Covid: What are the vaccine rules for NHS staff and can I get a booster?
A booster is an extra dose of Covid vaccine, which helps people who have already been double-jabbed retain their immunity. About 50 million people aged over 12 in the UK have now had at least one dose of Covid vaccine. As well as boosters, some people with severely suppressed immune systems are being given a third primary jab as part of their basic vaccination - they may also be offered a booster at a later date. Young people aged 16 and 17 are also being offered one dose, but with the intention of a second at a later date. There is no vaccine currently approved for under-12s in the UK.In England, adults and those within three months of turning 18 can book first or second jabs online, by calling 119, or visiting a walk-in clinic; 16 and 17-year-olds should contact their GP.In Scotland, over-16s can register for their first or second vaccine online, or by calling 0800 030 8013; over-12s can go to drop-in vaccination clinics.
