Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment he has made of the availability of the 2020 flu vaccine.
This question was answered on 23rd October 2020
We have sufficient vaccine for up to 30 million people to be vaccinated in England this winter.
General practitioners and pharmacists are directly responsible for ordering flu vaccine from suppliers which are used to deliver the national flu programme to adults. In addition, the Department has procured additional doses of seasonal flu vaccine to ensure more flu vaccines are available this winter.
