Description

We have produced resources to help healthcare workers, vaccinators and school staff inform children and young people who are eligible for the vaccine, and their parents or carers.

What to expect at a COVID-19 vaccination appointment for children and young people

Public Health Scotland have created a video about what to expect at a COVID-19 vaccination appointment for:

  • children who turned 5 before 31 August 2022
  • young people up to the age of 15

This introduces the concept of COVID-19 vaccination in an engaging and reassuring way. 

It can be used by parents and carers to show their child or young person what to expect at their COVID-19 vaccination appointment.
