answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/02/2021 answer text <p>There are no plans to introduce vaccine certification following this vaccination programme. As with other vaccination programmes, when patients are vaccinated, they are likely to receive a vaccine record card that notes the date of their vaccination, the suggested date for their second dose and details of the vaccine type and batch. This is a vaccine record card, similar to those given to patients for other NHS vaccinations as a note of when they received their vaccine. It is not intended to be used for any other purpose, or as an immunity certificate. All vaccinations are recorded on the patient’s record with their GP.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 04/02/2021 15:47:05 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi
