A Question From a Network Member

Alison James from Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust asks:

'In March we ordered 6,000 flu vaccines.  To date we have received 2,500 and an indication that the next delivery from the manufacturer will not be until November.  Meantime we are under pressure from the Board and the CCG to vaccinate as many frontline staff as possible.  Is anyone else having difficulty with their vaccine supply and if so does anyone know the reason?  I can’t believe we are, once again, scratching around for flu vaccines just as we have everyone very very keen to have it!  Thanks everyone.'
