Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment he has made of the effectiveness of (a) booster buses and (b) pop up clinics in providing hard to reach communities with covid-19 vaccination services.
The COVID-19 vaccine programme continuously assesses its delivery models to ensure sufficient capacity and accessibility. Feedback from communities and frontline teams indicate that mobile clinics, including booster buses and pop-up clinics serving hard to reach communities encourage uptake. Further evaluation by NHS England and NHS Improvement is underway.
