Easy read coronavirus post-vaccination guide

5 easy read leaflets titled ‘About the coronavirus vaccine’, from the Science Museum NHS COVID-19 vaccination centre, 2021

Having independent access to public health information is always important, but particularly during a situation that is as changeable as a pandemic. The Equalities Act 2010 states that providing a variety of alternative accessible formats for leaflets and posters is a reasonable adjustment that institutions like the UK Health Security Agency can provide for disabled people. Easy read and simple text leaflets are designed to be accessible for people who have difficulty with reading in English. Information is conveyed mostly through pictures and very simple language.

The leaflet gives information on what the coronavirus vaccine is, what the possible side effects are and what help is available.

After weeks of careful planning and installation, the NHS COVID-19 Vaccination Centre at the Science Museum first welcomed people to receive their COVID-19 vaccine on 11 March 2021. Run by NHS staff and volunteers, the clinic delivered over 122,000 doses to people over the course of a year. People had to pre-book their appointments when invited by the NHS. When the clinic first opened, the museum was closed to visitors but reopened on 19 May 2021 for five days a week.
