This is an essential, contractual service, from 1st September 2024 onwards. Practices will be paid an IoS payment per vaccine. This is currently a MANUAL SUBMISSION on CQRS.

- Abrysvo® should not be routinely scheduled to be given to older adults at the same appointment or on the same day as an influenza or COVID-19 vaccine. No specific interval is required between administering the vaccines.
- If it is thought that the individual is unlikely to return for a second appointment or immediate protection is necessary, Abrysvo® could be administered at the same time as influenza and/or COVID-19 vaccine.
- Abrysvo® can be given at the same time as pneumococcal, shingles vaccine and any live vaccines.
- Proactively call/recall older adults ASAP so as many vaccines as possible can be administered in September/October 2024

- Pregnant women can have Abrysvo® co-administered with inactivated influenza vaccine, COVID-19 vaccine and/or anti-D immunoglobulin, if necessary. When more than one vaccine is administered, it should be at different sites, preferably different limbs.
- If a pertussis containing vaccine has not been given by the time of attendance for Abrysvo® RSV vaccine, both vaccines can and should be given at the same appointment to ensure prompt development of immune response.
