Homeless people to be prioritised in vaccine rollout – The Dumbarton and Vale of Leven Reporter
Health Secretary Matt Hancock said the move would ‘save more lives among those most at risk in society’.
The Government will prioritise homeless people in the rollout of coronavirus vaccines following advice from the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI).
Health Secretary Matt Hancock said he had accepted advice from the JCVI and the move would “save more lives among those most at risk in society”.
The JCVI said people who were homeless or sleeping rough were likely to have underlying health conditions and should be offered jabs alongside those in priority group six.
