Due last night….

Approved by GPC Thursday…

So what do we believe is in the DES?????

Use GP surgeries to deliver COVID19 Vaccine, as early as December

975 vaccinations a dose at single sites per network = 81 hrs - 12hrs a day, 7 days a week

PCN sites

PPE and distancing

GP Consent?

Standardized consent package produced centrally

Video?

Group consultations?

Side effects including fever, monitor for, not known

Drive-by not practical

£12.58/dose, 2 doses, paid on second dose (even if the first dose is given?) exemptions process possibly?

Is this enough?

Logistics and storage, “vial of 1000 doses”, 2 people to draw up, -70c until used
