BBC analysis shows Nottinghamshire has one of the lowest rates in England of people who've had both doses of a coronavirus vaccine.

In the area covered by the Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG), 9% of over-16s have had both jabs as of last Sunday. That's the sixth lowest of any CCG in England.

For comparison, West Lancashire has fully vaccinated 22% of adults.

This isn't unexpected though because Nottinghamshire's vaccination programme got off to a slow start for first doses and then caught up, so this looks like the knock-on effect of that.

The Nottingham and Nottinghamshire CCG confirmed the numbers were to be expected following the slightly later start.

It urged people who have had their first vaccine to make sure they attend for their second dose.

A spokeswoman added: "The second dose acts as a 'booster’ jab to enhance immunity to the virus and offer a greater protection against infection.

"While a single dose of the vaccine does provide a good level of protection from the effects of Covid-19, the second dose is very important to ensure the strongest possible protection."

There is an "enormous variation" in the number of Covid-19 cases across Nottinghamshire, the county's head of public health has said.

Jonathan Gribbin said the overall picture across the county was positive, and added: "Taking the county as a whole, the rate of infection is 34 people per 100,000, with most districts and boroughs having slightly lower rates than a week ago.

"But we see an enormous amount of variation across Nottinghamshire county.

"Rushcliffe now has a rate of 5.9 per 100,000, up to Mansfield which has a rate of 98.9 per 100,000."

Mr Gribbin said about half of the positive cases were under 18, with many of secondary school age, and the other half of positive cases were from people of working age.

He added: "There is no part of the community that should see itself as exempt from the restrictions.

"Continue with all those rules and restrictions."

He emphasised that mixing with households must be limited to six people, and outdoors, and asked people to make regular asymptomatic testing part of people's weekly routines.
