Our plan sets out how we will expand and accelerate our rollout, creating the largest vaccination programme in British history, with:
• 206 active hospital sites
• 50 large vaccination centres
• 1,200 local vaccination sites
All meaning that by the end of the month everyone in England will be within 10 miles of a site or have a vaccine brought to them in highly remote areas.
And by mobilising a workforce of over 80,000 from the NHS, armed forces, and government, with the support of potentially over 200,000 members of the public, we can commit to the following timetable:

1) End of January – all residents and staff in over 10,000 care homes across the country will be offered a vaccine.
2) February 15th – all those in the top four priority groups, who account for 88% of fatalities, will be offered a first dose.
3) Spring – all nine high-risk groups for phase one of the programme (32 million people accounting for 99% of deaths) will be vaccinated.
4) Autumn – All UK adults will have been offered a vaccine.


32m by the spring.

If we put this in context, France intends to have 500-600 vaccine centres in the next month or two.

Yes, I saw that.

It is why I said on another thread that because things are going pretty well the gap between the two doses looks to have shrunk from 12 weeks to seven or eight and could shrink further.
