We all have many questions about vaccination. In early January, we asked people to submit their questions to an expert panel. We received around 100 responses which we condensed into 18 questions. We would like to thank the expert panel for answering these questions at a time when they are working flat out to protect people not just from Covid-19, but also from other health problems, including those that peak at this time of the year.
Andy Boddington and Tracey Huffer, Shropshire Councillors for Ludlow North and East
Our panel is:
- Dr Catherine Beanland, Portcullis Surgery

Hello Andy, Thank you for all the information just received. I presume that the date 8th August 2021 (on introduction) is a typo? Probably should be 8th January.
Thanks for spotting that! It’s been a lot of editing and I am becoming blind to the text!!
