Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what progress his Department has made on convening a meeting between interested MPs and NHS England on recent NHS advice about contact with immunocompromised patients about treatment following a report of a positive covid-19 result.

The minister is in the process of scheduling a meeting between MPs, NHS England and the UK Health Security Agency to discuss the recent changes to operational guidance for how immunocompromised people who receive a positive COVID-19 result are able to access COVID-19 treatments.
