Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the expected coverage rates of maternal respiratory syncytial virus vaccination in the first year of the programme.
The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation considered uptake when developing their advice on a maternal respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccination programme. Uptake for the RSV vaccination programme is expected to be like that of other year-round maternal respiratory immunisation programmes.
