Mark Drakeford has outlined the current planning being done for coronavirus vaccinations in future. The First Minister was speaking as he gave the final Welsh Government Covid press conference announcing the end of all restrictions. See full coverage here.
Mr Drakeford said that the advice of the UK-wide medical body the JCVI, the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation, would inform future Welsh Government decisions on vaccinations and that at the moment it "seems unlikely" that the majority of people in Wales will receive an additional Covid jab this year.
Most people in Wales have now had at least three jabs of vaccine and this has been the main driver behind falling death rates. People with medical vulnerabilities may have had as many as five doses of a Covid jab already.
