Covid Plans in Place

Covid Plans in Place

The Government has issued new guidance on the COVID-19 response in an Autumn and Winter Plan 2021 for England.

Plan A concentrates on:-

an enhanced vaccination programme

  • Maximising uptake of the vaccine among those that are eligible but have not yet taken up the offer.
  • Offering booster doses to individuals who received vaccination in Phase 1 of the COVID-19 vaccination programme (priority groups 1-9).
  • Offering a first dose of vaccine to 12-15 year olds.=

and a continuation of Test and Trace plus safer behaviours and actions that reduce the spread of COVID-19 amongst other measures.

If the data suggests the NHS is likely to come under unsustainable pressure, the Government has prepared a Plan B which they hope not to implement.

  • Communicating clearly and urgently to the public that the level of risk has increased, and with it the need to behave more cautiously.
  • Introducing mandatory vaccine-only COVID-status certification in certain settings.
  • Legally mandating face coverings in certain settings.Plan B

Disability Sheffield is a forward-thinking, energetic organisation doing a lot of positive work in Sheffield. I have no doubt they will continue to do so for a long time to come.

When I moved to Sheffield nearly five years ago it was my "go to" organisation. I expect it to stay that way. All the staff and volunteers seem to pull out little gems of effort that disabled people like me couldn't do without. Professionally and personally - I love em :)

A fantastic presentation thought provoking and good questions from the floor around promoting this film/message to the general public not just professionals.
