Eligible Residents Across Gwent Encouraged to Take Up Spring Covid 19 Booster and RSV Vaccinations

Two important vaccines are being offered this spring, and we want to make sure everyone who is eligible gets the protection they need.

• The COVID-19 spring vaccination is now being offered to adults aged 75+ and residents in care homes for older adults.
• The RSV vaccine, which is routinely offered to people when they turn 75, will also be offered to people aged 80+ and residents in care homes for older adults.
   

Getting vaccinated can reduce your risk of serious illness and hospitalisation from RSV and COVID-19: https://phw.nhs.wales/news/new-figures-show-rsv-vaccine-cuts-hospital-stays-as-offer-expands-to-over-80s-in-wales/
