Importance of vaccinations

This report calls for urgent action to tackle declining vaccination rates among children, citing concern that England did not meet the 95 per cent target for any routine childhood immunisations in 2021/22. It also states that the United Kingdom lags behind international competitors on support for clinical research. The report also calls for immediate action to ensure the readiness of NHS England, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulation Agency (MHRA) and the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) to support innovations around preventive health care, such as personalised cancer vaccine, given an uncertain time frame.
