Take up the offer of a Covid booster vaccine, amid signs of a possible autumn wave
Public Health Wales is urging people in eligible groups to take up the offer of a Covid-19 booster vaccine. The alert comes as community transmission, hospitalisations and deaths from Covid-19 have increased in recent weeks – early signs of a possible autumn wave.
Pregnant women, people aged 50+, those with a long-term health condition, and frontline health and social care workers are among those who are eligible for the free, safe and effective Covid-19 vaccine.
It’s important that those people who are eligible look out for their vaccine invitation. It will be sent to them by post from their local health board. They are strongly advised to take up the offer, and prioritise their appointment where possible.
