47,000 People Missing COVID Vaccine in North Yorkshire

Saturday, 3 April 2021 07:00

By Matthew Pells

There are 47,000 people in North Yorkshire who are eligible for a COVID vaccination, but who have not come forwards.

410,000 people across North Yorkshire and York have now had their first COVID vaccine and 48,000 have now had a second dose.

However there are still a large number of people eligible for the jab who haven't come forwards.

Amanda Bloor from the NHS in North Yorkshire says it's really important everyone who is eligible does come forward for a jab.

Amanda says health leaders are urging anyone over 50 who hasn't been vaccinated to get in touch even if they have previously been offered the jab and turned it down.

Vaccination appointments for those eligible can be booked here https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/coronavirus-vaccination/book-coronavirus-vaccination/
