And they won't have enough for the whole population until the spring at the earliest.
Scotland and Wales publish stock levels (see below), but England doesn't. My conclusion above was from a two days research, lots of different news re. individual vaccine types, previous deliveries, delay from India, etc. A mess frankly. I'll try to 2/x
find a more comprehensive source later, I have to go out now. Meanwhile any help is appreciated.
Journalists could kindly ask the gov? How many vaccines do we have now and the delivery schedule? No?
Notes: only Pfizer has been approved for under 18s. Moderna applied for it a month ago with the FDA. Result any time now. UK gov should follow a month later (as with Pfizer's).

"There are concerns there are not enough Pfizer or Moderna vaccines to start vaccinating younger age any earlier."
The gov doesn't have enough vaccines to vaccinate the whole population, and won't have it before the winter. Delta is VERY contagious. Controlling it during the winter would require a full, long, expensive lockdown. Not controlling would... (cont 👇)
overwhelm the NHS.
Solution: "flatten the curve", like at the beginning of the last year, but this time instead of delaying infections they are trying to bring infections forward, to increase herd immunity via infection.

And the UK gov *KNEW* they didn't have enough vaccines 👇

As we know, Russian money penetrate the Tory party widely and deeply. We have no idea how badly. But the fact is that the weapons Johnson sent to Ukraine were decisive to defeat Putin at the battle of Kyiv. Somehow, Johnson is no longer a Putin's asset.
