Sunday vaccine update:
517k doses reported, down due to second doses falling (they've dropped back below 1st dose volumes in the last couple of days).
1st doses of 280k are only up 7%, but the 7D total is pushing up towards 1.5m a week which is good to see.
1/
An update on 1st doses at younger ages, shows most of the UK is now heading towards 75% in the 30-39 group.
Under 30 W is very close to 70% whereas the other nations still have some way to go to reach that level.
So W has nearly completed 1st doses for all who want it.
2/
Over recent days there's been little progress in W and E in the 30-39 group suggesting we're reaching the level of take-up we're going to see.
S in contrast looks to still be pushing ahead, and NI is lagging somewhat.
3/
Under 30 W is also slowing down, but looks as though it will just hit 70% before 1st doses are complete.
Others are advancing much faster as you would expect, being further behind.
4/
Back to 2nd doses, 236k is down a third on last week, which is to be expected as we mirror a very slow period of 1st doses in mid-April. Allowing for an element of reduced take-up we're now fairly close to an 8 week average delay.
