PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Human Papillomavirus: Vaccination (17 March 2021)
Question Asked
Asked by:
Caroline Nokes (Conservative)
Answer
All providers are working with NHS England and NHS Improvement’s commissioners, with clinical advice from Public Health England, to deliver all missed school aged vaccinations as soon as possible and no later than August 2021. All areas were asked to establish vaccination programme recovery plans and many providers were able to offer some immunisation programme catch-up ahead of 2020/21. Where possible, providers have offered vaccinations through alternative school and community settings. In addition, support was sought from the Department for Education to ensure that wherever possible schools facilitated the vaccination continuation.
