Shingles data can be found in three places:
- Dashboard - Pneumococcal and shingles vaccination data - 19 December 2023 - Pneumococcal and shingles vaccination data - Publications - Public Health Scotland
- https://publichealthscotland.scot/publications/immunisation-and-vaccine-preventable-diseases-quarterly-report/immunisation-and-vaccine-preventable-diseases-quarterly-report-july-to-september-2023-q3/#section-3-11
- [ARCHIVED CONTENT] HPS Website - Annual report: Shingles (Herpes zoster) vaccine programme in Scotland for 2017/18 (nrscotland.gov.uk).
Data over the pandemic period are not available.
For COVID and flu, data can be found here - Dashboard - Pneumococcal and shingles vaccination data - 19 December 2023 - Pneumococcal and shingles vaccination data - Publications - Public Health Scotland. It says pneumococcal/shingles but it does link to influenza/ covid-19
In accordance with FOISA s 17(1), NHS Shetland confirms that it does not hold the information regarding BCG. Data for BCG is not published as this is not a population programme and is just for individuals who are at higher risk, who are offered vaccination as identified. Therefore, there is no denominator in order to calculate an uptake.
