Booster programmes
The Vaccination Centre at the Queens Hall, Fort Regent is open for the Autumn Booster campaign. Eligible Islanders can receive their annual free flu vaccine at the same time.
Autumn Booster 2023
In line with the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI), islanders eligible for a booster vaccination this autumn are:
- residents in a care home for older adults
- all adults aged 65 years and over
- persons aged 6 months to 64 years in a clinical risk group, as defined in tables 3 and 4 of the COVID-19 chapter of the Green Book
- health and social care workers
- persons aged 12 to 64 years who are household contacts, of people with immunosuppression as defined in the Green Book,
- persons aged 16 to 64 years who are carers, as defined in the Green Book

Eligible Islanders are invited to receive their autumn booster to ensure they are best protected over the winter months. Influenza (flu) vaccine will also be offered to be co-administered to the above eligible groups from 18 years at Fort Regent. This cannot be booked in advance but will be offered by the Vaccinator at the same time as administering the Covid-19 vaccine.
