Following the news that preliminary studies show a coronavirus vaccine can prevent more than 90% of people from getting Covid-19, Edward Mountain MSP commented:
“This is the news we’ve all been waiting to hear. Even if the vaccine was only 50 per cent effective it would be a massive step forward to returning to some sense of normality. They are saying it is 90 per cent effective, which is a game changer.”
“It is absolutely right that Inverness should have a vaccination centre, but we also need rural vaccinating teams to deliver it across the Highlands. I would call upon the armed services to help coordinate and deliver this service.”
