CIRC 013: COVID VACCINE FOR CLINICALLY EXTREMELY VULNERABLE

The TUC have sent out to all affiliated Trade Unions information on how colleagues and their families who come under the CEV category can access the vaccine as it appears not to have been widely communicated.

Anyone who is Clinically Extremely Vulnerable can book their Covid vaccine appointments at the below link. It does not require a letter; they just need their NHS number (it appears at the top of their shielding letter from the DHSC).

The NEC would be grateful to Branch Officials to ensure this circular is brought to the attention of our members for their information.

 

Yours sincerely
