Question
Will the Minister confirm how many doses of COVID-19 vaccines the Welsh Government currently has in stock?
Answer
Answered by Minister for Health and Social Services
Welsh Government has a COVID-19 vaccine supply agreement in place with the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) who centrally store and distribute, on request, to health board locations in Wales. The number of vaccines available across the UK is sufficient to support the vaccination programme and is allocated using the Barnett formula. This agreement is applicable for all COVID-19 vaccine products, including future variant vaccines.
