Nice one Bluebuxton.
I have noticed their seems to be a real slow down of vaccines administered, and I'm more or less certain its not down to availability, my local surgery is doing walk in surgery's where ANYONE can get a vaccine even of you are not a member.
3 days ago there were 46,476,845 first vaccines given reported on phe twitter board and 36,762,646 that had both doses.
Today it was reported 46,589,211 first doses and 37,287,384 second doses , thats a increase of only 111k on first vaccines and approx 500k on second.
The second one I'm sure will be near the 45m mark in 8 weeks , but it does make you wonder how many more are actually going to come forward for a first dose.
Maybe a lot of these presumable young people who haven't had the vaccine have had covid already and feel a vaccine AT THIS time is pointless .
I guess time will tell, however there will be a time vaccine uptake will halt due to the population being vaccinated with luck we will reach that point sooner rather then later.
I would be interested to know how many under 18s we have in the UK, the expected percent of people likley to refuse the vaccine and how many are left that would take a vaccine, I also believe there are many citizens living abroad that haven't returned yet for their vaccine , a common theme I see working in the ports the last few months
