New COVID-19 vaccination advice from Bolton's NHS
Wondering what to expect from your COVID-19 vaccination? The CCG's booklet answers some commonly-asked questions and is attached below.
 
Copies are also due to be delivered to every household very soon – so look out for your paper copy.
 
Translated versions will follow in a future edition of this newsletter and the text from the booklet is also on the Bolton CCG website (www.boltonccg.nhs.uk/patient-zone/coronavirus).
 
The NHS health publications website (www.healthpublications.gov.uk/ArticleSearch.html) has a range of booklets in English and other languages about the COVID-19 vaccination which can be downloaded for free. Titles include:
  • Why do I have to wait for my Covid-19 vaccination?
  • What to expect after your Covid-19 vaccination.
  • A guide for older adults
  • A guide for childbearing women
 
Along with the vaccination leaflet, the Bolton CCG YouTube channel has videos of GPs explaining why it’s important that people take up the offer to have the COVID-19 vaccination. Click here to visit the Bolton CCG YouTube channel and hear what local GPs had to say on the vaccine.
