Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if his Department will review the decision not to use the free flu jab list as the basis for determining the eligibility of asthmatics for inclusion on the covid-19 booster priority list.

The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation’s advice on the eligibility of asthmatics for the COVID-19 booster vaccine programme is kept under continuous review, based on any new advice from the British Thoracic Society.
