Vaccine Science Briefing

The video discusses a vaccination program aimed at protecting those most at risk of dying from COVID-19 and supporting health and social care services. The advice is divided into two parts: offering vaccination based on estimated risk, primarily determined by age, and focusing on local implementation to address health inequalities. The prioritization order for vaccination starts with care home residents and workers, followed by age groups and those with specific health conditions. Phase one aims to cover 90-99% of those at risk.
