British TV presenter Dr Dr Ranj Singh has lent his support to Age UK, encouraging older people to receive COVID-19 boosters and flu vaccinations.
The NHS is advising everyone over 50 to get both jabs this autumn and Singh commented 'I would still encourage all older people to get both their COVID-19 and flu vaccine booster, as soon as they can. Both those vaccinations need topping up to be most effective, especially as we move into autumn and winter and viruses start to thrive again - being vaccinated helps prevent hospitalisation and serious illnesses, which is why I am supporting Age UK in their call for all older people to have both vaccinations when they are called, messaged or written to by the NHS'.
