question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment he has made of where frontline charity staff that provide fact to face support for people affected by dementia will be categorised on the covid-19 vaccine priority list.
tabling member constituency	Strangford
tabling member printed	Jim Shannon
uin	147851
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/04/2021 answer text <p>Front line health and social care staff including those providing support to those affected by dementia are in priority group 2. Whether an individual health or social care worker provides support on behalf of a charity, the National Health Service, social care or is employed by the private sector is not taken into account when prioritisation is considered. Carers, paid or unpaid, are being vaccinated alongside priority group 6. This include those caring for those affected by dementia. Outside these two categories those providing support for people with dementia would only be prioritised for vaccination in Phase 1 of the programme if they met the criteria for one of the priority groups on the basis of their own risk of serious outcomes from COVID-19. This might be either on grounds of age or clinical risk.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 07/04/2021 08:24:02 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/04/2021 answer text <p>The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) is the independent body made up of scientists and clinical experts who advise the Government on prioritisation of vaccines at a population level. At present, there is very limited data on vaccination in adolescents, with no data on vaccination in younger children. The JCVI advises that only those children at very high risk of exposure and serious outcomes, such as older children with severe neuro-disabilities that require residential care, should be offered vaccination as part of phase one.</p><p>The Public Health England Green Book, which provides guidance for health professionals and immunisation practitioners, also sets out that children under 16 years of age, even if they are clinically extremely vulnerable (CEV), are at low risk of serious morbidity and mortality, and given the absence of safety and efficacy data on the vaccine, are not recommended for vaccination.</p><p>Parents and carers of children who are CEV will be prioritised for vaccination if they are frontline health or social care workers, or if they are an unpaid carer who is in receipt of carers allowance or are the sole or primary carer for a child who is particularly vulnerable to COVID-19. All other parents and carers will be vaccinated alongside other adults of the same age, or earlier if they have an underlying health condition themselves which makes them particularly vulnerable to COVID-19.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 08/04/2021 09:32:49 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi

The process is overseen by clinicians who if required would be able to provide further assistance. We recommend that individuals with a needle phobia contact the vaccination centre directly prior to attendance to determine what mitigations they have for relevant patients and if any special arrangements could be identified to help the recipient feel more comfortable.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 01/04/2021 11:55:57 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/02/2021 answer text <p>The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) advises that for the first phase of the COVID-19 vaccination programme, the priority should be the prevention of COVID-19 mortality and the protection of health and social care staff and systems.</p><p>The secondary priorities include vaccination for those at increased risk of hospitalisation and increased risk of exposure.</p><p> </p><p>Evidence suggests that the risk of serious COVID-19 disease is strongly related to age, and the advice has been to immunise individuals according to age and risk from underlying health condition. If a patient is considered to be at very high risk of serious illness from COVID-19 and based on clinical judgement by their general practitioner or hospital clinician, they could be added to the Shielded Patient List identified as clinically extremely vulnerable. This may include those with an alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 10/02/2021 17:41:16 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi
