Lincolnshire coronavirus vaccine programme

The coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccine is our best defence against the virus and has been developed and approved following a number of clinical trials involving thousands of people across the world. The vaccine is given by injection into the arm or shoulder and you will need two doses to gain the maximum protection. A COVID-19 booster vaccine dose will also be given 6 months after your first vaccination to help improve the protection you have from your first 2 doses of the vaccine.

Having the vaccine means you are helping to protect yourself and those around you. In Lincolnshire, we are making great progress as the vaccine continues to be rolled out across the county to the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) priority groups.

You can book directly on the NHS Booking Website or visit the vaccination sites at Boston and Lincoln for the drop-in service.

Of course, even though the COVID-19 vaccine is our best defence against the virus, it’s important to still follow the Government guidance on social distancing, wearing a mask and washing your hands.
