The primary care recovery plan will be published shortly and will set out a range of proposals including how they will be funded.

Community pharmacy have played an active role in every phase of the COVID-19 vaccination programme. At the height of the booster programme there were over 1,500 designated community pharmacy-led COVID-19 vaccination sites. As recommendations are made to the Government on the need for any future vaccination programmes, NHS England will consider how best to deliver them.
