More NHS bosses now confirming their hope to start vaccination against coronavirus with the UK vaccine  in a few weeks. There are probably other countries debating this also.  Germany pretty far on with their main vaccine also.

Good news, but I think they should also prioritise Care Homes, as so many deaths have been there.   I suppose one trouble is logistics as there are far fewer hospitals than care homes.

Oxford vaccine 2 doses 4 weeks apart.


Leaked memo to NHS executive staff earlier this month, Glen Burley, chief executive of George Eliot Hospital NHS Trust in Warwickshire, wrote: 'Our Trust, alongside NHS organisations nationally, has been told to be prepared to start a Covid-19 staff vaccine programme in early December. 

'The latest intelligence states a coronavirus vaccine should be available this year with NHS staff prioritised prior to Christmas.
