Question reference: S5W-36102

  • Asked by: Monica Lennon, MSP for Central Scotland, Scottish Labour
  • Date lodged: 11 March 2021
  • Current status: Answered by Jeane Freeman on 4 May 2021

Question

To ask the Scottish Government, further to the holding answer to question S5W-34217 by Jeane Freeman on 20 January 2021, how many doses of COVID-19 vaccine, broken down by type, have been allocated to each NHS board for each month from December 2020 to May 2021.


Answer

Data on vaccine allocation is published weekly at a national level.

As of Monday 26 April:

  • Total number of doses allocated: 4,718,140
  • Total number of doses delivered: 4,216,470

Total number of doses allocated refers to the number of doses that have been made available by Public Health England to the Scottish Government for ordering, and is the cumulative amount allocated up to 11:55 26 April 2021.

Total number of doses delivered refers to the number of doses that have been delivered from Public Health England to the ownership of the Scottish Government, and is the cumulative amount delivered by 23:59 25 April 2021.

This data is sensitive, so there is no NHS Board breakdown, however more information is available on the Scottish Government website, at: Coronavirus (COVID-19): daily data for Scotland - gov.scot (www.gov.scot).

The Scottish Government has been very clear from day one that the pace of our national vaccine programme is dependent on vaccine supply and delivery timescales. We continue to work closely across the 4 nations to ensure this is as smooth as possible.
