It's the great national health drive of our time - the Covid-19 Vaccination Programme.
Vaccinations against coronavirus began this month with hospital, social care and care home workers and people aged 80 and over among the first to receive it.
The first cohort of people to get the vaccine have been chosen with the aim of saving lives and reducing hospital admissions by as much as possible.
The priority list for vaccinations is as follows:
- residents in a care home for older adults and their carers
- all those 80 years of age and over and frontline health and social care workers
- all those 75 years of age and over
- all those 70 years of age and over and clinically extremely vulnerable individuals
- all those 65 years of age and over
- all individuals aged 16 years to 64 years with underlying health conditions which put them at higher risk of serious disease and mortality
- all those 60 years of age and over
- all those 55 years of age and over
- all those 50 years of age and over
The website, Omni Calculator, will give you an idea of when you might be invited by your doctor to get the vaccine.
Assuming that one million people will be vaccinated each week and that there is a take-up rate of 70.6%, it will give you a date range for when you can expect to receive it.
