RSV Vaccine

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a common cause of coughs and colds. It usually gets better by itself, but it can be serious for some babies and older adults.

A vaccine to help protect against RSV will be available on the NHS from 1 September 2024.

You'll be able to get the vaccine if:

  • you're aged 75 to 79
  • you're 28 weeks pregnant or more – this will help protect your baby for the first few months after they're born

We will be contacting all patients aged 79-75 and ladies from week 28 of pregnancy in the next few weeks to offer an appointment. Please wait to be contacted.
