Corrections
Since the initial release of the October to December 2023 experimental GP vaccination coverage data, the following errors were identified and corrected.
- The data used to compile the data tables at both GP practice level and at Integrated Care Board (ICB) level for NHS Greater Manchester ICB and NHS South Yorkshire ICB was not accurate. Complete and accurate data has now been used to correct this, resulting in corrections across both the GP Code and ICB Code data tables for these affected ICBs.
- Some GP practices within the NHS Birmingham and Solihull and NHS Black Country ICBs were incorrectly grouped into the other ICB. The affected GP practices have now been grouped correctly resulting in changes across the ICB Code data table for these affected ICBs. Data presented at GP Code level was unaffected.
The corrected data tables were published on 28 June 2024.
