	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/04/2022 answer text <p>The UK Health and Safety Laboratory conducted a small pilot study of a number of technologies used as ‘air purifiers’ as a preliminary indication of the potential for these systems to improve air quality. However, this pilot preceded the COVID-19 pandemic and therefore did not focus on airborne virus control.</p><p> </p><p>While the Scientific Advisory Group on Emergencies undertook a review of existing evidence on the application of UV disinfection, visible light, local air filtration and fumigation technologies to microbial control, it did not make an assessment of technologies supplied by companies. In our earlier answer to Question 496, we stated that Public Health England undertook an assessment of such technologies. However, this information was incorrect and we have amended the record by Written Ministerial Statement on 1 March 2022 <a href="https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fquestions-statements.parliament.uk%2Fwritten-statements%2Fdetail%2F2022-03-01%2Fhcws648&amp;data=04%7C01%7CDavid.Gosling%40dhsc.gov.uk%7C74ba698a24c74d6eab1b08da170bbcb6%7C61278c3091a84c318c1fef4de8973a1c%7C1%7C0%7C637847636423860232%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&amp;sdata=UbDXZQq48LESuf7K4DTkqM%2FURfdzBbX7bWN2KPcxy7w%3D&amp;reserved=0" target="_blank">HCWS648</a>.</p><p> </p><p>The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) accepts submissions from companies for technologies and associated credentials.

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/04/2022 answer text <p>The United Kingdom Health Security Agency observed limited waning in vaccine effectiveness against hospitalisation and death more than 20 weeks post-vaccination with Vaxzevria (AstraZeneca) or Comirnaty (Pfizer). This was less evident in younger adults not in a clinical risk group, suggesting that if such individuals were vaccinated early, they should still be protected for longer than older individuals.</p><p>The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation advised that booster vaccines should be offered to those more at risk from serious disease and who were vaccinated during phase one of the programme in priority groups one to nine. Younger, healthy individuals may be expected to generate stronger vaccine-induced immune responses from primary course vaccination compared to older individuals.</p> answering member constituency Erewash answering member printed Maggie Throup question first answered 28/04/2022 11:21:28 answering member 4447 label Biography information for Maggie Throup

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/04/2022 answer text <p>The Department has conducted adult social care recruitment marketing campaigns since 2019, unifying recruitment efforts across 17,700 care providers in the sector. However, as the Department is not the lead employer and there is no centralised recruitment data, we evaluate the campaigns through engagement with the recruitment website and the Department for Work and Pensions’ Find a Job resource, media reach and pre, mid and post campaign polling.</p><p>In 2020/21, we estimate that campaign activity generated 274,044 new users to the adult social care recruitment campaign website, of which 46.75% subsequently searched for jobs in adult social care in their local area. However, it should be noted that this represents those users who consented to tracking cookies. Historic campaign data prior to the implementation of the General Data Protection Regulation indicates that, we now record approximately 17% of the total number of individuals landing on the website. We therefore estimate that the actual number of users is higher. We are currently evaluating engagement from the most recent campaign between November 2021 to March 2022, with outcomes due at the end of May 2022.</p> answering member constituency Chichester answering member printed Gillian Keegan question first answered 26/04/2022 12:26:53 answering member 4680 label Biography information for Gillian Keegan previous answer version 33457 answering member constituency Chichester answering member printed Gillian Keegan answering member 4680 label Biography information for Gillian Keegan
