Llangollen Health Centre has this morning (Friday) given an update on the local vaccination situation, which says:
"We’ve had news that the supply of vaccines is going to improve considerably over the next few weeks which is fantastic. That’s not to say that there won’t be any blips but we are cautiously optimistic that we will be receiving an increased supply over the next month or so.
"Welsh Government has set a target for all patients in Groups 1 – 9 to be offered a vaccine by mid-April and I can assure everyone that we will be working our socks off to hit this target, as long as we get the vaccines.
"These are the groups we have still to do:
Group 5 – currently booking these in
Group 6 – 16-64 with underlying conditions*
Group 7 – patients aged 60 – 64
Group 8 – patients aged 55 – 59
Group 9 – patients aged 50 – 54
"All the above should be offered an appointment by mid-April depending on vaccine supply. I’m afraid at this stage we cannot be any more specific than that. We will have a rolling programme of vaccination clinics and we will work our way through the groups in order as quickly as we can.
"Please be patient – we will contact you when it is your turn.
"I will continue to update everyone as we get to the end of each group, so if someone thinks they have been missed, they will have the opportunity to let us know.
"Thank you for your continued support and cooperation.

Practice Manager
