Hundreds of Pfizer doses delivered to a GP surgery in Macclesfield have been thrown away due to a refrigeration issue meaning the town s most vulnerable face another three week wait for the jab.
A batch of the coronavirus vaccine Pfizer-BioNTech, containing 975 doses, delivered to Waters Green Medical Centre was found to be unusable.
The problem was caused by issues refrigerating the vaccine, which needs to be kept at -70 degrees centigrade and then 2 to 8 degrees at vaccination centres for up to five days.
The same number of people who were scheduled to have the vaccine will now not get it until a later date.
