Closed Prioritise people eligible for free flu vaccines for any Covid booster vaccine

Closed on

SARS-CoV-2 is a far more dangerous virus than Influenza but we all need to be able to live with it in years to come. It is therefore imperative that ALL vulnerable people receive ongoing protection against the virus.

We believe using the existing flu vaccination eligibility list to prioritise access to Covid-19 booster vaccines will be:

SIMPLE & TIME-SAVING – Uses existing NHS protocol, making GPs and health professionals' lives much easier.
SAFE – Well-established, widely-acknowledged medical list.
CLEAR – Everyone knows if they’re already on the list, so there’s no confusion.
EFFECTIVE – Includes all vulnerable people at increased risk of the effects of Covid-19: no-one falls through the gaps.
