I got a letter, email or text message calling me up for a coronavirus vaccination. Is that possible?
No, that is not possible. No one is getting a letter, email or text message calling them up for a coronavirus vaccination at the moment. Have you been referred by your doctor? Then you will still not be called up by letter, email or text message. You can call to make a coronavirus vaccination appointment. Have you made an appointment? You will only get an email to confirm the appointment if you have done that. You will get a text message with a reminder 48 hours before the vaccination appointment.
Please note: The coronavirus vaccination at the GGD is always free. You do not have to pay. Does the email or text message talk about paying? Or does it say you have to click on a banking website? Then do not click on anything! And throw away the email or text at once. The email or text is definitely not from the GGD. It is from someone who is trying to steal money from you.
