COVID-19 Vaccines

Vaccinations against COVID-19 are currently taking place within Dumfries and Galloway in the form of scheduled clinic appointments and drop-ins.

Anyone aged 12 plus who has yet to make an appointment for a first COVID-19 vaccination, or who has yet to receive a second more than eight weeks from their first, is encouraged to contact the local helpline by calling 01387 403090 between 9 am and 5 pm, Monday to Friday. Alternatively, email dg.covidenquiries@nhs.scot

You can also register online by visiting www.nhsinform.scot/vaccineregistration

Transport support is also available, and details can be obtained by phoning 01387 403090 between 9 am and 5 pm, Monday to Friday. Alternatively, email dg.covidenquiries@nhs.scot

These contact details should also be employed by anyone requiring translation or interpretation services associated with COVID vaccination.

Details about the current status:

First dose vaccinations: Anyone eligible can still secure a first dose COVID-19 vaccination by calling the local helpline on 01387 403090 from 9am to 5pm Mon to Fri or emailing dg.covidenquiries@nhs.scot to arrange an appointment. First dose vaccinations should have now been offered to everyone in the eligible groups, including the youngest group, 12 to 15 years olds, via a schools-based programme.

Second dose vaccinations: Anyone who is now at least eight weeks since their first dose vaccination can book their second by calling the local helpline on 01387 403090 from 9am to 5pm Mon to Fri or emailing dg.covidenquiries@nhs.scot to arrange an appointment. Under 18s are currently being called to attend drop-in vaccination clinics for second doses, as scheduling is not possible for these age groups.

Third dose vaccinations: These have been provided to people who have weakened immune systems, with details on appointments provided by letter.

Booster vaccinations: Booster jags are being provided to those identified as being eligible, at least 12 weeks following their second. In line with the prioritisation of groupings set out by the JCVI, these have now been offered to all residents and staff at care homes in the region, subject to any local restrictions due to COVID. Boosters are also being provided to health and social care workers, and are currently being provided to people aged 18 plus, unpaid Carers and household contacts of the immune-suppressed. As part of Scotland-wide moves, no appointment letters are planned for these people. Instead, all those in these next eligible groups need to now take action themselves – visiting the new national online portal to pick a location and timeslot for their COVID booster and/or flu vaccination.
