I may have picked up that, while UK.GOV is claiming big numbers of vaccines delivered(or is it offered?), it appears that uptake may be lagging way behind in the percentages up here!

    Today in Scotland has seen vaccine dose 1 No 2mil administered today. Tomorrow should see vaccine Dose 2 no 200k administered as well, so fantastic effort from all.

    Vaccination progress by age group.
    Over 80s, 97.5%
    75-79, 99.6%
    70-74, 100%
    65-69, 97.3% (97.2)
    60-64, 66.5% (59.2)
    55-59, 42.5% (41.5)
    50-54, 34.3% (33.7)
    40-49, 25.8% (25.4)
    30-39, 18.4% (18.2)
    16-29, 11.5% (11.3)
    I'm probably being thick here and maybe it's been explained before but what does 100% mean? There's no way that all 70-74 year olds in Scotland have been vaccinated so what does this figure actually signify?

    Your gonna have to get in touch with the NHS, but to me 100% can only mean that 100% of 70-74 year olds have been vaccinated. This is only dose 1 info i bring to you, but once i see sufficient progress in Dose 2 reporting, i will start showing that as well. For example, 80+ is now at 9.1% dose 2 and rising quite slow because the bulk of care homes are being dealt with. Because 70-74 are in that no mans land of not working and less likely to be in care homes, they are only 1.2% dose 2 vaccinated, where age groups between 16-64 are showing higher percentages because they are of working age.
