Covid-19 vaccine clinics in Gateshead and Newcastle

Friday 01 April 2022

The Covid-19 vaccines are safe and effective. They give you the best protection against Covid-19.

Everyone aged 12 and over, and some children aged 5 to 11, can get a 1st and 2nd dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.

People aged 16 and over, and some children aged 12 to 15, can also get a booster dose.

People aged 12 and over who had a severely weakened immune system when they had their first 2 doses, will be offered a 3rd dose and a booster (4th dose).

People aged 75 and over, people who live in care homes for older people, and people aged 12 and over who have a weakened immune system, will be offered a spring booster.

You can make your appointment on the NHS website or by calling 119 free of charge between 7am and 11pm, seven days a week.

Children aged 12 to 15

Most children aged 12 to 15 can get their vaccine at school. Vaccines will only be given to children when the parent has given full written consent.

If you have any concerns about the vaccination programme you should discuss this with your child’s school or your GP. 

You can also book a vaccine appointment online, or visit a walk-in site where available.
