“Many people with COPD live under the constant worry of when their next disease flare-up could lead to an episode of disabling breathlessness or an emergency hospital admission. The NHS rollout of a take-at-home jab for COPD will transform the lives of around 100,000 people over the next few years, cutting the chances of them having severe exacerbations by one-third for the first time as well as improving their quality of life.”
What Dr Jonathan Fuld has said
“Around 1 in 5 people in England will be affected by respiratory illness in their lifetime and far too many are living with symptoms that are undiagnosed or poorly managed, often in communities that already face the greatest health challenges. The RTP can be a blueprint for how partnerships between the NHS, charities, professional bodies and pharmaceutical companies can deliver better outcomes for people in every part of the country by improving rates of diagnosis, providing ongoing care and advice in local, neighbourhood services and offering innovative treatments that can keep people out of hospital.”
