Question
Will the Minister state how many booster vaccinations have been administered in the Aneurin Bevan University Health Board region to date?
Answer
Answered by Minister for Health and Social Services
Aneurin Bevan University Health Board has delivered 375,417 first booster doses up to 11th May 2022. Detailed statistics are published on Public Health Wales dashboard here: Rapid COVID-19 virology - Public | Tableau Public.
In addition, the Health Board is making good progress in delivering the Spring Booster Programme to eligible residents in line with the advice of the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation and Welsh Government guidance. At the time of writing, the published dashboard data indicates that a total of 37,242 eligible individuals have received a spring booster.
The Health Board continues to offer first, second and booster doses to residents and retains a strong focus on addressing inequity by ensuring access for all eligible people including those who are traditionally under-served and hard to reach within our communities.
