously ill. So, vaccination is
especially important this winter.
If you are aged 50 to 64 years old (including those who turn
50 by 31 March 2021) you will be invited to attend your GP surgery for the
vaccine.
Invitations have already been sent out, but if you have not
yet had your Flu Vaccine and are aged 50 to 64 please contact the surgery. We will only be able to offer this vaccine up
to 31 March 2021.

Coronavirus Vaccine Update
11th December 2020
Weymouth and Portland are
pleased to be receiving some coronavirus vaccine shortly.
Government guidance has
advised which patients should be invited, which is the over 80’s.
As you may be aware from the
media this first supply of vaccine is very limited.
We have had to prioritise
invites, again following Government guidance.
All those invited for this
first wave of vaccines will receive a letter.
It may be that not all
household members or carers, who are also over 80, are able to be invited this
time.
As soon as further vaccines
are received we will be able to invite more patients. We do not know for
certain when this will be but this is likely to be over the next few weeks.
Thank you for your understanding.
