On February 8 the government announced if you are aged 70 or over or are in the clinically extremely vulnerable (CEV) category and have not yet been offered your first dose of the vaccine then you can now contact the NHS to get it.

You can book an appointment by visiting www.nhs.uk/covid-vaccination or those unable to get online can call 119.

If you are not in one of the these groups you should wait to be contacted.

When it is your turn to be vaccinated, and if you are registered with a GP in Oldham, you will be contacted directly from your practice or an NHS representative.
