Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether covid-19 vaccine supply will be prioritised to regions according to (a) local population size, (b) local vulnerable population, (c) local population in the top four priority categories and (d) proportion of the local population already vaccinated.
NHS England and NHS Improvement continue to work with vaccination sites across the country to ensure an adequate and consistent supply of vaccine. Each Primary Care Network site receives their own supply and work has been carried out with local clinical commissioning group colleagues to ensure that vaccine supply aligns with the number of registered patients in the priority cohort groups. Where sites may progress through their supply more quickly than others, NHS England and NHS Improvement are working with sites to ensure that supplies are replenished.
