How Many Vaccines In Wales Today ?

[Harry Paget Flashman]

Mate of mine was relocated to the new grange hospital in a covid ward so had his jab a few weeks ago, he was amazed to find out that office staff who never go anywhere near the wards had already secured there’s.....farcical just like boris’ dad already managed to get not only his first jab, but 2nd too.....lovely stuff to hear that

I doubt those people are jumping the queue.

It makes sense to get all NHS employees vaccinated asap as it the place that keeps us alive when we fall ill.

I guess they will have done so many is that the staff are a captive audience.

It's the same in England. Office staff, dealing with pensions and other non medical issues, who are in completely different buildings to the hospital seem to have had their jabs.

We had to contact the Thornhill surgery to get our 94 year old neighbour an appointment.

They were oblivious of her being a patient.

Good on you BT for looking out for your neighbour. There will, I guess, always be some who slip through the net.

I'm amazed there hasn't been a drive in the last year to ensure patient details are accurate and up to date.

Thw only problem with that woud be that they promised that by then everyone 70 and older plus those with underlyinghealth conditions would be done.

Had a kick up the arse and Drakeford needs room to recover after his stupid comments, see with a bit of effort we can get things done quicker, to protect lives .

And they will be if the rate for the last two days is maintained according to the BBC link I posted this morning.

Yes Bob. I sense a real ramping up last couple of days after a sluggish start and I am pretty sure they will come close to hitting targets. Which will disappoint some on here.
I am prepared to eat humble pie if I am wrong

I won’t be disappointed if they hit the targets I will be delighted. My issue is the ****wittery of their public announcements.

I've been told tonight by a local GP that Cwm Taf Morgannwg(Bridgend area) are contacting the over 70's for their vaccinations. As I mentioned earlier I'm 74 and I will be receiving my first vaccination next Wednesday.
It seems bloody unfair that some over 80's in other areas haven't been contacted yet!

6pm last night there was still a lot of people waiting outside Cwmbran stadium.

I really hope this doesn’t turn out to be true. The JCVI set out the priority list based on the clinical risk of infection, not as a perk of the job. It is immoral for any non-frontline NHS employee to make an appointment to receive the vaccine at this time.

Be aware office staff are also covering or in reserve to cover front line duties...they are not getting vaccinated as a rule (yet)

The post I quoted was replying to my earlier post when I said that non frontline NHS staff in England were receiving the vaccine which was in response to the same happening at a hospital in Wales. The fact it is in the Daily Mail doesn't automatically say it is untrue especially as the article quotes directly from named individuals.

I’ve got a family member in the NHS who has been vaccinated

They are a receptionist but do work in the same building as patients.

And just for a bit of balance I would rather our current government to run things then any in either Westminster or Scotland.

Slightest hint of snow and my 75 year old MiL stares out of the window for hours upon end.

They'd need Schnorbitz on stand by to get her to leave the house.

Wales is vaccinating the population per 100000 at the fastest rate of the 4 home countries

That's great if true. However, the rate is likely to fall over the next few days as 4 vaccination centres in Wales will close due to the weather. That's the problem with setting targets; things always get in the way but target setting is definitely the fault of the UK government virtually forcing the regional governments to follow suit.

Instead of sitting around doing nothing maybe they could send the vaccinators to the capital where it’s moving at a snails pace

A health board boss has criticised council staff for potentially sharing Covid vaccine invites with colleagues.

Potentially? How can you potentially share something? you either share it or you don't.

Another twenty four thousand vaccinations in Wales in today's figures and only 796 new cases - once again, apart from the Gwent valleys, all south Wales regions are under a hundred. Given that it's a weekend, the deaths figure of forty four remains high though.

Had an email from the nursing home my 88 year old mother is in, Cardiff, to let me know her first jab is happening tomorrow. Bit of good news
