PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Coronavirus: Vaccination (25 October 2021)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps he is taking to increase covid-19 booster jab uptake in (a) Newark and the surrounding areas and (b) Nottinghamshire.

Asked by:
Robert Jenrick (Conservative)

Answer

NHS England are contacting those eligible for a COVID-19 booster vaccine, including those in Newark and Nottinghamshire, inviting them to book an appointment by either calling 119 or booking online. If an eligible individual has not been contacted at six months and one week since their second dose, they are invited to book their booster dose via the National Booking Service without the need of an invitation letter.

A national ‘BOOST your immunity this winter’ communications campaign has launched setting out the importance of getting the COVID-19 booster and flu vaccinations this winter.
