answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/09/2021 answer text <p>Advice from the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) noted that it was advisable to continue the vaccination of the 50–64-year-old cohort because from the age of 50 years old, individuals are at a greater risk of being hospitalised as a result of COVID-19 and the result of coinfection of COVID-19 and flu is likely to be more severe. However, no decision has been made on whether the eligibility of this cohort will be made permanent.</p><p>The Department will continue to consider the advice of the JCVI in decisions on which flu cohorts are recommended for a flu vaccine in the future. The JCVI use the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence’s methodology and criteria to assess whether a vaccine programme can be considered cost effective or not.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 08/09/2021 15:02:32 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi previous answer version 18931 answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/04/2021 answer text <p>There are currently no plans to reduce the number of vaccines available to North West England and transfer those to other English regions. To ensure all of those people in the top priority groups can get vaccinated quickly, targeted deliveries are being made to areas where there are more people left to vaccinate in the priority cohorts - proportionate to the at-risk population they have registered. This should allow any existing disparities to be addressed, alongside standing up community pharmacy and additional vaccination centres across the country to ensure access for everyone.</p><p>NHS England and NHS Improvement continue to work with vaccination sites across the country to ensure an adequate and consistent supply of vaccine.</p><p>Each Primary Care Network site receives their own supply and work has been carried out with local CCG colleagues to ensure that vaccine supply aligns with the number of registered patients in the priority cohort groups. Where sites may progress through their supply more quickly than others, NHS England and NHS Improvement are working with sites to ensure that supplies are replenished to continue vaccinating our most vulnerable.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 13/04/2021 15:54:47 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi previous answer version 79507 answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi
