Can I book a Covid vaccine? How to get yourself on the list

The priority list was compiled by the UK’s Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI).

The JCVI decided on priority groups based on scientific research, taking into consideration people’s age, underlying health conditions, and whether they live or work in care homes.

People living in care homes and their carers were first on the priority list, while those over 80 years old are already in line for their first vaccine dose.

There are 10 priority groups in total, with ‘healthy’ individuals under 50 years old the last to receive the jab.
