Every day the vaccine rolls out

And unfortunately we're doing less than half the number of vaccinations per day than we were doing four weeks ago.

It'd be interesting to know why this is. Is it supply issues? Are fewer folk presenting for vaccination when asked?

It’s mainly production and supply issues TTT. If I remember correctly both current manufacturers reconfigured their production facilities which was going to mean an initial reduction in capacity but then a much increased rate of manufacture thereafter. That’s done now as far as I’m aware so things should ramp up again pretty quickly. Additionally the first supply of the third approved vaccine from Moderna is scheduled to kick in from the beginning of April so taking availability of this additionally into account, rates of vaccination should start to increase quite significantly through April.
