Nov 5,2021 1:07 pm

People living in England will be able to book their coronavirus booster jabs a month in advance under government plans to speed up their rollout.

from 95% three months after getting The Second doses of Oxford/AstraZeneca to 75% after six monthsfrom 99% three months after getting The Second doses of Pfizer/BioNTech to 90% after six months.

So Far , some nine million people in the whole of the UK have been given a third top-up jab to prolong immunity.

In England, people Can also book jabs by calling 119 or by going to walk-in sites across the country, without an appointment, six months after their second dose.

Recent changes to guidelines mean those at highest Risk - including people in care homes - Can already receive their boosters slightly earlier -

Rules about who is eligible for a booster are the same throughout the UK.

In, people will be able to book boosters online from later this month. In and people will be invited to book an appointment and for Most People this will happen at least six months after their second jabs.
