answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/06/2021 answer text <p>The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) is the independent body made up of scientific and clinical experts who advise Government on COVID-19 vaccine prioritisation at a population level.</p><p>The JCVI has assessed and reviewed data to understand the association between occupation and the risk of exposure to COVID-19, the risk of COVID-19 disease and the risk of COVID-19 related severe outcomes. Based on their assessments, the JCVI concluded that frontline health and social care staff and adult carers should both be prioritised for vaccination in Phase One of the COVID-19 vaccination programme as they are at high risk of exposure to COVID-19 and may also expose vulnerable individuals and other staff members whilst providing care. This includes both paid professionals and unpaid carers, who provide care in people’s own homes, and are prioritised in cohorts two and six respectively.</p><p>The Government has accepted this advice. Priority cohorts two and six have both been called forward for vaccination earlier this year.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 07/06/2021 08:35:35 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/04/2021 answer text <p>We have sufficient doses to maintain our vaccination programme. We are in constant contact with the vaccine manufacturers, including Pfizer, and remain confident that the supply of vaccine to the United Kingdom will not be disrupted. We are on track to meet our target to offer a vaccine to all adults by the end of July.</p><p> </p><p>Vaccine supplies have already been set aside for everyone who has already received their first dose and there are currently no delays in the administration of the second dose of the vaccine. If an individual is invited for a COVID-19 vaccination via a general practitioner, a second vaccination appointment can then be offered to the patient in the following 12-week period.</p><p> </p><p>Where a patient has been invited to book their own appointment, they will be required to book their second appointment in a time slot 11 to 12 weeks on from their first appointment. NHS England’s guidance states that all vaccination centres should ensure that all second dose appointments are booked in by the twelfth week.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 26/04/2021 16:46:40 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/04/2021 answer text <p>The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) has concluded that the most effective way to minimise hospitalisations and deaths is to continue to prioritise people by age, as this is assessed to be the strongest factor linked to mortality, morbidity and hospitalisations and the speed of delivery is crucial to provide more people with protection from COVID-19. Police officers, in line with the JCVI’s advice, will therefore be prioritised for vaccination according to their age and clinical risk along with the rest of the population. They will not be prioritised based on their occupation.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 19/04/2021 09:12:55 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi
