Just 800 vaccines are due to be delivered to the Altrincham Health and Wellbeing Centre this week as supply issues continue to dog the local roll-out of the coronavirus vaccine.

A total of 1,700 patients attached to the Altrincham Healthcare Alliance Primary Care Network received a first jab over last Thursday and Saturday, the same number as the week before.

The 60-strong vaccination team, led by Clinical Director Dr Maz Sangha, is currently only vaccinating on two days a week and are therefore able to increase capacity according to supply.
