Vaccination is the most important thing you can do to protect your community against serious illnesses. When enough people get vaccinated, it’s harder for a disease to spread to those who can’t have vaccines.

We know many people are interested in the COVID-19 vaccination and want to assure you that we are working through a priority list set by the Department of Health. Please do not contact your GP about getting the vaccine. We will contact patients in order of priority.

Please be aware the vaccinations are expected to commence the week beginning 11th January starting will all those aged 80 years or older as of the 31 March 2021 ie. anyone born on or before the 31 March 1941.
