PNEUMOCCOCAL

Pneumococcal Immunisation for all patients aged 65 and over and any patients who suffer from diseases of the lung, heart, liver, kidney, have diabetes, are immunosuppressed or have a cochlear implant. Invasive pneumococcal disease (pneumonia) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality, especially among the very young and elderly population. This is a one-off single injection given subcutaneously or intramuscularly into the arm.

 

HPV

The HPV vaccine used in the NHS programme protects against nine high-risk types of HPV which can cause 99%* of cervical cancers. The NHS has an ambition to eliminate cervical cancer by 2040. To meet this target, we encourage that everyone, both men and women are vaccinated against HPV.
 
School children (usually aged 12 and 13) are given the HPV vaccine through the school immunisation programme. If your child misses their HPV vaccine at school, they can catch up with the vaccine through their school or GP practice and remain eligible to receive it until they turn 25.
