Covid: Nottingham Hospitals update – deaths, admissions and bed occupancy numbers this week

Nottingham and Nottinghamshire CCG release their latest weekly Covid-19 figures.

NHS bosses are encouraging the public to make sure they are protected ahead of the summer period by making sure they have had their Covid-19 vaccinations.

Over 75s and those aged over 12 with a severe illness are eligible for a spring booster and are being invited by the NHS to come forward and book a vaccination. Those who are eligible can book or walk in for a jab between 3 and 6 months from their previous dose.

Parents and guardians are being encouraged to book their 5-11s in for a vaccine to make sure they are protected, and it is easier than ever as parents and guardians can either book or walk into the specialist clinics. 5-11 clinics are available at:

• Forest Recreation Ground Vaccination Centre (Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday 2-30-7.30)
