NHS England will issue RSV invitations in February 2025 to eligible patients to support uptake. NHS England will email patients with a registered email address and will also attempt to contact people through the NHS App. If the app message is not delivered or read within 24 hours, a text message will be sent. A letter will be sent to people without a registered mobile number.
Invitations will be sent to:
- Individuals in the older adult catch up cohort (defined as those aged 75- 79 on 31 August 2024) who have not yet been vaccinated.
- Individuals who have turned 75 since 1 September 2024 who have not yet been vaccinated.
The invitation will ask patients to contact their GP to book an appointment. Practices should also continue to recall eligible patients.
