Corona vaccine

 

 where we are with the guts of faxing nation and help to today 12 January 12. So there's been a lot in the press about the safety of the Kobe 19 backseat so be categorical about it's like to reassure everyone invited to say cool still on the NHS won't offer taxis to anybody until the regulator the medicines healthcare we're going through all sorts of Hausa proved any vaccination is safe and effective I have full confidence in the having to raise children I'm that damage I have said that the safe exceeds that of all the images using them really really really clear about all of the highly effective as well so as with any medicine vaccines are highly regulated products they go through several stages of lab tests clinical trials before they get anywhere to use in humans the state taxes have been through those tests and this continued monitoring once the vaccination has been authorized and is obviously now being used in a much wider population ugh the purpose of the vaccines are designed to prevent people from getting serious infections and it's much safer to allow your immune system to develop an antibody response to vaccination the duties by catching the illness and developing an antibody response in that way I'm approaching my family my friends were eligible to get the vaccination I'm really gonna get really clear about what. How long will it take to eligible people to get vaccinated it will take time of the patients please don't contact your GP the NHS will contact people when they become eligible Indian actresses working through the list of eligible people in a specific priority older took to please don't contact your GP they will contact you on we expect to say that the the availability of the Oxford AstraZeneca maxi is a game changer I'm I'm will significantly accelerate the the delivery vaccination program but he's a huge logistical efforts on them with the best will in the world that will take some time. Research so far all we've got 15 vaccination senses being ruled by GP practices they're open rolling now transaction date saying the over eighties and nineties and $0.95 a Sheffield Sheffield GP practices the the the senses are also fascinating the over eighties GP stuff Calhoun was to stop so those are the initial priorities and that's where we're focusing our energies and efforts first very very deliberately okay so the the Oxford vaccine as I've said the Oxford office any questions it is a game changer it's easier to transport easier to store the fines of oxidation that doesn't mean the funds of oxidation is not useful things of how to fit every very useful to have a good deal to vaccination is easier to use because it makes it easier to delivering care homes on to people who are house bound a Sheffield has received its first says of the Oxford Esther's any function last week upon us started using not a practitioner's been delivering it to cattle residents in casual stuff a really helpfully we don't have to update that might generate just slightly amended the regulatory advice we don't have to now have patience of being observed for 15 minutes after the AstraZeneca vaccine or not makes it easier to get more people vaccinated in a certain space of time we were expecting is a city job the majority of residents vaccinated by the end of January that we would push with pulling out all the stops to make to make sure that happens. So on the below is the biggest vaccination program in history and it was a say it will take time to get through to to get to do all the eligible people to fully vaccinate those that we want to vaccinate it initially the supply of the vaccine is coming through in small batches of which means the NHS is rolling it's outweighed by way of it I would expect me to say that our GP practices in Sheffield and everywhere else a well used to delivering tens of thousands of flu vaccines a year they do so year in year out not works really well I'm so we're don't say you can see some respect some of the some some some of them some similar similar mentality it is a marathon not a sprint and it will take some time based on our current forecasts and things will change over time but we we estimate that will be able to get a vaccine into all those that the joint committee on bass and nations of said would benefit by the bed late spring he's not he's our best estimates the NHS has the capacity to train staff to deliver the vaccines but but it's it's got to say that the vaccine shortages of reality in.com we wish to where we're managing that as best as best we can with pushing as best we can with the constraints that that we have. Hello. Asks the money box knows where about the second dose on the national guidance is changed so they'll now be a 12 week period between doses of and that means that we'll be able to get the maximum immunological benefit from most people in the shortest space of time if the aim of the program is to save as many lives as possible that it makes more sense to give more people want to start Hoffman group people 2 doses of the deep mud to medical offices really clear about I don't have the greatest impact on reducing mortality to the disease hospitalizations up until the evidence is really clear that one though still all still offers a very high level of protection that recommendation was from the joint committee on boxnation immunization I supported I've been through other said I support it completely up to us to I thank the medical professionals in Sheffield I'm so we do recognize however on that some people this is a longer wait will be worth reading the longer wait between those 1 and then the second those will will will be will remain finishes throughout the discussions about today people with the second soon if they think that's needed ugh if you have an appointment for the second dose and you haven't heard of it it's I hate it I haven't heard that it's been counseled them please total cost plans Hey if your second does husband counsel you will have been contacted so if you happen to please turn overs please turn up as planned okay. Good second getting both doses remains really important the thing that's changed is the space between those want those 2 it's still really really important that you get both doses all 3 vaccination so when you get your appointment pulled does too please please attend. Which teams are currently available to available to the NHS at the moment one is defined as a bouncer box nation the second one is the Oxford hosters any complexity both of them are available both of them are in use in Sheffield both have been shown to be safe but also very high levels of protection both have been given I met Tara brutal for use so we are encouraging people to not think that they can pick and choose the vaccine that they waltz on a will but both both are effective in both saw a to save this is a judge judge by the cemex are right on the right limiting step will be the vaccine availability I would have either of the 2 vaccines so so we're encouraging people not to be picky choosy but to take the vaccine that that is available when when their appointments is. Last point how will people be invited so when the time when is the right time for people to receive a vaccine they will be invited on the most people that will be in the form of a laptop the higher the the date she paid for the national booking system and that will include all the information they need to bring with them to the appointment enabling the letter will be will be built an access number ugh I would say again it is the biggest of blacks and Asian programming U. K. history is probably one of the biggest logistic exercises the NHS will have on the take it will take time and there's no 2 ways about that I know full well there are lots of people you get to get vaccinated as soon as possible but we are asking people not to contact their GP to get an appointment but to wait for an invitation.
