The NHS has planned extensively to deliver the largest vaccination programme in our history. The first COVID-19 vaccine (Pfizer/BioNTech) has been rigorously tested and confirmed as safe and highly effective by the expert Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).

When you become eligible for vaccination, you will receive an invitation to come forward for your vaccination. For most people, this will be a letter either from BGPA, the GP Practice or the national NHS. Some people might receive a text or phone call from BGPA or the GP Practice.

The first vaccine (Pfizer/BioNTech) has been rigorously tested and confirmed as safe and highly effective by the expert Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), with the vaccine roll-out beginning on 8 December 2020.

The HIV Commission started gathering evidence a year ago and has taken written submissions as well as holding public meetings, talking to local stakeholders and community members, to understand the different regional responses to the epidemic.
