People with เกม Slotxo คุ้มค่ากับการลงทุน? asthma who are eligible for a coronavirus vaccine are being refused it by some GPs who are not following government guidance, the BBC has found.

An NHS England letter sent to GPs in mid-February says people who have "ever had an emergency asthma admission" to hospital fall into priority group six, which is currently being vaccinated.

But some patients are being told a hospital admission within the past 12 months is required.

GPs say they look at various factors.

These include age and ethnicity, as well as some degree of clinical judgement, the Royal College of GPs said.

'Scared witless'

Sonja Chenier, 47, from Colchester, has had three hospital admissions in the past 15 years and takes multiple medications daily for her asthma.

Her GP surgery told her she wasn't eligible for the vaccine yet because her hospital admissions weren't in the past year, and so "it wasn't relevant". She was told to expect a call for a vaccine along with her age group in around June.

'Different interpretations'

Charity Asthma UK says a lot of people have been in touch with them to report a similar issue, and they've had thousands of call to their helpline asking for advice on the vaccine rollout.

Sarah Woolnough, chief executive of Asthma UK and the British Lung Foundation, said: "We know that there are different interpretations of the official guidance from GP surgery staff and we're not sure why exactly this is happening.
