Does having Parkinson’s mean we are in the clinical vulnerable group anyone?

Hi @Skinzo81,

To answer your question, yes.

Group 6 contains over 7 million people, each with their own personal risk factors which increase their chance of serious illness if they were to get coronavirus. Risk factors include conditions like Parkinson’s or diabetes, but also your age, ethnicity and weight. We have more information on this via the Parkinson’s UK website which can be found here: https://www.parkinsons.org.uk/news/coronavirus-vaccine-and-parkinsons

If you need to speak to someone about this in more detail, please feel free to get in contact with our free and confidential helpline on 0808 800 0303.

Best wishes,
Reah
