Data on vaccination take-up may be cross referenced by Joint Committee of Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) Priority Group, NHS Board, Local Authority, age group, and sex. These data are accessible on the vaccinations tab of the PHS COVID-19 Daily Dashboard: https://public.tableau.com/profile/phs.covid.19#!/
