The leader of Kingston Council has given an update on vaccine uptake in the borough.
Here are the key points from Councillor Caroline Kerr's (Liberal Democrat, Canbury) video message:
- If you are over 65 you do not have to wait to be called by the NHS to get you vaccine, you can book an appointment.
- This also applies to frontline health care workers, social care workers and anyone over 16 who is clinically vulnerable.
- You do not need an NHS number or even be registered with a GP to book.
- You can book a vaccine by clicking HERE
- Nearly 90% of Kingston residents who have been offered the vaccine have taken it.
- Cllr Kerr also urged those eligible who have not been vaccinated yet to get the jab.
