Dear Parent/Carer,

 

NHS Wales will begin offering the COVID-19 vaccine to all children and young people aged 12 – 15 years. This was recommended by the UK’s Chief Medical Officers (CMOs) after reviewing evidence on the public health benefits of extending vaccination to younger people. They considered the mental health and long-term prospects for young people, and the impact on education.

Kind regards,
