Vaccination
Vaccines are the best defence we have against respiratory infections such as Covid-19 and flu.
They provide good protection against hospitalisation and death. They also reduce the risk of long-term symptoms.
The Covid-19 vaccines are safe and effective and vaccine programmes are continuously monitored.
You can find the latest vaccination information on the Healthier Together website.
Healthier Together is the name of the integrated care system in Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire (BNSSG).
It is made up of 10 partner organisations: the 3 local authorities of Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire, the NHS Hospital Trusts, the new Integrated Care Board and community and general practice providers.
Beware of vaccine scams. You will never be asked personal information or for payment as part of any NHS Covid vaccination programme.
