Booster jabs: The parts of the Chichester District where the fewest over-50s have had third vaccine

Thousands of over 50's are yet to be vaccinated.

Thousands of people in the Chichester District have still not received their booster vaccine, including potentially vulnerable people aged over 50, as cases of the highly infectious Omicron variant continue to climb across the UK.

England’s booster programme has ramped up but some neighbourhoods in the Chichester District have more over-50s protected than others.

Latest figures from NHS England, which shows third injections up to December 12, shows 48,920 people aged over 50 have now received their booster in the Chichester District.

This represents 81.3 per cent of the local population, meaning 11,258 people 50 plus have yet to receive a booster or third dose.

In College Lane and Oaklands 1200 people over 50 have had their booster or third dose. This represents just 73.3 per cent of people in this age range.
