Make Covid-19 vaccination available to all outpatients needing surgery
The Government should ensure Covid vaccination is available as part of the pre-operarative processes for patients needing surgery, to help protect patients from catching Covid whilst in hospital.
In January my Dad went into hospital for what was supposed to be a relatively simple operation but one that was needed. There ended up being complications and he had to go to a ward which is where he caught Covid. We ended up losing him to Covid pneumonia. It is my belief that if patients were offered the vaccine as part of their pre-op process at whatever age (if wanted), risk would be reduced and it could save patients and families a lot pain and also reduce the workload for the NHS.
