Following two case reports of anaphylactoid reactions associated with administration of the Pfizer BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, MHRA has produced urgent precautionary advice for healthcare professionals. This includes the need for vaccine recipients to be monitored for 15 minutes after vaccination, with a longer observation period when indicated after clinical assessment.
This new requirement will have an impact on primary care plans for the clinics. If this raises issues relating to premise capacity and patient flow, practice groups should discuss this with their CCG.
