People aged 50 and over in England will be offered another Covid booster and a flu shot from September in an effort to substantially reduce hospitalisations and deaths from the infections over the winter.
Another round of Covid boosters will also be available for staff and residents of care homes for older people, frontline health and social care workers, adult carers, household contacts of people with weakened immune systems, and those at clinical risk, including pregnant women.
