Lifesaving spring COVID-19 jab offers protection to vulnerable people in Haringey
Appointments are now available in Haringey every day at GP practices and community pharmacies for people aged 75 and over, older people in care homes and people who are immunosuppressed.
COVID-19 spreads easily all year round and can be very dangerous and even life threatening for vulnerable groups.
Protection from a previous vaccination can fade over time and the circulating strain of the virus can change, so if you are at higher risk of severe illness, it is important to top up your protection and prevent potential hospital admission.
On Thursday 16 April 2026, as part of the COVID-19 Inquiry, a report by Baroness Hallett cited 1 study which estimated that by March 2023, COVID-19 vaccines had saved the lives of 475,000 people in England and Scotland.
People who are eligible for their spring COVID-19 vaccination will be invited to come forward by the NHS, but you do not need to wait for this to book if you’re eligible.
You can download the NHS App and make an appointment, book online, visit a walk-in site or call 119 for free if you can’t get online.
