The first dosage of the Covid-19 jab is now going to be offered to both 16 and 17 year-olds who are in the UK. Sajid Javid, who is the secretary for health and social care has stated that he’s accepted the recommendation from the body and he has also asked the NHS to see if they can try and vaccinate those who are now eligible. He’s said that he wants to do this with those who have no underlying risk conditions. The news has been announced and it will certainly be involving those who work as a nursing recruitment agency as well as those who are in a nurse agency right now. They will most likely be working with doctors to make sure that people who are eligible, are given the jab.

They have stated that those who are healthy are going to be given a first dose of the jab, and a second one is going to be given sometime later. He’s said also that there is going to be a second jab in the future. Of course, the exact date for the second jab has not been announced yet, but as the data is accumulated, it’s said that more and more people will be given information. Of course, existing guidance states that those who are at a higher risk when it comes to Covid-19 will have been offered a jab already, and that is why they are not part of this programme right now.

If you have not had your jab yet and you would like to get one then you should know that it’s very easy for you to get booked in on the NHS website. It’s a very convenient process and suited to anyone who wants to try and protect themselves.
