Community Cohesion at its Best
When the national COVID-19 vaccination programme began in December 2020, it was understood that everyone should have equal access to the vaccine, as appropriate to their need, and as prioritised by the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation. Within a few weeks however, there were early indications that there were differences in uptake amongst different population groups and in different parts of the country (The OpenSAFELY Collaborative 2021).
