This is from the BBC Health Correspondent today:
The NHS will now be able to significantly speed up the vaccination process. There are already millions of doses of the Oxford vaccine in the country ready to go. The move to a one-dose strategy will also have a major impact. Within weeks the UK should have 1,500 local vaccination centres up and running - enabling in theory close to two million people a week to be vaccinated if supply can keep up. That means by the end of March the majority of the people in nine priority groups could have been offered a jab. Certainly the over-65s - nine in 10 Covid deaths have been seen in this age group - should have been done. One dose does not offer as much protection as two doses clearly - but the evidence suggests it is effective at preventing serious illness from infection in the very least.
The calculator is based on 1 million people a week receiving vaccinations. The prospect of this doubling to 2 million is fantastic news. Let’s hope it can be done.
