Flu Season 2020

Dear Patients

The government has extended it’s flu vaccination programme to include 50-64 year old patients, wanting to begin vaccinations from November 2020 after prioritising shielded patients, at risk health groups and over 65’s; however this depends on national supplies. We currently do not hold stock to be able to provide this service and have no order process from government stores as of yet. Further information should become available in November on how the government plans to supply the vaccination and we will then contact you personally if you are eligible. In the meantime we kindly ask that you do not contact the surgery to try to book a vaccination. We will communicate with you when we have stock and are able to provide this additional service.

We do have reserved stock for the prioritised population as mentioned above and will begin inviting patients in when stock arrives in October, with increased social distancing measures in place due to Covid guidelines. We will be contacting these patients who are eligible. 

Many thanks
