WQ.455/2021
WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR HOME AFFAIRS BY DEPUTY J.M. MAÇON OF ST. SAVIOUR
QUESTION SUBMITTED ON MONDAY 15TH NOVEMBER 2021 ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON MONDAY 22ND NOVEMBER 2021
Question
Will the Minister explain whether, at the time of death, a person's Covid vaccination status is recorded either on the death certificate or any other system; and if not, why not?
Answer
Deaths which occur in Jersey are registered according to provisions set out in the Marriage & Civil Status (Jersey) Law 2001. The required information recorded on a death registration (and therefore a death certificate) is prescribed in that law. Vaccination status is not prescribed as required information and is therefore not recorded on a death registration or death certificate.
An individual's vaccine status is held as part of their Primary Care records, although this data is not held centrally by Government.
