POINTE XPRESS:<\/strong> Officials in the Ministry of Health are spending time to re-calibrate the second phase of the vaccination roll-out programme because of lower than expected uptick in the first few days of the exercise.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

On Thursday, a total of three hundred and seventy-three (373) persons presented themselves to be vaccinated.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The overall figure between Tuesday and Thursday is one thousand three hundred and seventy-one.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

That contrasts with the first few days of the first rollout in March when the numbers averaged approximately two thousand, four hundred.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

Several options are currently under consideration, including one where the vaccination teams \u2018take the roll-out to the public.\u2019<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This could mean that the vaccination teams could possibly move out from the centres and meet people in areas where there are large numbers of people such as the public market or either of the two bus stations.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

No decision has yet been made on what steps the officials will take but there is an urgent desire to have more people vaccinated as this has both health and economic implications as articulated by government and health officials from time to time.<\/p>\n
