6 in every 100 people aged 50 and over in Rother yet to receive Covid jab

The NHS has hailed reaching the “home straight” of the vaccination rollout with people aged 25 and over now being invited to come forward from today (June 8), on what marks six months since the first Covid jab was administered in the UK.

Three-quarters of the adult population across England have had their first dose, while more than half are fully vaccinated.
