Why do I need a booster?

Those most at risk of becoming seriously ill from COVID-19 are being offered a booster.

Viruses, like COVID-19, spread much more easily in winter, so it’s important that everyone eligible tops up their protection with a booster.

Can I have my flu vaccine and COVID-19 booster in the same appointment?

Yes, if you are eligible to have both vaccines, you may be offered both in the same appointment. It is safe to receive both vaccines at the same time.
