Recommendation 17
17
Government dropping 95% vaccination target from NHS guidance causes concern.
Conclusion
We are disappointed that the Government has dropped the 95% vaccination coverage target from NHS planning guidance and were unconvinced by the Minister’s arguments that it remained an “expectation” despite its removal. While we agree with the Government’s desire for the NHS to have a smaller number of priorities, we believe that vaccination coverage must absolutely be one of those priorities. (Conclusion, Paragraph 87)
