Covid vaccinations

Covid vaccinations are now available to book via the national booking site or by telephoning 119. Musgrove Park is listed as Stour PCN.

A vaccine to help protect against RSV will be available on the NHS from 1 September 2024.

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a common cause of coughs and colds. It usually gets better by itself, but it can be serious for some babies and older adults.

You'll be able to get the vaccine if:

• you're aged 75 to 79
• you're 28 weeks pregnant or more – this will help protect your baby for the first few months after they're born

If you're eligible to receive this vaccine your GP surgery will contact you about getting vaccinated. Please wait to be contacted.
