Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many people in the first four priority groups have been refused a covid-19 vaccine due to their medical history being incompatible with the covid-19 vaccination green book.

This data is not published in the format requested.

As with any vaccine, there are a few individuals for whom vaccination may be contra-indicated. For COVID-19, this includes those who have had a previous systemic allergic reaction to a previous dose of the same COVID-19 vaccine or any component of the COVID-19 vaccine.
