Letters being set to 65-70 year olds
Vaccinations will continue to be delivered during the 21-day circuit break lockdown.
Additional measures will be put in place to protect staff and patients.
Invitation letters will be sent out this week to the next priority group – that’s residents aged between 65 and 70.
A pop-up clinic will also be held this month for adults with learning disabilities.
The top three priority groups on the Island have now received their first jab - all care home residents and workers have been given at least one vaccination.
Care home and housebound vaccinations will continue as planned during the lockdown.
Speaking yesterday Chief Minister Howard Quayle said he didn’t want the climbing number of coronavirus cases to derail the vaccine programme:
Lack of opportunity to study science 'could be impacting future doctors'
