Scotland falling behind other parts of UK, but first minister points to high rate in care homes
Nicola Sturgeon has come under fire from Scottish opposition parties over the country’s rate of Covid vaccinations, which is far slower than the rest of the UK.
The latest data showed Scotland’s per capita rate of vaccinations of over-18s stood at 9.4% on Monday, lower than the UK average rate for over-18s of 12.4%, with England close to reaching a first-dose vaccination rate of 13%.
