Which one of you is going to expose @sajidjavid for not procuring #Evusheld for immunosuppressed blood cancer, transplant patients and others who are under house arrest?
#Evusheld was approved by MHRA in March 22. Despite the emergence of Omicron the government continued to give Booster Vaccinations. They didn’t donfurther testing to confirm efficacy against new variants. They never have. BUT ….
Clinically extremely vulnerable patients who are immune compromised don’t mount a good response to these freely available vaccines, pushed on the public constantly, some can’t even have them because of contra indications to their life saving drugs.
#Evusheld produced by Astra Zeneca is a preventative vaccine which would be suitable for a great many of these patients. It is now used in 30 countries, USA, EU, Aus, Thailand. @sajidjavid@maggie_erewash insist that because it was approved before Omicron they must test further
They don’t say what the time line is and fob off MPs who ask. @vickyfoxcroft@GwynneMP Hundreds of us have written to our MPs. It appears they have been instructed to send standard letters, most like this. All can be challenged now.
Astra Zeneca deny any ‘commercial sensitivity. You can find any information you need about real world efficacy, MHRA approval and Astra Zeneca information on getevusheld.uk. We are desperate people abandoned by UK #government still shielding unable to Live with Covid.
Why don’t the Gov retest vaccines every time there is a new variant?
The MHRA said in original approval that Evusheld may need to be higher dose for future variants. This has been adopted by other countries successfully.
Finally! The Government will say vulnerable patients can get antivirals if they catch #Covid. The people I am talking about are doing their best not to catch Covid, hence they are shielding. Catching Covid could mean ICU or death. Antivirals are not the answer! @evusheld4theuk

#FreedomDay would people who now feel they have freedom and #Covid is just a cold, who’ve been on holiday, the pub, concerts, etc., join our #Campaign to getevusheld.uk. @evusheld4theuk is a group of immunosuppressed ppl who don’t respond to Covid vaccine. Because …..
They don’t respond to #pfizer, #AstraZeneca#Moderna or they can’t have the same vaccine as you because drugs they are taking for @bloodcancer_uk@kidneycareuk@ArthritisSoc and many other diseases you haven’t heard of but YOU might get. Nobody expects a life limiting diagnosis
There is a drug they could have which would act like t(e vaccine acts on you. It’s called #Evusheld and made by Astra Zeneca. The Gov rolled out the vaccines in the emergency of Covid and you can have them without any further testing, no matter which #variants come along…
@ShaunLintern will you please investigate the lies told by Government to clinically extremely vulnerable people who don’t respond to #Covid vaccines. They need #Evusheld. Those affected have formed a group. All evidence here. getevusheld.uk supported by @bloodcancer_uk
Whole families are shielding or living apart because the immunosuppressed member didn’t mount antibodies to standard vaccines or they can’t have it due to treatment. This drug #Evusheld is now being used worldwide there is no reason it can’t be used here.
Hundreds of us have written to MPs throughout the country, they all send similar replies. getevusheld.uk now has evidence from AZ that what they say is untrue. The MHRA approved #Evusheld in March 2022. Like 30 other countries the UK should use it.
Professor John Edwards, epidemiologist on Radio4Today talking about #Covid waves. Says, vaccines would still work (without adaptation to new variants presumably) says problem going forward is immunosuppressed patients. Why does Gov need to test #Evusheld when this is the answer?
It is time the @BBCFergusWalsh@BBCHughPym investigated why the a government refuse to procure @evusheld4theuk when the only people unable to live with #Covid are the clinically extremely vulnerable who don’t respond or can’t have the standard Covid vaccination.
The standard vaccines aren’t withdrawn, tested and adapted each time a new variant appears AND YET, the excuse for not rolling out #Evusheld is that it was approved before Omicron and more data is required. The real reason appears to be the Gov won’t pay for it.
