I am sure I will be answering that question later. As we all know, the roll-out to the housebound is extremely important. More than 3,500 referrals have been received from GPs for housebound patients to date. The GP determines and refers the person on to the National Ambulance Service.
As of 2 May, a total of 2,045 dose 1 and 739 dose 2 vaccinations have been administered, so that is just under 2,800 vaccinations. Currently, fewer than 500 people are waiting for their first dose and they will be done by the end of next week.
