Many more people will receive the first dose of the Oxford/Astrazeneca coronavirus vaccine in GP practices and community vaccination centres across Scotland from tomorrow (Monday).
The vaccine, approved for use in the UK by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) on December 30, has already been administered in primary care settings in NHS Tayside, Lothian, Orkney and Highland.
First doses of the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine will now start to be administered in GP practices and community centres across the rest of Scotland including the north-east this week.
