Scottish Liberal Democrats leader Willie Rennie asks why it is taking six weeks to get experienced NHS staff through the process of registering to help out with vaccination.

He also questions if this is why Scotland is "so far behind the rest of the UK".

Nicola Sturgeon says Scotland now has more than 9,000 registered vaccinators who are working towards being able to do 400,000 doses a week with a daily workforce of around 1700 and 970 support staff.

"We have already identified and registered the numbers we need to do this process," she says.

Vaccinating is not something that should be treated lightly, the first minister adds, and the registration process varies depending on people's previous experience.

For example. some may have lots of clinical experience without having vaccinated anyone before, she adds.

Patrick Harvie warns the phased return of some pupils to schools from 22 February poses some concerns for school staff.

The Scottish Green Party co-leader says adequate social-distancing of senior pupils will be difficult or impossible.

He argues school staff should be prioritised in terms of vaccination and demands vulnerable teachers are not required to return to class before getting their jabs.

"Yes, I would expect local authorities - who are the employers of teachers - to make sure that they put the safety of vulnerable teachers absolutely top of their agenda," replies the first minister.

"We will not compromise the safety of teachers, other school staff or young people in schools."

Ms Baillie warns of a "growing postcode lottery in vaccine rollout", which she alleges is "slowing Scotland's recovery from Covid".

She warns that City of Edinburgh, for example, is lagging far behind.

The first minister insists: "People are not being penalised because of where they live."

"All health boards are making progress," she adds.

The first minister replies: "Nothing is going wrong."

Ms Sturgeon pledges her government will look into any individual cases of people in priority groups who have not received their jab yet.

She says if you are worried about your appointment or have not had your letter yet, you can contact the vaccination helpline on: 0800 030 8013.

The letters for the over-70s and the clinically extremely vulnerable should have gone out by the end of this week.

All of those people should be vaccinated with the first dose by the middle of February.

Jackie Baillie also begins by sending her condolences to the family of Captain Sir Tom Moore and to all those families who have lost loved ones.

The Scottish Labour interim leader is concerned that some people in the earlier priority groups are being left waiting for their first dose of vaccine.

She cites the example of 96-year-old Kate who lives in Fife, and other people awaiting a jab.

Ms Baillie asks the first minister to explain what has gone wrong.

Ruth Davidson also asks the first minister if she will publish daily breakdowns of vaccination figures for each health board area, and when all six mass vaccination sites will be up and running and hitting their target of 20,000 jabs a week.

Nicola Sturgeon says the Scottish government already publishes more detailed data every day than other parts of the UK and doesn't want to over-burden officials.

But it will move towards publishing more granular breakdowns when "we are in a position to make sure that data is robust for publication".

The first minister adds that, as well as the mass vaccinations centres already open in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Aberdeen, more large-scale sites will open as and when supply allows.

She says there are still plenty of towns and villages that are vaccinating people on a daily basis, and the government is on track to vaccinate everybody in the over-70s group category by mid-February, having "exceeded" its target for the over-80s.

Ruth Davidson, leader of the Scottish Conservatives in Holyrood, highlights that vaccination figures have "dropped substantially" on the last two Sundays, and asks what is being done to tackle the problem.

Nicola Sturgeon reiterates that the Scottish government followed an approach that very deliberately concentrated on getting the most clinically vulnerable groups vaccinated first, pointing to the fact that 98% of older care home residents have received the jab.

She says UK Cabinet Office Secretary Michael Gove was not willing to give a figure for how many people in England have actually been vaccinated - rather than offered the vaccine.

The first minister says the number of people vaccinated over the past two days shows the rollout programme is accelerating.

Officials are working to ensure capacity is fully utilised every day - including Sundays - she says, and she will meet with the chief executives of health boards later today to hear what steps are being taken to make sure that is consistent seven days a week.

The prime minister says he was not made aware of a Covid outbreak at a vaccine centre in Livingston before he visited last week.

The issue was raised in Prime Minister’s Questions by SNP Westminster leader Ian Blackford who said the visit was “utterly, utterly reckless”.

The Daily Record reported Downing Street was told of Covid cases before Boris Johnson's planned trip last Thursday.

But when asked in the Commons the prime minister said “nobody raised that issue with me before or since” adding it was his job to visit every part of the country and “nothing or no one is going to stop me”.

Ian Blackford accused Mr Johnson of putting “politics before public health”.

The prime minister also repeated an offer of help to the Scottish Government with the vaccine rollout.

The first minister turns to the publication of the Independent Review of Adult Social Care, external which has called for the establishment of a National Care Service..

Derek Feeley’s report makes more than 50 recommendations for radical changes to social care in Scotland. His recommendations include:

• A National Care Service for Scotland should be established, on an equal footing to NHS Scotland, with both bodies reporting to Scottish ministers.

• Greater involvement of people with lived experience of social care support, both individually and collectively.

• National improvement programmes to raise quality in care homes, fully implement self-directed support and reform the commissioning and procurement of social care support.

As of 08:30 this morning, a total of 649,262 people in Scotland had received their first dose of the vaccine.

That is an increase of 38,484, which is the highest daily tally so far - and is 59% higher than the same day last week.

The total number includes 98% of residents in older people’s care homes. In addition, 87% of over-80s living in the community have also had their first dose.

As of this morning, 28% of people aged 75-79 have also had their first dose.

Nicola Sturgeon outlines the latest Scottish government figures, which show a further 978 people have tested positive for Covid-19.

That is 5.1% of the total number of tests carried out.

This takes the total number of positive cases in Scotland to 182,269.

There are 1,871 patients in hospital with a confirmed case (down 63), with 128 being treated in intensive care (down 12).

A further 88 people who tested positive have had their deaths registered, taking the total by that measure to 6,269.
