Covid-19 vaccinations for clinically-vulnerable five to 11-year-olds.
Re: Covid-19 vaccinations for clinically-vulnerable five to 11-year-olds.
The NHS in Kent and Medway is now offering the Covid-19 vaccine to eligible children aged five to 11-years-old who:
- are at higher risk from coronavirus due to underlying health conditions or
- share living accommodation, on most days, with someone who has a weakened immune system
You can find more information about this here:
COVID-19 vaccinations: A guide for parents of children aged 5-11 at high risk.
If they have an eligible child, parents will be invited to bring them to have the vaccine by their GP practice, a local vaccination service linked to their GP practice, or the NHS School-Aged Immunisation Service (SAIS).
Parents can either book an appointment directly with their GP, or use this link to book in with any provider: https://lvs.healthit.org.uk/patheks. Eligibility will be checked at the venue.
Please can you forward this email to all your parents so they can book an appointment if their child is eligible.
Thank you for your support
Kind regards
NHS Kent and Medway
