More than 10,000 York people have now been vaccinated against Covid in York. But why hasn’t Yorkshire been given one of the NHS’s seven new mass vaccination centres, asks John West? (Image: The Press)
Why have Yorkshire and Humberside been ignored over regional mass vaccination centres? We should have got one at the same time as the rest of the country.

Drive-throughs aren’t practical for Covid jabs
As a volunteer at the Askham Bar vaccination centre I can tell K Exton (All Covid jabs should be given at drive-throughs, Letters, January 12) that drive-through is not practical as patients have to sit, socially distanced, for 15 minutes after the jab to ensure that there are no adverse after-effects.
People are asked to wait in their cars on arrival and are called forward in turn to ensure that at-risk queues are avoided.
