Margaret Jones, Sefton Council Director of Public Health

People in Sefton are being urged to book their Covid-19 booster jab. 

Margaret Jones, Sefton Council’s Director of Public Health, is urging residents across the borough to book their vaccination if they are eligible for it in the next month.

Latest figures show Sefton has a current Covid-19 rate of 432.8 cases per 100,000 in the seven days to 3rd November, an increase of 8.3% on the previous week. 

Booster jabs are available to people who have had their first and second Covid-19 vaccinations from six months after the date of their second jab.

Anyone who has had their first and second vaccinations and is within a month of being eligible for their booster jab can now book their appointment at www.nhs.uk/coronavirus-vaccination or by calling 119.

Anyone who had their second vaccination six months ago or longer, can also use the www.NHS.uk or call 119 to find a walk-in coronavirus vaccination site where they can get a booster jab.

Margaret Jones said:

“While first and second vaccinations are still providing people with good levels of protection from the virus, a booster dose can give people longer-term protection against getting seriously ill from Covid-19.

“Most people will be offered a booster dose of the Pfizer/BioNTech or Moderna vaccine, which may be different from their previous jabs, but they remain safe and effective.”

Mrs Jones also urged anyone who has yet to get their first or second jab, to do so as soon as possible. She said:

“The NHS reporting is seeing 14 times as many Covid patients as this time last year and warning that the number of young people being admitted to hospital for Covid is on the rise.

“Vaccination is still the best protection against coronavirus whatever your age and I would urge anyone eligible to get their first or second jab to get them as soon as possible. Just visit www.nhs.uk/coronavirus-vaccination or call 119 today.”
