COVID-19 & Flu Vaccines 2024

The COVID-19 and flu vaccine autumn/winter campaign 2024 will begin on 3rd October 2024. 

This may be later than you have had the vaccines before, but it means you’ll have the best protection when COVID-19 and flu is most widespread.

Please see our COVID-19 & Flu Vaccinations page for more information.

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) Vaccine

The RSV vaccine helps protect against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). RSV is a common cause of coughs and colds. Most people get it several times during their life.

It usually gets better by itself, but in some people (especially babies and older adults) it can cause illnesses such as:

• pneumonia (a lung infection)
• bronchiolitis (a chest infection that affects babies)

These illnesses can cause serious breathing problems. They may need to be treated in hospital and can be life-threatening.
