Coronavirus: Three-quarters of 80s and over receive vaccine

THREE-QUARTERS of people aged 80 and over in Sussex and East Surrey have received their first dose of a Covid-19 vaccine, figures reveal. Latest NHS data shows 103,329 people had been given their first jab by January 24, as the biggest vaccination programme in NHS history continues. Of those, 46,270 were aged 80 or over ­– equating to 76 per cent of the population in that age group. The figures cover people vaccinated in the Sussex and East Surrey Health and Care Partnership area ­– a collaboration between local NHS services and councils aimed at improving health care. The figures come just days after hundreds of people lined the Brighton Centre as they became some of the first in the city to use the mass vaccination site.

Covid-19: Hundreds queue to be vaccinated at Brighton Centre

A line of people that stretched the length of the building was pictured by a passerby. The image showed masked elderly residents queueing to be among the first in the city to use the centre. Sussex Community NHS Foundation Trust apologised to those who were forced to wait outside. The mass vaccination site, which opened on Monday, is one of 32 that launched across the country this week. However, the long line of waiting patients caused Brighton Kemptown MP Lloyd Russell-Moyle to warn those due to be vaccinated not to arrive early. He said: “I am going to raise it with the CCG [Clinical Commissioning Group]. People need to be encouraged not to arrive early. The last thing people should do is arrive early at the centre.
