Department of Health and Social Care written question – answered at on 8 February 2021.
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps he is taking to ensure that (a) Havering and (b) other London boroughs with significant elderly and vulnerable populations receive supplies of covid-19 vaccines proportionate to the number of residents in high priority groups.
The COVID-19 vaccine programme has expanded rapidly in the last month, with over 140 vaccination sites across London, including 44 hospital hubs, 101 local vaccination services and two vaccination centres currently in operation. This network of vaccination sites has been designed to fit the expected vaccine supply and demand and to ensure safe and easy access for the whole population. For the provision of vaccines and their onward deployment, the Government closely monitors the clearly defined supply chain plans for manufacturing, transport, storage and distribution. Targeted deliveries are being made to areas where there are more people left to vaccinate in the priority cohorts, proportionate to the at-risk population they have registered.
