If any of those users later test positive for COVID-19, close contacts will receive an exposure alert with advice to self-isolate.</p><p>When a user first registers for the app they are asked for the first half of their postcode. They can check the app every day to see if where they live has become a high-risk area for COVID-19. If it has, they will also receive a notification. This will help them make daily decisions to protect themselves and those close to them.</p><p>The app was launched following positive trials and rigorous testing. It is accurate, responsive and has received positive feedback from users. We continue to work to optimise the app and will keep further improvements under review.</p> answering member constituency Faversham and Mid Kent answering member printed Helen Whately question first answered 16/10/2020 09:07:09 answering member 4527 label Biography information for Helen Whately previous answer version 53704 answering member constituency Mid Bedfordshire answering member printed Ms Nadine Dorries answering member 1481 label Biography information for Ms Nadine Dorries

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/10/2020 answer text <p>The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) are the independent experts who advise Government on prioritisation at a population level. Based on scientific analysis and modelling data, the JCVI will advise on which cohorts of the United Kingdom’s population will be eligible for vaccination, should a safe and effective vaccine be found. This will depend on factors such as the properties of the vaccine, those most at need (including frontline health and social care workers) and the unique medical circumstances of individuals.</p><p>The committee’s interim advice is that the vaccine should first be given to care home residents and staff, followed by people over 80 and health and social workers, then to the rest of the population in order of age and risk. Further work is being undertaken to understand more about the groups most at risk of serious disease and death from COVID-19 infection. Any advice will need to be modified depending on the characteristics of the vaccines, when these become available.</p><p>We will consider the Committee’s advice carefully as we continue to plan for a vaccination campaign.</p> answering member constituency Bury St Edmunds answering member printed Jo Churchill question first answered 22/10/2020 09:46:29 answering member 4380 label Biography information for Jo Churchill previous answer version 53719 answering member constituency Mid Bedfordshire answering member printed Ms Nadine Dorries answering member 1481 label Biography information for Ms Nadine Dorries
