The officials leading Cumbria's response to the coronavirus pandemic say they are planning to distribute vaccines if they become available, but they are also stressing that precautions such as social distancing and hand-washing must carry on at present.

Andy Slattery, the assistant chief constable who chairs the group, says that planning is already in hand to deliver supplies, which will be administered to the most vulnerable groups, and key workers such as health clinicians, first.

The latest unemployment figures for Cumbria show a fall across all parts of the county, although officials are quick to point out they relate to a date before the new lockdown was announced.

The statistics, for 8 October, show 12,725 people claiming benefits and seeking work, down 570 on September and giving a rate of 4.3%, compared to the national rate of 6.3%.

The equivalent figure for early March was 5,795 people signing on, showing the impact of the pandemic, so unemployment has roughly doubled.

And while job vacancy rates are back to those prior to the pandemic, county council analysts note the balance of sectors recruiting is different with fewer arts, entertainment and recreation postings, and more health related ones.

People in Cumbria are being urged to keep their hospital appointments, despite the NHS having to deal with a second wave of Covid-19 infections.

The number of patients in South Cumbria's hospitals with coronavirus, is now back at the same level as it was during the peak in the spring. But the NHS says this time, rather than postponing certain procedures, it wants to continue to offer care for people with other health problems.

Cumbria's director of public health, Colin Cox, told BBC Radio Cumbria this morning that this time, the treatments available to Covid patients mean there's a bit less strain on the services.
