He was 44 years old and playing 5-a-side football in a local sports centre when he collapsed without warning. Thank goodness it happened there of all places however, as the swift actions of his team

Spring Covid booster
Have had text from my surgery offering me a Spring Booster for Covid. Have been on 4.5mg Prednisolone for a couple of months now. Would my immune system still be classed as compromised on such a low dose?

hi Does anyone know if partners / carers of clinically extremely vulnerable people are eligible for the Covid boosters in April. I am under 75 years of age. I am “happy” to have it done privately at a cost of £100 approx but would need to travel some distance at the moment. Thanks for any advice
