The South West's vaccination programme is showing a high level of vaccines for the highest age group, but not as positive for the lower levels of vulnerable groups.

In figures published by the NHS on February 11, the figures for the region show that over 330,000 over 80s have had at least one vaccination dose across the whole region.

In other figures up to February 7 NHS England show that within Somerset itself 93.4 per cent of all of its over-70s have had a least one vaccination dose.
