The dates for our Autumn 2024 Covid-19 & Flu clinics are below:

• Saturday 26 October

The clinics will run from 08:30 am - 12:30 pm at Kingsnorth Medical Practice.  Please ensure you arrive on time to your booked appointment.  

Please remove overlayers of clothing while queing if you are able to do so. Walk in patients will not be accepted - all patients must have a booked appointment.  If you are unwell, please ensure you rebook prior to the clinic. 

Free parking is provided at the Practice.  If you do not wish to have the Flu vaccine, please ensure to let the Practice know so we can update your medical record.

You will be invited, if eligible, in September time.

The RSV vaccine helps protect against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), a common virus that can make babies and older adults seriously ill. It's recommended during pregnancy (from 28 weeks onwards) to help protect your baby after they're born and for adults aged 75 to 79.

The RSV vaccine is given as an injection into your upper arm.

If you're pregnant, you should have the vaccine during every pregnancy. This will help make sure each baby is protected for the first 6 months after they're born, when they're most likely to get seriously ill if they get RSV.

Older adults only need 1 dose, which should protect them for several years.

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