NHS BORDERS are running two drop-in clinics this week for anyone eligible to receive a Spring Covid-19 booster.
The following groups are eligible: Adults aged 75+ (or who will turn 75 by 30 June 2023), Care home residents and People aged 5-74 with a weakened immune system.
Additionally, those who have not yet received their primary (first or second) doses of the Covid-19 vaccine, can do so at these clinics.

The offer of primary doses will end on June 30 2023 for 5 to 49 year olds with no underlying health conditions that put them at greater risk of Covid-19.
This is in line with the close of the spring booster programme. After June 30 2023, you will no longer be eligible for any Covid-19 vaccines.
