Children Semah 12 with severe neuro, lower syndrome, immuno suppression and some or severe learning disabilities, as well as those who are individual household contacts suppressed by Immuno, will be eligible for vaccination, the government said about Monday.
The decision to delay the granting of shots to most people under the age of 18 is based on recommendations from the expert advisory panel.
The combined committee of vaccination and immunization says the health benefits of universal vaccinations do not exceed the risks for most young people, who usually suffer from mild symptoms of the virus.
“Today’s suggestion does not recommend vaccination under the 18s without the underlying health condition at this time, ” Health Secretary Sajid Javid said in a statement.” But JCVI will continue to review new data, and consider whether it will recommend vaccination below 18s without healthy health conditions on future.

In addition to medical and scientific questions around the use of Covid-19 vaccines by adolescents, many public health experts have asked questions about the inoculation morality of low-risk children at times when many people who are most vulnerable in the world still lack access to vaccines.
Professor Andrew Pollard, who played an important role in developing the AstraZeneca vaccine, told Parliament’s Science and Technology Committee last month that vulnerable adults must be prioritized to children.
“Are older adults, those who have other health conditions, and health care workers who care for them, who really have to be prioritized,” he said.
Oxford trials must help policy makers decide whether they want to expand mass vaccination programs to children at some point in the future when they try to ensure safe schools and fight the spread of the virus in a broader population, said Pollard.
The announcement came to what the government had dubbed the “day of freedom,” the day most of the remaining 19 covid restrictions had been removed throughout the UK.
