I'm not sure that stands up.
The original vaccination 'penetration' was rightly measured against the numbers in age range cohorts as they became eligible.
We're now being called on dates that are, give or take recent adjustments, 6 months after vaccination #2 in the first phase. If you count those passing the six month threshold and subtract those who've actually had the booster then the rest is just manipulating the numbers to give percentages; even I could do that.
My vaccination #2 was in late May. I got a text over the weekend inviting me to book for the booster and was offered dates later this month. Initially booked c21-11 but had to re-jig as we're now going to our daughter's that weekend.
