Prepare for your vaccination
- Bring some form of ID with you when you’re going to be vaccinated. This could be, for example, an ID card, driver's license or passport.
- Try to wear clothes with short sleeves. This makes it easier for the nurse to give you the syringe in your arm.
- Arrive at the vaccination unit at the time that’s been booked for you. Don’t come too early. There might be a queue, and if so, that increases the risk of spreading Covid-19.
- You receive the vaccine by an injection in one arm.
- Stay at the unit for 15 minutes afterwards. The staff will then see how you feel after the vaccination.
