Health and Social Care Secretary statement on Covid-19 vaccination of at-risk children aged 6 months to 4 years
21 April 2023

You can read the JCVI’s full advice here on the health protection section of the GOV.UK website.
It is important to note that data shows that Covid does not pose a serious threat of harm to most children. Furthermore, not all children who are in a clinical risk group are equally at risk of harm should they contract Covid therefore it should be a parental decision made (if necessary) with the guidance of their child’s healthcare team as to whether they wish to vaccinate for protection against Covid or not.
