<p>For those who are severely immunosuppressed, the third primary COVID-19 vaccine
dose is recorded as a booster vaccinations. A subsequent booster or fourth dose for
eligible severely immunosuppressed patients after a further three months will be recorded
as a second booster. Existing data systems support the recording of multiple boosters.
All doses administered appear in an individual’s vaccination history and are recorded
in the National Immunisation Management System and general practitioner record. An
assessment determined that retrospectively updating or amending patient records in
the immediate term could risk creating a data quality issue.</p>
