The number of confirmed cases of Covid-19 in our city came down this week for the first time this summer. But almost one in two adults in Brighton & Hove are not yet fully vaccinated with two doses.
New payments and support available from the council for people who have to self-isolate.
Nicola Rosenberg, Public Health Consultant, explains why more people in our city need to take up the vaccination offer and what we can all do to protect each other with confirmed case rates rising so steeply.
You can get your first and (after eight weeks) your second vaccinations from 8.30am to 7pm at the Brighton Centre this week, with plenty of other walk-in venues around the city every day too. No need to book, just roll up and get your jab.
The Directors of Public Health across Sussex have issued a joint statement in response to the lifting of Covid-19 restrictions on Monday 19 July.
Restrictions are being lifted on Monday but the pandemic is not over yet. Public Health Consultant Dr Katie Cuming explains why it’s important we all continue to remain cautious and act responsibly to stop the virus spreading out of control in our city.
Due to the high numbers of people with Covid, extra government support is being put in place that will build on the work we’ve all been doing to keep our city open and safe.
We are sorry to announce that there has been a change to vaccination services in the city today (Sunday 11 July).
With the continued rise in cases, our Director of Public Health, Alistair Hill, is asking us all to get our first vaccinations now and our second after eight weeks to help keep Brighton & Hove safe.
