Government guidance for people who have been identified as ‘clinically extremely vulnerable’ was updated on 7th January. Please click here to access it. Letters are being sent to everyone in this group.
You are advised not to go to the shops and strongly advised not to go to a pharmacy and to register for additional support. The clinically extremely vulnerable will get priority access to vaccination against COVID-19 before the general population and in line with the priority ordering set by the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI). You will be contacted again by the NHS with more information on when and how you will be invited to get the vaccine.
COVID-19 case numbers are now very high and rising rapidly across the country, driven by the new variant of COVID-19. Everyone in England, including those who are clinically extremely vulnerable, is required to follow the new national Stay at Home lockdown guidance.
