Eligibility for COVID vaccinations this autumn has changed, please see below for eligibility criteria and more information:
The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) has updated its advice for the autumn 2025 COVID-19 vaccination programme, which has been accepted by ministers. The focus of the programme is shifting towards targeted vaccination of those at highest risk of serious disease.
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.
