10 areas in Doncaster which are falling behind in the booster rollout

Last night (12 December) Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced that everyone aged 18 and over in England will be offered a booster from this week.

The new aim is to give a booster jab to all adults by the end of the month.

Latest available data from NHS England shows almost 27.2 million people aged 18 and over have still not had a booster dose, including thousands of people in Doncaster.

In Doncaster an estimated 103,713 boosters had been administered by December 5, leaving an estimated 141,710still not fully protected against Omicron.

To hit the Government’s new target an estimated 7,458 jabs will need to be administered in Doncaster each day between now (Monday 13 December) and the end of the year to hit target.

The analysis is based on the number of days between Monday 13 December and the end of the year so figures are estimates.

Population analysis is based on figures sourced from the Office for National Statistics and are estimates.

There are geographical differences across Doncaster with some areas having administered far fewer booster shots than other areas.

Now as the Prime Minister declares an “Omicron emergency” we reveal which neighbourhoods in Doncaster are falling behind in the vaccine rollout.
