At a time when discussions focus on the priority to be given vaccination, the professor of health policies at the LSE, Elijah Mosialos, focused, with its publication on Facebook, in risk groups.
«We now know that some underlying health conditions increase the risk of morbidity and mortality from COVID-19. In the UK, which is preparing for vaccination, the committee’s advice to priority groups has already been announced. Among them are people aged 65 and over without underlying disease, followed by people in high-risk groups aged 16 and over.He scored, among other things.
Referring to the risk groups, he identified them as follows:
Chronic respiratory disease, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cystic fibrosis, and severe asthma.
chronic heart disease (and vascular disease)
chronic kidney disease
chronic liver disease
chronic neurological disease including epilepsy
Down’s Syndrome
severe learning disability
diabetes
solid, bone marrow and stem cell transplant recipients
some cancer patients
immunosuppression due to disease or treatment
asplenia and splenic dysfunction
severe obesity
severe mental illness
and we look forward to further clarification on these categories in the coming weeks. When they are announced I will make another post.
by pregnant women and children he pointed: “I have already referred to the UK vaccination guidelines for pregnant women and children under 12 years of age. Since pregnant women and young children were not included in clinical trials, there is no scientific knowledge or evidence of a risk of vaccination during pregnancy. After coronavirus infection, almost all children have an asymptomatic infection or mild illness. There are very limited data on vaccination in adolescents and we do not have data on vaccination in younger children. For teens ages 12 to 18, clinical trials are ongoing and we will have safety and efficacy data soon.».
