Covid-19 Update

Debate between Olivia Blake and Maggie Throup

Thursday 21st October 2021 Commons Chamber

[Olivia Blake (Sheffield, Hallam) (Lab)]

I declare that I have diabetes. One in three people who have died from covid had diabetes, yet it has been unclear to those with diabetes whether they are eligible for a third vaccine. Can the Minister clarify whether all groups, including group 6, will be offered a booster? Will that be urgently communicated to people suffering from diabetes?

[Maggie Throup]

The booster has been offered to all those in cohorts 1 to 9, so cohort 6 is included in that.
