Diabetes UK is urging people with diabetes across the South West to take up the coronavirus vaccine when offered it.

People with diabetes have been disproportionately affected by the pandemic and have a higher risk of becoming seriously ill if they develop coronavirus. If you have diabetes, the best way to protect yourself against coronavirus is to avoid contact with the virus and get vaccinated.

With all adults with diabetes now being offered the vaccine, it's incredibly important to take up your invitation – to help keep yourself, your family, and your community safe.

Diabetes UK is keen to stress that the vaccines being offered are safe and will save lives, but if you have any concerns or would like more information, call Diabetes UK's Helpline on 0345 123 2399 or visit diabetes.org.uk.
