COVID-19 and flu vaccinations

NHS Scotland will contact you in Spring 2026  if you’re eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine.

It’s important to take up the offer of a vaccine every time you’re offered one. Even if your health is well managed, you’re still at risk.

For more information about vaccines, please visit the NHS Inform vaccine page.  Please wait to be contacted with the details of your appointment, or instructions on how to book a vaccination through the vaccine portal.
