Out of interest which licences are those, given the current vaccinations are being supplied and used under emergency licence terms?
Current vaccines are supplied and used under temporary licence terms, not emergency.So what about vaccinating under 18s, temporary licence as per adults or not?
I would expect it to be under the same temporary licence, yes.

"Wales has now vaccinated a greater share of its total population than any other country with more than one million people. Some 67.9 per cent of the 3.1 million people living in Wales have received a jab, compared to 63.0 per cent in second-placed Israel, 56.9 per cent in Canada and 56.8 per cent in mongolia."
"Strategy consultant Paul Mainwood told the BBC last week that Wales’s success was likely due to the speed with which it had processed vaccines. The country usually administers vaccinations within a few days of receiving its allocation, compared to 10-12 days in the case of the other UK nations. "

It’s a great pity he lacks in so many other areas, the NHS here in N Wales is a great example, but there’s none so blind as those who don’t see....

I generally vote Tory and live in Monmouthshire however I have the greatest respect (and a fair bit of pride) for how Drakeford has dealt with Covid.
Anecdotally my Mother is in a care home about 5 miles up the road from me, last week was the first time in about a year that we had a face to face outdoor meeting and a hug (or should I say 'a cwtch') to date there has not been a single case of Covid for residents or carers
I wont be voting for Drakeford anytime soon but I will certainly applaud his stance and above all honesty in the way he's dealt with Covid.

It’s not Drakeford’s Covid response that entirely bothers me as much, as its clearly at the top of everyone’s priority at the moment.
What I’m more concerned about is the systemic failure of the NHS in N Wales, which started on Drakeford’s watch when he was health secretary, continued during Vaughan Gethin’s tenure, under Drakeford’s leadership, and was only ‘resolved’ ahead of the recent elections.
We now face a backlog running to years, with little or no plan of action on how to solve that issue, which if left as was, will undoubtedly kill as many if not more than Covid.

It is possible to say literally best-in-world vaccine stuff is a Good Thing and give credit where it is due, without getting a Welsh Labour membership card

NHS in a worse state going into lockdown, worse still, coming out, but hey folks, nothing to see here and Drakeford ‘has been honest’....
Personally, I think all politicians are a waste of space irrespective of political colour, hence my vote in the last election was one that was spoiled ‘none of the above’.

This will allow more events to take place indoors, and greater freedoms for people to meet and socialise indoors." https://twitter.com/fmwales/status/140055716274157...

The Covid hotspot of Wales remains Conwy where the infection rate now stands at 46.9 per 100,000 population following a cluster of cases of the Indian variant of concern in Llandudno Junction, Llandudno and Penrhyn Bay areas. Denbighshire is second with 39.7 cases per 100,000 and Swansea third with 30.8.
In terms of hospitalisations, there were 16 people in hospital beds in Wales with confirmed Covid-19 on June 11, down from 22 the day before, and there were two people in ventilated intensive care beds with the virus. The confirmed Covid-19 cases in ICU are in Cardiff and Vale UHB area and Betsi Cadwaladr UHB.
https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/health/covid-ca...
More than 400 pupils have been told to isolate after 25 coronavirus cases were ‘linked’ to 'teenage gatherings'.
An investigation had been launched into the increase in Covid cases, which had been traced to social gatherings including parties.
Denbighshire Council has confirmed that a total of three schools have been affected:
Ysgol Bryn Hyfryd, in Ruthin
Denbigh High School, Denbigh
St Brigid's School, Denbigh
A total of 428 pupils across the three schools have been told to isolate as a precaution. On Friday, Denbighshire council confirmed it was dealing with 10 "linked cases" but by Monday evening, that figure had increased to 25.
