Health Minister: Vaccination numbers will fall temporarily

Health Minister David Ashford says the number of vaccinations being carried out on-Island will fall over the next week.

Speaking at a press briefing yesterday, he said the government had expected the immunisation programme to tail off slightly because of disruption to supplies.

He said that would mean only around 400 doses a day could be administered at the Island's vaccination centres.

But Mr Ashford says as supplies return to normal he expects that number to rise again.
