answer text <p>The NHS COVID Pass shows an individual’s COVID-19 vaccination details or test results to manage the risk of transmission and provide additional reassurance that events organisers are taking measures to reduce these risks. The evidence shows that use of the Pass does reduce transmission at large events as the vaccines are effective at preventing infection. There is also further evidence that should vaccinated individuals become infected there is a reduced risk of transmission to others of approximately 40 to 45% after one dose.</p> more like this

answer text <p>A negative COVID-19 test is an acceptable proof of COVID status when entering large events. COVID status can be demonstrated through the NHS COVID Pass which can be accessed through the NHS App, the NHS website, or as a letter that can be requested by ringing 119. To get a pass, individuals either need to be fully vaccinated with a COVID-19 vaccine used in the United Kingdom; have evidence of a negative polymerase chain reaction test (PCR) or lateral flow test taken within the past 48 hours; or provide proof of a positive PCR within the last 180 days and following completion of the self-isolation period. Customers should also be able to show text or email confirmation of test results. The Government continues to keep these requirements under review.</p> more like this

answer text <p>A COVID-19 vaccine app which allows vaccine appointments to be booked in the United Kingdom does not exist. COVID-19 vaccinations can be booked via the National Booking System which can be accessed online or by calling 119, or alternatively, by booking through an individual’s General Practice. On 12 August 2021, SMS messages were sent to all individuals aged over 17 years and 9 months inviting them to book their COVID-19 vaccination appointment.</p> more like this

answer text <p>We are working urgently with international partners to ensure that British citizens vaccinated abroad with a United Kingdom (UK) recognised vaccine are able to demonstrate their vaccine status through the NHS COVID Pass. Work is ongoing to determine which non-United Kingdom vaccines, and certification solutions, could be recognised in this country for both international travel and for attending events and venues in the UK where individuals may be asked for proof of their COVID-19 status.</p> more like this

answer text <p>Public Health England has been monitoring the effectiveness of vaccinations in clinical risk groups with immunosuppression, which includes recipients of solid organ transplants. From the evaluation of the vaccine programme, the data shows that completion of the two dose schedule correlates well with protection from both disease and severe outcomes, including hospitalisation and death.</p><p> </p><p>Virus Watch, supported by the UK Research and Innovation and National Institute for Health Research COVID-19 Rapid Response initiative and NHS Test and Trace, provided information regarding patients’ antibodies and included immunocompromised patients as part of their cohort. This suggests some protection against COVID-19 but is only one measure of protection and excludes cellular immunity.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation’s (JCVI) interim advice is that COVID-19 booster vaccinations should first be offered to the most vulnerable.</p><p>The JCVI’s interim advice recommends a two-staged approach, with individuals in stage one offered a booster vaccine as well as a flu vaccine, as soon as possible from September 2021. Individuals in stage two offered a booster vaccine as soon as practicable after stage one, with equal emphasis on deployment of the flu vaccine where eligible. The JCVI advises that unpaid carers and the adult household contacts of immunosuppressed individuals should be offered a COVID-19 booster vaccine.</p><p>Final decisions on the timing and scope and cohort eligibility of any COVID-19 vaccine booster programme will be confirmed once the JCVI has provided their final advice.</p> more like this
