Number of coronavirus vaccination locations in the UK 2021

In mid-January, there will be about 1,200 COVID-19 vaccination sites in the United Kingdom. This vaccination program, described as the biggest in NHS history, aims at offering jabs to most care home residents by the end of January and the most vulnerable by mid-February. Vaccinations will be available at over a thousand general practitioner-led sites, 223 hospitals, and seven mega centers. These centers will be capable of delivering thousands of vaccinations each week.

Furthermore, the UK has plans to step up capacity even further in the coming weeks, bringing 200 pharmacy-led pilot sites and a further 43 mass vaccination centers into play. That would take the total number of coronavirus vaccination hubs to about 1,500. The first seven mega centers will open in Birmingham, Bristol, London, Manchester, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Stevenage, and Surrey.
