Almost 250,000 vaccines given in north Cumbria
NHS England figures show that 246,144 vaccines had been administered by Thursday.
That is 181,458 first vaccines and 64,686 second vaccines â delivered through primary care teams, hospital hubs, community pharmacies and the Penrith Auction Mart vaccination centre.
Teams are currently providing the second dose to those who were called early in the programme â mainly those over 80, those in care homes, and frontline NHS and social care staff.
This is mainly happening at Primary Care Network (PCN) hubs which can handle large numbers of patients receiving the Pfizer vaccine (which requires specialist handling).
There are also a range of bookable options now available which can be accessed through the National Booking Service
