Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask Her Majesty's Government when they will publish updated and detailed (1) guidance, and (2) communications, to people who are immunocompromised in light of the easing of COVID-19 restrictions.
On 25 February 2022, the Government issued Guidance for people previously considered clinically extremely vulnerable from COVID-19 in an online only format. This provides guidance for those whose immune system means they are at higher risk of serious illness from COVID-19 to reduce the risks of exposure to the virus. Enhanced protections such as those offered by treatments, additional vaccinations and other non-clinical interventions may benefit this cohort. The Government continues to review the public health advice provided to those who are immunocompromised.
