Public Health

Proceeding contribution from Baroness Keeley (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 14 December 2021. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Public Health.

My hon. Friend is handling his speech in just the right way. There is a balance of rights here, and patients have a right to be treated by staff who are fully vaccinated to protect them. I have a constituent who is clinically extremely vulnerable. She contacted me to say that she was not willing to go to her necessary hospital appointments once she realised that the hospital staff were not fully vaccinated. Does my hon. Friend agree that we have to think of that pretty large number of clinically extremely vulnerable people in this country?
