Ilkley MP Robbie Moore said: “It’s great to see that so many people across Keighley and Ilkley have received the vaccine as we lead the world in our fight back against coronavirus. As well as the major regional vaccine centres, residents have been able to access vaccines at Silsden Medical Centre, Long Lee Surgery in Keighley, Spring Medical Centre in Ilkley, Airedale General Hospital and Keighley Central Mosque.


“We are defeating this virus by the hundreds of thousands of jabs going into people’s arms every day, giving us hope as we look to a route back to normality”.


The United Kingdom is leading the way with its vaccination programme. So far, more than 18.6 million people have received a vaccine – equivalent to 1 in 3 adults. This is the third highest per capita, behind only the UAE and Israel. In addition, only two countries have administered more doses than the United Kingdom – China and the USA.
