Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what estimate he has made of the percentage of the eligible population in (a) Slough (b) Thames Valley and (c) England who have been vaccinated with their (a) third and (b) booster vaccine.
The information is not held in the format requested. Information for Thames Valley is not collected, while data for the Slough local authority area and England shows a combined figure for third primary doses and booster vaccinations.
As of 6 February 2022, 63,089 adults in the Slough local authority area had received either a third primary dose or booster vaccination. Based on the Office for National Statistics’ (ONS) mid-year 2020 population estimates, this equates to 59.6% of adults in the local authority area. As of 6 February 2022, in England 31,173,736 adults had received their third primary or booster vaccination. This equates to 70.1% of adults in England, according the ONS’ 2020 population estimates.
The number of individuals identified as severely immunosuppressed who have been vaccinated with a third primary dose in England is published on an ad hoc basis. The most recent data as of 20 December 2021 shows that 87.7% of individuals identified as severely immunosuppressed had received a third primary dose.
