Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether the Novovax vaccine will be available to patients in the UK.
We continue to be guided by the advice of the independent Joint Committee of Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) on the vaccines which should be deployed in the United Kingdom’s COVID-19 vaccination programme. In line with the JCVI’s current advice, the Novavax vaccine is not currently being deployed in the UK. We will consider further advice from the JCVI in due course.
