Eligible people can get vaccinated to protect themselves from becoming seriously unwell from the effects of the viruses particularly during the colder winter months when they spread at a faster rate.

Health leaders in Northamptonshire are urging all residents to get their free vaccinations if they meet the eligibility criteria to protect them and those that are most vulnerable in the community.

Flu vaccinations

The eligible cohorts for the flu vaccination this autumn / winter includes:

anyone aged 65 or over (including those who will be 65 by 31 March 2027)
anyone aged 18 to 64 and have certain long-term health conditions
pregnant women at any stage of their pregnancy
anyone that lives in a care home for older adults
the main carer for an older or disabled person, or anyone who receives a carer's allowance
anyone that lives with someone who has a weakened immune system
those experiencing homelessness or staying in a homeless hostel or night shelter
frontline health and social care workers who can get a flu vaccine through their employer

Covid-19 vaccinations

The eligible cohorts for the Covid-19 vaccination this autumn / winter includes:

those aged 75 or over (including those who will be 75 by 31 January 2027)
anyone aged 6 months to 74 years and have a weakened immune system because of a health condition or treatment
those that live in a care home for older adults

Pregnant women and children have been able to get the flu vaccine since 1 September 2026. Health leaders are also urging all pregnant women particularly those that are due to give birth this winter to protect their babies by having their whooping cough and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccines when eligible as both of these viruses can be particularly harmful to newborn babies. Having these vaccines during pregnancy gives your baby some protection when they are born.
