Councillor Jasbir Jaspal, the City of Wolverhampton Council’s Cabinet Member for Public Health and Wellbeing, said: “Covid-19 cases numbers remain very high – with well over 1,200 people in Wolverhampton testing positive in the last 7 days.
“The best thing you can do to keep yourself and others safe this winter is to make sure you have been vaccinated so, if you are eligible for your Covid-19 booster, or your first or second jab is now due, please come forward for it as soon as possible."
People aged 16 and over are eligible for a first and second dose of the vaccine. Anyone aged 18 and over can now get a booster 3 months, or 91 days, after their second dose. Booster appointments can be booked up to a month in advance.
Children aged 12 to 15 are eligible for 2 doses, the second 12 weeks after their first. They must be accompanied by a parent or guardian to vaccination appointments.
Latest figures show there were 470.5 new cases of Covid-19 per 100,000 people in Wolverhampton over the last 7 days. That means 1,237 people tested positive for the virus in that same period – though the true number of cases will likely be higher.
