For autumn 2025, COVID-19 vaccination will be offered to:
- adults aged 75 years and over
- residents in care homes for older adults
- individuals who are immunosuppressed aged 6 months and over
This represents a change from the autumn 2024 programme, which also included adults aged 65 to 74 and all those aged 6 months and over in a clinical risk group.
The vaccine should usually be offered no earlier than around 6 months after the last vaccine dose. Eligible patients can get protection from an autumn COVID-19 vaccination even if they have not taken up a COVID-19 vaccine offer in the past.
Immunosuppression eligibility is detailed on Pg24 of the green book, however, can be based on clinical judgement.
