The letter says community pharmacies should plan their ordering on the basis of meeting at least the numbers of vaccinations they achieved during the 2020/21 season.
However, the additional cohort of 50-64 years olds have not been included for this season. The letter does go on to say “As with 2020/21, there may be policy developments to extend the eligible cohorts during 2021/22. These developments will be informed by the levels and impact of COVID-19 infection to the population. In this situation, should additional cohorts be introduced,
further advice will be communicated as soon as possible.”
Therefore, members may want to place orders for vaccines based on numbers achieved in the current season excluding the 50-64 year old patient group.
