Coronavirus Vaccine Rollout

Letters from the NHS began arriving the weekend of 9-10 January as the national vaccination programme “rapidly accelerates”. These letters have been sent to people aged 80 or over who live 30 to 45 minutes’ drive from one of the seven new sites, including residents who live in Buckinghamshire. The Aylesbury vaccine site at Stoke Mandeville Stadium opened 15 January. A pharmacy-led site opened at the Odeon cinema 17 January. Residents may opt to choose a local one rather than going to one of the national hubs.
