Texts will be sent out on Monday to those who are eligible for a third coronavirus vaccine dose later in the week, NHS England says.
Dr Nikki Kanani, GP and deputy lead for the COVID vaccination programme, said:"The NHS COVID vaccination programme has already prevented 24 million cases and saved more than 112,000 lives.
"As we head into winter we should not drop our guard so I would urge everyone to come forward and get a booster vaccination when they are invited. "Getting a top-up vaccine is the best way to protect yourself and your loved ones from this cruel virus.", and those who cannot go online can instead call 119.Meanwhile, local health teams will prioritise care home residents and staff who are eligible and offer a booster jab by the beginning of November.
