Care home residents and people who are confined to their homes will be among the first to receive jabs when the facility goes live, NHS England said. A wider rollout is expected to begin on September 12. The United Kingdom became the first country in the world on Monday to approve Moderna’s vaccine that targets both the original strain of COVID and the Omicron variant. Vaccines that work for two infections are known as bivalents and have been developed by global manufacturers since the appearance of the Omicron variant. Ministers said the 26 million people across England who are eligible for an autumn booster will have access to one of the bivalent vaccines under guidance set out by the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunization (JCVI) on Monday. It comes after reports that the country does not have enough doses to offer the new jab to all people eligible for the booster. As with previous campaigns, the oldest and most vulnerable will be called first, with people able to book online or via 119 as long as three months have passed since their dose. Up to 3,000 locations are expected to be part of the rollout, including GP practices and community pharmacies, and new locations may be added to the scheme. NHS chief executive Amanda Pritchard said: “The NHS was the first healthcare system in the world to deliver a COVID-19 vaccine outside of clinical trials and will now be the first to deliver the new variant vaccine when it goes on sale at the beginning of September”. More than 126 million COVID vaccines have been administered by NHS staff and volunteers since the first vaccine, outside of clinical trials, was delivered to Maggie Keenan in Coventry in December 2020. Ms Pritchard said: “Our fantastic NHS staff have worked incredibly hard to deliver 126 million doses to date and behind the scenes are once again preparing to deliver the final phase with the same speed and precision we have had all along of traffic”. He urged anyone invited to get both a fall booster and a flu shot to “do it as quickly as possible – it will give you maximum protection this winter.”
Scientists Hedging Bets on Mixed COVID Vaccine for Original Strain and Omicron Variants
The new generation vaccine has built-in safety against the evolving COVID virus. Moderna’s jab — and Pfizer isn’t far behind with its own version — still elicits an immune response against the original version of the Wuhan virus. But it also adds protection against the Omicron family of variants that have become so dominant this year. The so-called bivalent – or bivalent – vaccine is the first to be approved by the UK’s medical regulator. Clinical trials have shown it to be safe and generate a much higher antibody response to Omicron.

It means that some people may be offered approved doses of flu and COCIS vaccine that can be given at the same time. Steve Russell, NHS director of vaccinations and screening, said: “This winter will be the first time we see the real effects of both COVID and flu in full circulation as we go about our normal lives – and therefore it is vital that those susceptible to serious illness from these viruses come forward for the latest vaccine in order to protect themselves. “We know that our GPs and community pharmacies have contributed to the success of the NHS vaccination program because of their locations and relationships with local communities, so it’s fantastic that so many have chosen to take part in the latest phase of the campaign.” Read more: Most people with Omicron didn’t even realize they had COVID-19, study finds COVID-19 increases risk of brain fog and dementia, study says Doctor warns COVID is getting ‘too smart’ The national booking service is due to open the week of September 5, with the NHS urging those most vulnerable to serious illness from COVID-19 and people aged 75 and over to book an appointment from that week. Health and social care staff will also be able to receive the autumn souvenir. All providers are urged to ensure that their staff are offered the fall vaccine, possibly at the same time as the flu vaccine. The JCVI and the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) have said that the original vaccines still provide good protection and people should come forward regardless of which vaccine is offered.
