Booster jabs in Bristol: Am I eligible and where can I get one?

Following news that people across England can now receive their third ‘booster’ coronavirus vaccine at walk-in centres up and down the country, we take a look at where people in Bristol can get a booster jab.

Who can get a COVID-19 booster vaccine

The NHS outlines on their website who is eligible to get one of the booster vaccines.

A spokesperson said: “Booster vaccine doses will be available on the NHS for people most at risk from COVID-19 who have had a 2nd dose of a vaccine at least 6 months ago.”

This includes:

• people aged 50 and over
• people who live and work in care homes
• frontline health and social care workers
• people aged 16 and over with a health condition that puts them at high risk of getting seriously ill from COVID-19
• people aged 16 and over who are a main carer for someone at high risk from COVID-19
• people aged 16 and over who live with someone who is more likely to get infections (such as someone who has HIV, has had a transplant or is having certain treatments for cancer, lupus or rheumatoid arthritis)

People who are pregnant and in 1 of the eligible groups can also get a booster dose.
