Vaccination programme
We encourage all colleagues to take the vaccination, in order to protect themselves and others.
NHS is progressing well with the vaccination roll-out. It started with priority groups which includes care home colleagues, people on the NHS frontline, and long-stay NHS patients over 80.
You no longer need to book or wait for an appointment for your first or second COVID-19 vaccination. NHS drop-in clinics are now available in all mass vaccination centres as well as in various community locations.
As well as the larger centres, look out for the vaccination buses and pop-up clinics around Edinburgh and Lothians.
You can find more information about the vaccine and the public vaccination programme on NHS Inform, and at the NHS Lothian vaccination clinic web pages.
Scottish Government's website has information about the strategy and decision-making around the vaccination programme.
