Coronavirus morning headlines as Wales Covid Vaccination Plan to be published Cathy Owen
The Welsh Government will set out when people will be offered a vaccine when it publishes its Covid Vaccination Plan on Monday, January 11.
The plan is expected to describe how all eligible adults will be vaccinated in the biggest programme of its kind, as Wales faces criticism for the speed of its roll-out.
From Monday, daily vaccination figures for Wales will be published after it was revealed that 70,000 people had received their first dose of the Covid vaccine by the end of last week.
There have been around 275,000 doses available in Wales, meaning approximately 1.6% of people were vaccinated up to January 3 - fewer than all other UK nations.
TEACHERS in Wales should be placed on the vaccination priority list, a group of Carmarthenshire councillors has said. They are asking the council’s executive board to formally consider their recommendation, and to lobby the Welsh Government. Members of the education and scrutiny committee agreed the move – proposed by Cllr Jean Lewis – after hearing about the challenges faced by teachers during the coronavirus pandemic. Her proposal was that teachers should be fifth on the UK-wide priority list behind residents in a care home for older adults and their carers, people aged 80 and over and frontline health and social care workers, people aged 75 and over, and those aged 70 years and over and clinically extremely vulnerable individuals.
