Spring COVID-19 vaccination programme reaches 148,000 people in first four weeks
Four weeks on from the start of the spring COVID-19 vaccination programme, more than 148,000 people across Surrey and Sussex have already received their vaccine (as of 6 May 2026).
The NHS is continuing to encourage those eligible to come forward for their spring dose to help boost protection against serious illness caused by COVID-19. This includes:
- adults aged 75 and over
- residents in care homes for older adults
- people aged six months and over who are immunosuppressed.
Protection from previous vaccinations can reduce over time, and the spring vaccine helps provide important protection for those most at risk.
Eligible people can still book an appointment through the NHS National Booking System or attend participating walk-in services (information available on our Covid-19 vaccinations page).
