Britain races ahead with vaccination against Covid-19

Britain , Israel , the UAE and America are racing ahead in the race to vaccinate leaving Europe and the world behind

The UK just vaccinated more people in three days than France has vaccinated in total.

UK did 17% of all the recorded vaccinations in the world over the last two days. It's getting concerning how slow the global pace is.

Is the SNP position to leave the UK vaccination programme to join the EU vaccination programme?

We have vaccinated over 5.8 million people in the UK, with a record 478,000 first doses given in a single day yesterday.

Every jab brings us closer to defeating the virus. If you’re called for the vaccine, please do come forward. pic.twitter.com/BWO1cYcsfQ

👍The @BritishArmy are helping to set up 80 new COVID-19 vaccine centres in 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿Scotland.

98 soldiers, organised into 11 teams across Scotland, will use their expertise and training to set up the vaccine centres before handing over to NHS Scotland. pic.twitter.com/OIc5Eq0RMX

I have been very critical of the Coronavirus measures the government has brought in, however credit on this where it is due.

As much as people like to piss on the country - me included sometimes - we've made great progress.

Meanwhile in the EU a mess over vaccines.

Never forget that papers like the Guardian predicted that by leaving the EU transition period, Britain would be the one facing vaccine failures.
