More than 137,000 people have received a coronavirus vaccine in the UK, it has been announced.
Nadhim Zahawi, the minister responsible for the jab’s deployment, tweeted that it was a “really good start”.
In seven days, he said the number of doses administered were:
- 108,000 in England
- 7,897 in Wales
- 4,000 in Northern Ireland
- 18,000 in Scotland
Mr Zahawi confirmed there had been 137,897 vaccinations given across the UK so far.
“That number will increase as we have operationalised hundreds of PCN (primary care networks),” he added – referencing the rollout due to begin in GPs’ surgeries and the promise it will follow in care homes before Christmas.
The Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine being administered needs a second jab several weeks later for full effectiveness.
The government has faced calls to be more open about the data when it comes to coronavirus vaccinations – for example, by publishing how many have been given and where on a daily basis, like it does with cases and deaths.
Ministers said it was taking time to collate all the information and verify its accuracy.
