Exemptions from being vaccinated and tested

I have posted in the Coronavirus section but am posting here also for traffic and so that more people are aware of this.

In respect of the Covid Pass previously this could only be obtained by being double vaxxed or proving recent immunity. This has now changed. If someone cannot be vaxxed due to medical reasons and or cant be tested for medical reasons they now can get the same Covid pass that vaccinated people have.

Applications for the exemption opened yesterday.
To apply you need to phone 119 and give your details (you do not need to give medical or confidential info), just that you believe yourself to be exempt from vaccines and or testing, give your name, address, dob, nhs number etc. Then the form will be sent to you and you get your GP to sign it, then you send it back and you get your covid pass.

Your covid pass will not state whether you have been vaccinated or not and will not highlight your exemption. It will merely be a covid pass just like anyone else so it's confidential and no way of knowing by looking at the pass whether you are exempt or vaccinated.

yes it's an option pregnant women can use if they do not want to get vaccinated during pregnancy.
