BCG Vaccination

We do not provide the BCG vaccination at the Surgery.

For more information about the BCG Tuberculosis vaccine, please see the NHS webpages on the BCG vaccine.

Eligibility criteria

Aged between 0 days and 12 months old, living in Greenwich and have a parent or grandparent born in a country where the annual incidence of TB is 40 in 100,000 or greater (see TB rates by country).

Babies only need to have one BCG vaccination. Some maternity hospitals offer the BCG vaccination before 28 days, so please check whether the baby has received a BCG before your baby is referred to the BCG community service.
