A Norwich care home has been able to carry out more than 50 vaccinations in the wake of a coronavirus outbreak.
At Mayflower Court care home, in Bowthorpe, 26 residents were vaccinated alongside 29 members of staff on Thursday, with the Oxford Astra Zeneca vaccine.
The home is among a number in Norfolk currently dealing with a coronavirus outbreak, which is declared when two or more people have tested positive for the Covid-19.
Any residents currently testing positive for Covid-19 are unable to receive the vaccine at the present time, in line with Government policy. The Government’s aim is for those individuals to be offered the vaccine 28 days from their last positive test date, where possible.

A generous six-year-old and his four cousins have been hailed as little heroes after they used their time and pocket money to make cards and buy gifts for residents at a Norfolk care home.
After learning about giving at school, Wymondham youngster Logan Baker hatched a plan to put a smile on the faces of people who have been isolated and alone this year.
His mum, Nikki Baker, said her son had been inspired by lessons at Ashleigh School in the market town, and that his cousins were keen to jump on board as soon as they heard about his plan.
