To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what treatment options are available through the NHS to support individuals who have had (a) injuries, (b) side effects and (c) other symptoms separate to long Covid following their covid-19 vaccinations.
Answer
In the very rare event where an individual may have suffered a severe adverse reaction to a COVID-19 vaccine, care is likely to be best managed by local National Health Service specialist services, augmented as appropriate by national specialist advice. Any continuing care would be met by local care services with expertise in the treatment of disease or disability, as appropriate.
