Eligible residents still have time to book their free spring Covid vaccination before the programme closes at the end of June.
Almost 150,000 vaccinations have been given across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight since the campaign launched on April 13, with 49 per cent of eligible people now vaccinated.
The spring vaccine is being offered to people aged 75 and over, care home residents, and adults and children with a weakened immune system.
People do not need to wait for an invitation from their GP practice; instead you can book through the NHS App, the National Booking System, or by calling 119 until June 30.
Anyone unsure whether they are eligible, or who needs help booking, can call the NHS Hampshire & Isle of Wight Covid vaccination helpline on 0300 561 0018, Monday to Friday, 9am to 4pm.
