registered with a GP, they will still be able to receive the vaccine under the GP
COVID-19 vaccination programme 2020/21 Enhanced Service Specification. More information

approach to ensure we are reaching as many people as possible.</p><p>A condition of
No Recourse of Public Funds does not have a bearing on a person’s access to healthcare
or the COVID-19 vaccine.</p><p>In light of the availability of the COVID-19 vaccination
for all UK residents, including those who are undocumented, we have no plans to grant
immigration leave for this purpose.</p>
