Latest vaccine update from BCUHB: Significant delays to the UK s Covid vaccine supply addressed leaderlive.co.uk - get the latest breaking news, showbiz & celebrity photos, sport news & rumours, viral videos and top stories from leaderlive.co.uk Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday newspapers.
As of March 14, Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board (BCUHB) had delivered 317,393 total vaccinations. Gill Harris, deputy chief executive, said: Last week the vaccination programme ramped up significantly as GP surgery staff across the region helped us take advantage of a significant increase in vaccine supply. We simply could not deliver such a large and complex vaccination programme without their expertise. This week we have received a slightly reduced supply, but we remain on course to meet the Welsh Government’s target of offering vaccination to Priority Groups One to Nine by April 19, and to the rest of the eligible population by the end of July, subject to vaccine supplies.
