People aged 60-64 to start receiving COVID-19 vaccination invitation letters

Wednesday, 24 February 2021 19:18

In the next week Cheshire residents aged 60-64 will receive a letter inviting them to come forward for a COVID-19 vaccination.

The quickest and easiest way to arrange an appointment is via the national booking service, which offers appointments at local NHS Vaccination Centres from 9am-11pm, seven days a week.

Venues include NHS Vaccination Centres at Chester Racecourse, Alderley Park Conference Centre and five pharmacies across Cheshire.

People aged 65 or over who have already been invited for a COVID-19 vaccination are also advised to use the national booking service to arrange their appointment as GP-led services are currently focusing on vaccinating people aged 16-64 who are clinically vulnerable.

The national booking service is available online here http://www.nhs.uk/covidvaccination or by calling 119.
