The ONS estimate for the population aged 12 and over, which is 48,375,273. With 43,250,509 first doses having been given in England, that would leave an estimated 5.1 million eligible people who have not received a dose of vaccine.

The NIMS figure for the population aged 12 or over is 54,328,630, which would leave around 11 million eligible people in England who have not received a dose of vaccine.

I was stressing that there is still a large percentage of people who are not fully vaccinated. One dose was shown not to be sufficient. Then two. And those that have not yet had the third or booster are at far greater risk and have been a source of new mutations.

Between 5.1 million and 11 million. Those are numbers not to be sniffed-at. And evidence is showing that it's mostly those unvaccinated who are laid-up in critical care wards because of covid.
