This year’s autumn flu and COVID-19 vaccine programmes will start earlier than planned in England as a precautionary measure following the identification of a new COVID-19 variant.
This week, the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JVCI) announced details of the autumn COVID-19 booster programme.
The NHS website lists the current symptoms and has advice for people who may have them. It also has advice for people who test positive, although you are no longer required to do a COVID-19 rapid lateral flow test if you have symptoms.
