\u00b7 Precautionary measure taken to protect those most vulnerable from illness during winter following the identification of Covid-19 variant BA.2.86<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00b7 Vaccinations are now set to start on 11 September in England with adult care home residents and those most at risk to receive vaccines first<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00b7 Eligible people urged to come forward for their jab as soon as they\u2019re invited<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This year\u2019s autumn flu and Covid-19 vaccine programmes will start earlier than planned in England as a precautionary measure following the identification of a new Covid variant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The precautionary measure is being taken as scientists from UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) examine the variant BA.2.86, which was first detected in the UK on Friday 18 August.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to the latest risk assessment by the UKHSA, BA.2.86 has a high number of mutations and has appeared in several countries in individuals without travel history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While BA.2.86 is not currently classified as a variant of concern, advice from the UKHSA suggests that speeding up the autumn vaccine programme will deliver greater protection, supporting those at greatest risk of severe illness and reducing the potential impact on the NHS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The decision means those most at risk from winter illness \u2013 including people in care homes for older people, the clinically vulnerable, those aged 65 and over, health and social care staff and carers \u2013 will be able to access a Covid vaccine in September.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The annual flu vaccine will also be made available to these groups at the same time wherever possible, to ensure they are protected ahead of winter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vaccinations are now set to start on 11 September, with adult care home residents and those most at risk to receive vaccines first. NHS England will announce full details of the accelerated roll-out soon, and those who fall into higher-risk groups are being encouraged to take up the jab as soon as they\u2019re invited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There is no change to the wider public health advice at this time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
