Covid vaccines: areas in Harrogate with the lowest vaccine uptake in over 70s

Since the UK’s vaccination programme started in December around 19 million people have received their first dose of a Covid-19 vaccine.

Official figures from NHS England now reveal how many people have been vaccinated in neighbourhoods across the country.

In Harrogate, 48,753 people had received at least one dose of a Covid-19 vaccine between December 8, 2020 and February 21, 2021 including 55,392 over 70s.

In December the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) advised that care home residents should be prioritised for a vaccine to prevent further deaths, followed by over 80s, over 75s and then over 70s. This was alongside healthcare staff.

The uptake varies across neighbourhoods though.
