COVID-19 Vaccinations:
Protect Yourself and Others
The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted people worldwide, and getting vaccinated is one of the most effective ways to protect yourself, your loved ones, and the wider community. At Pharma Centric, we aim to provide you with the latest information on COVID-19 vaccinations, following NHS guidelines to ensure your safety.
Why is the COVID-19 Vaccine Important?
The COVID-19 vaccine helps protect you from serious illness caused by the virus. Vaccination is proven to significantly reduce the risk of hospitalisation and death, even if you do contract COVID-19. Additionally, getting vaccinated helps to reduce the spread of the virus, ultimately protecting the most vulnerable members of society, such as the elderly and those with underlying health conditions.
The NHS recommends that everyone who is eligible should get vaccinated. This includes individuals over the age of 12 and those who have not yet received their first dose, as well as those eligible for booster doses.
How the Vaccine Works
The COVID-19 vaccine stimulates your body’s immune system to recognise and fight the virus. After vaccination, your body will develop immunity, which helps you to defend against the virus if you are exposed. The vaccine may not completely prevent infection, but it greatly reduces the risk of severe illness, hospitalisation, and death.
The most common side effects are mild, including a sore arm, tiredness, or a headache, and they typically go away within a few days. These side effects are a sign that the vaccine is working and your body is building protection.
Where Can I Get the COVID-19 Vaccine?
At Pharma Centric, we are offering the COVID-19 vaccine in accordance with NHS guidelines. You can book your appointment online or visit us directly. Our team of trained professionals will ensure that the process is quick and smooth, helping you to stay safe and protected.
Booster Doses
